I use Stridex pads at night and that helped me when I first started getting acne. Now, not so much(part of me is convinced that it's causing some of my acne now). Rubbing alcohol can also help. I apply it a few times a day(every hour or so, depending on how bad the zit I'm applying to is).
I ussually don't pop them, if anything when the puss starts to form I'll pick at it. It's not the best idea though. Acne form because dirt, bacteria, etc. is in your skin and the puss forms when the White Blood Cells are working on getting rid of it. If you pop it before it's ready then there's a chance the WBCs weren't done and that the bacteria or whatever will still be in your skin. At least I think that's how it works, I learned it in my Physiology class last year but it was pretty early on, some of it may be innaccurate.

thanks cuz my dad was like "wow you should start popping those". i was tempted to say no but i didnt know if i should or not. and yeah it makes sence not to pop cause then more bacteria can get in. duh why didnt i think of that before well thanks for replying i really appreciate it.

i dont think you should cuz they leave horrible scars. :( i have two on my face they look like tiny dents from scraping of the skin. you should use some acne product to cleanse your skin. and then use some kinda medicated cream to get rid of em like benzoyl peroxide 5% or 10%. that was what my doctor recommended. lol. :D hope it works out for ya! :) good luck.

I have somewhat of an OCD that I need to pop each and every single one (and I have a lot). My advice is don't: you could accidentally make them bleed, and popping in general makes you look a lot worse, usually. Now all I have to do is try to stop, and I'll be good.

id just wash your face alot, poping them may leave really bad marks on your face,
