pop-it and you'll get this huge crater on your face. just use concealer or those neutrogena 'on-the-spot' acne treatment tinted ointments...

try clearacil, or clearacel, however you spell it...... It works well if you wash your face about 3 times a day to get all the oil off, then put on the clearacil stuff. Just make sure you wash with soap before bed, and as soon as you get up, it will be mostly gone my then hopefully....... Make it colder in your house so that you don't sweat as much.

These forums are soo funny......

Alum, as found in a styptic pencil, will dry out a zit faster than anything else, according to a young co-worker of mine. Styptic pencils are normally used to stop the bleeding of shaving cuts, and are found in the shaving supply aisle of most large drugstores.

Quit bothering it if it won't pop - put an ice cube on it to reduce any swelling and just keep it clean - in two days it'll be gone or near gone...

If you have this date, then I don't think a thing like a zit is going to trash it - unless YOU let it.....

Smack yourself in the head with a baseball bat, go and get stitches from the emergency room, and then tell your date you got beaned in the head playing baseball.

Use some Visine drops to take out the redness if you can't pop it (it works!), then dab some hydrogen peroxide on it to disinfect it and make it dry up faster.

Edit: If you absolutely have to pop it (if it's starting to be so big it hurts and it hasn't come to a complete head yet), take a sterilized needle or pin and gently prick it, then apply a hot washcloth to it to draw it out. You can gently squeeze to help, but don't squeeze it really hard - you'll just make it worse and it'll never heal by your date.

I'm not speaking from experience or anything ;)

The ones that you tried to pop, but can't will grow to become the biggest, nastiest, puss-filled zits you will ever witness!

j/k :p

That's the best advice.

You can remove some of the redness in the event it won't pop by putting some Visine or similar eye allergy drops on it. Redness comes from blood and the ingredients in allergy drops restricts those blood vessels. It works.

One of the best kept secrets in the entertainment industry. :D
