Help! Pimples On Chest
You are all ready for your trip to the beach tomorrow. You've got your swim suit, your suntan lotion and OH NO, you've got pimples on your chest. It is too late for prevention, you need to know how to get rid of pimples on chest NOW!
Relax, although it may not be possible to get rid of all pimples on chest overnight, there are things you can do to minimize them or at least make them less noticeable. Here are a few suggestions.
Take a hot shower and wash using an exfoliating soap. This will open your pores and remove dead skin. Immediately after you bathe the pimples may appear redder and more swollen, but this just your body doing its job fighting the infection. By the time your skin cools they may disappear entirely or at least be much smaller and less noticeable.
Use pore strips. These handy little strips work like a charm. Just place them over the affected area, wait a few minutes and pull them off. They should pull all the dirt, oil and dead skin out of your pores.
You can also use a topical kind of treatment that contains benzoyl peroxide. The ingredients in the product get rid of the bacteria that causes pimples and it is best to use it right after you have showered so it can penetrate into your open pores and get to work on the pimples.
If those methods do not take care of the pimples, you can apply a bit of cover up to the pimple. Just be careful, some cosmetics will clog your pores and create more pimples.
Don't be tempted to pop a pimple. This will only spread the infection and leave you with a red, swollen scab, which is often more noticeable than the original pimple.
Most important, remember that the people you are going to be spending time probably have some pimples on their chest as well, and most people do get them at some point.
