How to Get Rid of Unwanted Acne Overnight

For me, having to relive my worst acne moments is the last thing I want to talk about. I know there are people out there who have had far worse stories, and still have to deal with it in some capacity.

You ever just go to bed and after the next morning of waking up you see a random bump on your face? You ask yourself “Why of All Days is this happening”.

About right now, I’m starting to sound a lot like the people advertised the Neutrogena or Proactive commercials. But believe me these this thing do happen. And when the do you have to be prepared. I know that having something bothersome as bump on your face is the last thing that you want to see.

Even if a bump does come up from time to time, I don’t get discouraged. Because I know that it’ll eventually disappear. I do, have a few over the counter products that will serve well in case of emergencies.

Dr. Sheffield's ClearZit Acne Cream

I used to be one of these people that had a certain perception about certain items. If its inexpensive it obviously doesn’t work. This was my initial thought when I laid eyes on the Clear Zit by Sheffield Laboratories. The Clear Zit tube is literally no bigger than the palm of my hand. The Clear Zit is made of 10% Benzoyl Peroxide and promises to dry and clean skin.

Best tip when using Clear Zit: When you introduce your skin to a new product,always use with caution.

Apply the Clear Zit on before bed. Only apply a little dab of the white cream. Now the Clear Zit may tingle at first. But if it gets to the point where it’s bothering you, please wash it off immediately.

You can buy the Clear Zit at your local department store or online for only $1.00.

Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque

I have to thank my sister for introducing me to this next product. The Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque($3.99). I didn’t let its name phase me whatsoever. Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque is a versatile skin care product that helps dry unwanted acne pimples, reduce blackheads and shrink pores.

Apply a even coating of the mask, and let it dry for no longer than fifteen minutes. After the fifteen minutes are over, wash the mask off with warm water.

Another alternative for using Queen Helene Mint Julep is to apply just a dab on the spot of the acne.

Note: The Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque is difficult to remove. So the best thing to do is get a face cloth, and rub it off gently.

I say that both Clear Zit and Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque are consistent when it comes to drying up bumps. It’s effective, and honestly you save just as much as you would with a high dollar skin care item.
