Help! White pimple on tip of nose - need a miracle solution…

[KittyCorncrake]

Have been just applying charcoal face mask /no difference.
Please can anyone recommend summat effective?
I look like a witch/cartoon character…

Have you tried pimple patches?

If it’s white it needs squeezing, then it’ll go down and dry up quickly.

salicylic acid based washes and topical solutions are ideal to dry it out (boots, Superdrug)

I always used a hot compress until the white head broke on its own, then a bit of savlon. Edit: do not squeeze

Pop it. Break the skin above it with a sterilised needle first to minimise the squeezing needed. Extra points if you take photos and post them in sporner corner!

Spot dots or similar.

Pop it or apply a pimple patch.

Put some hand sanitizer on it.

I’d 100% be popping that with a sterilised needle, then squeezing, irrespective of whether it was a good idea or not :);

Pop...squeeze ..sudocrem

Pimple patch.

Too scared to squeeze

😂

😂

Use a needle then a pore strip. DH had a milia years ago that I did that to. It came out like a perfect tiny pearl. Sigh. Then it fell into the bath.

Probably either a closed comedone or a milia? For a closed comedone, a salicylic acid spot treatment applied consistently. For milia, topical tretinoin or a gentle glycolic acid. Best to have GP/derma appointment first.

Thank you!
Am currently on the salycilic patches (thank you Amazon!!)

Careful it isn't a cyst. I have one on my neck and was advised I needed it surgically removed (it is in a very awkward place and my local hospital won't touch it, so they referred me to our big teaching hospital, but after discussion, I decided to leave it). It got infected and I ended up in A& E with it.

For spots that haven’t yet come to a head, I use a dab of face oil on it as often as I can and it sort of seems to encourage it to come to the surface. Then a hot flannel held over the top of it

Toothpaste will sort it

Are there actually real people out there who don’t squeeze their whiteheads??! Surely life is too short 🤣🤣😆

You can make a paste with a soluble aspirin and stick it on when you go to bed

Apparently also people who would see a GP for a whitehead😳

Squeezing no!

This is exactly what I would do!

Hottest water you can handle on a cotton pad - hold it firmly on top until it pops. Press for a bit longer then aftershave/toothpaste/sudocream
