Other than learning on how to cure your pimples, you must know when you can pick and when you cannot pick, and how to pick your pimple if necessary. ALWAYS wash your hands before touching your face, even if you are about to wash your face, but this is especially important when going in to pick a pimple. While picking a pimple is not recommended, sometimes we all must.

When you have a white-headed pimple, they are okay to “pick,” but technically that is not the correct word. You simply want to brush your CLEAN nail across the tip. If you cannot get it this way, then try to pop it, but only using ONE finger. Do not squeeze, just simply try to open the tip. If you cannot do it this way, then definitely leave it alone, it will look worse, believe it or not, if you do not leave it. Always wash your hands and face again after a pimple is popped, even if you are going to do another one.

If your pimple is swelling, apply cold ice to it. This will numb it, but at the same time reduce the swelling, making it less noticeable.


As you are finding the perfect way to cure your acne, keep in mind prevention as well. It is easier to keep away pimples, than it is to get rid of them. Keep a healthy balanced diet, and continue to wash your face regularly. Drink plenty of water and fruit juices, while eating fruits and vegetables. Avoid sugar and fatty foods, they will clog your pores.
Also, to prevent more acne from occurring, you must follow precise steps on how to wash your face. At first when wetting your face, you should either steam your face or just wash it with very warm water. Once you have applied your wash to your face and you have completed your treatment, you will want to rinse your face with COLD water. Warm water allows your pores to open up, allowing you to clean them. Cold water will close your pores, to protect them from incoming dirt or bacteria.
