You have a spot. You need to get rid of it by tomorrow. What do you do?

[gaggiagirl]

Throw your best, most reliable, foolproof, spot be gone remedies at me! I want the fuckers gone! Lets share tips.

(disclaimer: I look like I have mozzy bites on top of red sore skin. I'm pregnant and cried at the mirror this morning)

Oh I forgot to add my tip.
Sudocrem.
Although nothing is helping my face at the moment.

I go for metanium - more hardcore ; )

Put some toothpaste on it overnight (my SIL recommended this, I thought she was mental but it really helped)...

Metanium is pretty good I agree.

LaRoche Posay Effaclur duo. Amazing stuff.

Where does one buy metanium?

metanium is nappy rash cream, chemist or supermarket.

I use witch doctor again you can buy it at the chemist or supermarket x

Go for an anti-inflammatory pain killer along with toothpaste (it dries it out).

Toothpaste

A dollop of mud mask on it overnight

Whereismycoffee - you can get metanium in the baby section of most supermarkets or chemists. It's a nappy rash cream that comes in a yellow box. It's quite stinky and a very unpleasant yellow colour but does work on spots (and nappy rash).

Plain white toothpaste

Definitely toothpaste. Dries the fuckers right up.

Does fancy toothpaste (whitening/ breath freshening , all that jazz) work, or does it have to be basic stuff?

I used to open my dad's bottle of Givenchy, place the mouth of the bottle over the spot then tip my head back. Stung (and stank) like a goodun but worked. Givenchy is evil stuff.
Sorry dad.

Another vote for toothpaste. Works every time, even on those horroble, under the skin ones

*horrible

fast I did the same with my mams Chanel no5. Sorry mam!
I'm going to have a crack at the toothpaste tonight.

Sudocreme is my go to spot treatment

Avene Cicalfate, antibacterial but does not dry your skin up (that's what causes scars).

dab with dettol diluted with hot water before you go to bed. I find that works better than Sudocreme.

Don't forget the painkiller as it reduces the inflammation. They actually sell spot cream now with anti-inflammatories in it but I can't remember the brand.

Same thing works for sunburn in case you ever need to know.

Mush a soluble aspirin into a paste then apply to the spot overnight.

twinkle I have la Roche posay cicaplast, is it similar, tell me more.

What anti inflammatory pain killers would you all recommend? Is paracetamol ok?

Definitely toothpaste.
