avoid lights, hide in the shadowsHow can i reduce the redness of my spot by tonight?
Toothpaste will dry it out and ease some of the redness.
Do not pop it or pick it anymore.
I find that using a powder to conceal it rather than a liquid is more effective aswell.
Apply an antiseptic to reduce the inflammation TCP, savlon or cold sore cream work well
I got this advice from a photographer. The eye drops to reduce redness works on spots too!
There is a clean%26amp;clear product that you put on and it reduces the redness in four hours, Its available in superdrug and costs about 拢3. I have used it before now when I needed to get rid of a spot for a night out and it worked quite well. I would also say, don't touch it! Touching it will only get bacteria in it and it will swell more.
Concealer will cover it up temporarily and will hopefully make it look less red. Good luck!
Wear a balaclava or to be really stylish try the new ski masks they sell these days. They come in a range of styles and colours.
Rubbing Alcohol on it with a cotton ball.
Toothpaste. Not a gel. Arm %26amp; Hammer paste works miracles.
It depends. If you have all day to yourself and no-one is going to see you, then keep putting sudocreme on it (the white cream, can be used for baby's bums, burns etc), little and often, and that should take redness down.
If you are going out (and therefore cant walk around with a big white blob on your face!), use eye brightening drops on the spot - I use Eyedew. They take away redness fast! Then you can use concealer, make-up etc. but trust me, the above tips really do work!
As long as you squeezed the spot properly (didnt dig in, used clean fingers and tissue etc) then you should be ok, its better to get the gunk out, or they take ages to heal. Hope this helps!
put ice into a towel and press it on!
seal it with a gel moisturiser then conceal with make up.
I know this is going to sound daft, but in my youth - when there were few spot products for sale - we used to use toothpaste!! To dry spots up and reduce redness
Just a dab on each spot and leave to dry.
I have never found a spot product that works better and while I don't get spots anymore my daughter uses this.
However for full effectiveness you need to leave it on for a few hours and most of us put it on the spots before going to bed and washed it off in the morning - but if you need to look your best for this evening you could just pop it on when you have an hour of privacy and have a lie down until you wash it off - you will look better this evening if you have a lie down anyway
sudocrem heals things fast. Put some on just now and hopefully by tonight it will be less red.
