To help you out, we’ve listed down 10 simple tricks on how to get rid of pimples and prevent breakouts!<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Don’t Pop That Pimple<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With Dr. Pimple Popper’s satisfying videos, it may seem tempting to pop that pesky sucker. Unfortunately, touching your face with unwashed hands can make your pimple worse.<\/strong> It can push more bacteria deeper into your skin<\/strong> and if too abrasive, can even cause a permanent acne scar.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Check the Makeup Label<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Check

Choose makeup products that are labeled, “non-comedogenic.”<\/strong> We know, big word. These beauty products, however, are kinder to the skin because they are specially formulated not to clog pores.<\/strong> But if you really want to get rid of your acne in a jiff, you might want to go sans makeup<\/strong> until the pimple goes away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Switch Your Pillowcase<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Washing or changing out your pillowcase can be life-changing.<\/strong> Since pillowcases collect all that oil, dirt, and dead skin<\/strong> buildup from your hair, direct contact with your face may cause your pimple to worsen or even multiply. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
4. Use Essential Oils<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tea tree oil may be your magic antidote for combating acne. Known for its natural anti-inflammatory properties<\/strong>, studies say that this essential oil can reduce the size <\/strong>and<\/strong><\/em> redness of your pimple.<\/strong> Use a Q-tip, dab it on your stubborn bump, and voil<\/em>\u00e0! Blemish, be gone! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
5. Purchase Pimple Patches<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

People swear by this zit-zapping product. These semi-permanent patches contain hydrocolloid<\/strong>, an absorbing gel that draws out pus and other impurities<\/strong> from your pimple. Other than how satisfying it is to see all that gunk come to a head, your pimple will disappear in no time!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
6. Try Out a Bentonite Clay Mask<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With a cult following and thousands of 5-star reviews on Amazon, the Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay Mask works wonders on deep-cleaning all skin types.<\/strong> The negatively charged ions in the clay are said to attract and surface any toxins<\/strong> in the skin. Plus, it also contains magnesium, silicate, copper, iron, and potassium \u2013 all of which promote great skin. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Insider Tip:<\/strong> Instead of mixing the mask with water, try using Apple Cider Vinegar. It has anti-inflammatory properties that are great for the skin.  <\/pre>\n\n\n\n
7. Be Mindful of What You Eat <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What you put in your body matters, especially when it’s causing your skin to breakout. Dairy contains cow hormones that stimulate your pores and oil glands, leading to pimples.<\/strong> On the other hand, foods like salmon and kale<\/strong>, which contain anti-oxidants and vitamins can help boost skin health. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
8. Chug Down Some Water<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Chug

We know you’ve heard it all before, but a tall drink of water can be a game changer. Drinking 8 to 10 glasses a day flushes out toxins, excess sodium and sugar, and other acne-inducing bacteria<\/strong> that may be clogging your pores. It’s simple: keep a jug around you at all times or use an app to track your water-drinking habits, and your skin will thank you later. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
9. Get That Beauty Sleep<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You might want to stop binge-watching your favorite K-Drama and get that shut-eye for a change. Losing sleep can cause stress and trigger your skin to produce more sebum<\/strong>, which can aggravate your pimples. 7-8 hours of sleep can be a great natural treatment for your spots. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
10. See a Dermatologist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At the end of the day, self-medicating can only get you so far.<\/strong> If you suffer from cystic acne, you’ll know that natural remedies and even over-the-counter spot treatments sometimes aren’t enough. Consulting a professional is the best option<\/strong> for finding out what’s specifically causing your acne and how to address it with doctor-recommended skin regimens.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
