But once in a while, I do get the odd one in target areas, and they really bug me. BAM, you wake up with a big mountain of puffy red-ness for all the world to see. What do you do?
First step, as tempting as it may be, is not to touch it. Just imagine how much unseen dirt is on your hands (ever heard the fact that toilet seats are cleaner than your fingers, I know, gross!).
If the temptation is too much, then touch it if you must... Don't pop it until it looks really icky and yellow (gross, again)
Second step. I personally don't use any spot remover creams, lotions, blah blah blah, because I'd rather spend my mony on multi-functional products.
SUDOCREME.
Yes, you hear me right! This little bad boy is my number 1 product for getting rid of spots. Lathering it on over night does the trick to reduce its size and red-ness, but what about those early morning rush outs? Blending it in and letting it settle on your skin all day can really help reduce it, and using it at night as well? Perfect result.
My favourite product of the century? Vaseline. After the whole sudocreme fiasco is done and dusted, time to sort out the dry-ness. Vaseline has got to be my all-time, top of the list product EVER. Why? Because it's amazing. I have every kind - pot, tin, cocoa, you name it, I'll have it.
The more, the merrier. But be warned, don't use it if you are going out all day, you don't want to look like a deep-fat fryer.
Third and most crucial step. Don't, under no circumstances, apply any make-up to it! The only thing you're doing is making it worse. Let it breathe, give it some air. Not to mention that it looks really bad, all dry and flakey (which the Vaseline will sort out). I know it's hard walking out the door with a red dot in the middle of your face, but you'd rather have it for a day or two than a week, right?
Ta-da! I hoped this helped you, because it sure does work for me.
