You have a big plan for tomorrow and all you want is to look gorgeous for the entire day, but all of sudden you spot a pimple which has a reputation of appearing at the most inopportune moment. So, cancelling your big plans for a little pimple sounds very inappropriate; appearing with a pimple on your face doesn’t fit in your plans either.
If you are one of those who need some very quick remedies to get rid of this party spoiler, here are some very useful and convenient tips to help you get rid of pimples overnight:
- Ice
Ice improves your blood circulation, freezes the skin pores and also helps in removing the accumulated dirt and oil from your skin. Take an ice cube or some crushed ice, wrap it up with a piece of cloth and place it over your pimple for 20 or 30 seconds. Repeating this process for a few times during the day will reduce the swelling and help you in getting rid of the pimple overnight.
- Honey
Honey is a natural ingredient, which contains antibiotic elements that enhances the healing process of the pimple and prevents further infection. Apply honey over your pimple with a clean cotton swab or with your hand and leave for 30 minutes before washing it off with lukewarm water. This process will reduce the inflammation and swelling associated with pimples, and would make it look less visible.
- Lemon
Lemon juice is another very effective natural ingredient for treating pimples. It is rich in Vitamin C, which effectively makes the pimple disappear in a very short time. Apply fresh lemon juice over the affected area before going to bed and wash it off with lukewarm water the next morning. It will make your pimple dry faster and will heal it quickly.
- Steam
Steam is good for your overall skin, especially when you suffer from pimples. It opens up your skin pores and removes dirt, oil and bacteria that usually remains trapped in your pores. For a quick steam therapy at home, fill a large container with hot water and make your face feel the steam for some time. After repeating the process for a couple of times, wash off your face with lukewarm water and apply an oil free moisturizer over your face.
- Garlic
Garlic is a natural antiviral, antiseptic, antifungal and antioxidant agent, which hastens the process of healing of pimples. It is also rich in sulphur, which is a very effective element in treating pimples. Cut a fresh garlic clove into two pieces, rub it over the affected area and wash it off after five minutes with lukewarm water. Repeating this process several times during the day will make the pimple disappear quickly and will also prevent the appearance of ugly scars.
