I have to share this tip for spots

If you've got a nasty one coming up, put a bit of blister plaster on it overnight and it sucks all the nasty out of it and makes it look a hundred times better.

Did everyone know this? It makes me so happy. It's the only thing I've ever done that really makes a dramatic difference. Way better than sudocrem or toothpaste.

I currently have the most massive break out. usually I would be desperate and embarrassed and I know the scarring would last for weeks if not months. Now, cool as a cucumber. No problem.

Apparently they sell tiny ones but i can't find them. I just cut up a big one though.

I can't thank the poster whose told me as I can't remember her name but I thought I would kind of do it by passing it on.

You should. Everyone should! It's great.

You can buy tiny spot-sized "blister plasters" too. Search for acne patches and make sure they're marked as hydrocolloid ones. Mine are from COSRX. :)

I buy the cold sore Penso patches they are expensive but brilliant at getting rid of spots and you can even wear them in the day out and about as they are pretty invisible. I prefer compelled ones to Boots own brand.
