It sounds like a basic question - it's been bugging me.

I use to think that one should not moisturize the area but when I looked at the pimple I have, I realise the skin around it is so dry it looks shrivelled. It looks awful!!! Embarassed It doesn't help that I normally have dry skin and am trying to "kill" Bad Grin the pimple with a big dose of DDF's Therapeutic Sulphur on it every night.

Appreciate your insights, ladies.

I don't until the skin around the pimple starts looking dry. Then I do moisturise over them.... but.... then I take some astringent (rubbing alcohol etc) and dab some just on the very top of the pimple. It's weird I know, and I have no idea if it helps but that's what I do. Other times when I can't be bothered with the q-tips I just dab MDF Clearing Complex on it over the moisturiser.....

Thanks Mabsy. I tried MD's Clearing Complex - doesn't seem to work for me, arggghh. I guess I'll start the moisturizer now. This pimple is driving me to the point of obsession - I look at it every 1 minute (through the vanity mirror) even when I drive!!!
