get a cortisone shot from a doctor ... it will bring them down in a day, or use BP and aspirin mask for spot treating. |

The only thing that works on mine quickly is massaging tea tree oil into them 3-4 times a day. Don't try squeezing or picking, they'll get huge!! |

The one thing that has ever helped ME shrink a painful pimple bump literally overnight is Decleor Ylang-Ylang Balm.
That stuff is phenomenal. |

DEFINITELY go for the cortisone shot. You will wake up with them completely gone. |

Rubbing alcohol????!! Don't put anything drying on it, it will just make it worse. Apply some hydrocortisone to it topically, the strongest you can find with aloe (Aveeno makes one)-- this will help with redness. I'm never a fan of spot treatments, but you could try layering one over moisturizer. A mask with kaolin is the best spot treatment I've ever used, way better and less harsh than a product with a high percentage of bp or salicylic product, which tend to dry out your skin rather than the pimple.
And, um, remember to put your concealor in your purse before the reunion. Good luck! |

I just recently got the PSF ACNE MUD. Put it on overnight and in the morning it will be almost gone! Give it 2 days and it will have disappeared. This stuff is amazing. |
