So many pimples, so little time for them to heal. It doesn’t matter whether you’re 15 or 45, a bad blemish can pop up at any time. While you’d love to zap that zit, you may be left with the next best thing — hiding the meddlesome mark. There are things you can do when the blemish rears its ugly head. The first thing you’ll want to do is the dull the appearance. Apply toothpaste to said spot and let it sit overnight or for a few hours if you’re pressed for time. For a more immediate fix, apply a few drops of Visine to the spot. This should alleviate some of the redness. There are plenty of homemade remedies that are said to eradicate pimples. Mash up a piece of garlic and apply it to the face, avoiding the eye area. Let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes before washing face with a warm cloth. Another effective mixture combines one teaspoon of cinnamon powder and one teaspoon of lemon juice. Applying grated potatoes to the affected area can also cure pimples. One of the hottest new devices is the Zeno, a contraption that heats the area to draw out the blockage.But prepare to pay a hefty price – the Zeno will set you back about $225. Of course, skeptics maintain that the same results can be achieved with a washcloth and some hot water. While you may not always be able to make your mark disappear altogether, you can cover it up. Start off by washing your hands. Coat a concealer brush with liquid cover-up. Push the brush into the zit and gently give it a twist. Do this until the pimple is completely covered. Use your finger to tap the edges of the pimple and blend in with concealer. Add the same color of liquid cover-up to your face and blend it in to the pimple’s perimeter. Dip your finger into the powder cover-up and tap it on top of the pimple. For best results, purchase a product that doesn’t have salicylic acid.
