Acne:
Myths and Truth
D
O: Reduce Swelling With Ice
For swollen pimples, gently apply ice for a minute or so. It doesn’t work for everyone, but there’s no harm in trying. Just don’t keep the ice on so long that it irritates your skin.
D
ON’T: Squeeze Your Pimples
When a whitehead seems to beckon, “Squeeze me,” it’s best to resist. If you squeeze pimples, they take longer to heal, and you raise your risk of infection and scarring. An opened-up pimple is also harder to cover with makeup because you’re dealing with a ragged surface instead of a smooth one.
D
O: Apply a Sulfur-Based Cream
Look for over-the-counter acne remedies with benzoyl peroxide or sulfur and resorcinol that can reduce your blemish. You may not get immediate or dramatic results, though.Acne treatments may dry or irritate the skin. Check with your
dermatologist before combining products or using more than the product label recommends.
D
ON’T: Apply Toothpaste
Save the toothpaste for your teeth. Although some ingredients in toothpaste might help dry out pimples, toothpaste can trigger acne. To make matters worse, the fluoride and whitening ingredients could cause an allergic reaction when applied to the skin.
D
O: Try Tea Tree Oil
Tea tree oil can kill bacteria. Some people use it to treat minor skin irritations, including acne. There isn’t much research on how effective it is, but tea tree oil is safe to put directly on your skin in a diluted form. Try it on a small area first to make sure you don’t have an allergic reaction.
D
O: Use Full-Coverage Concealer. When acne strikes
right before your wedding or other
big event, it’s no time for wimpy concealer. Use a product with enough pigment to hide pimples with just a thin coat.
D
ON’T: Camouflage with Accessories. If your pim-

er that’s too light or too dark can make a pimple stand out more. Try mixing two shades of concealer to make a custom blend that’s a precise match for your skin. Be careful to blend the edges of the concealed area to create a seamless line with the surrounding skin. Use the same custom blend for touchups throughout the day. c
