How do you cover up a pimple?

Sometimes i get random pimples and i don%26#039;t know how to cover them up??? I only have foundation at home and it doesn%26#039;t cover them up. Should i go out and buy concealer (if so, whats some good stuff) and how do i actually put it on? i%26#039;ve heard that toothpaste is good for pimples..is it??|||tip:the eye drops to make your eyes less red works on pimples! i promis! so do that first...





use liquid foundation.


THEN use concealer.(any works good but make sure its exactly your skin tone and matches foundation cuz if it doesnt itll stand out)


then(sounds really weird) but use a really small amount of light green eyeshadow(it cancels out the red) and just dab it on.





then apply powder.


:)|||I would put on a little bit of green eyeshadow and then add some water-based concealer. Oil based tends to irritate breakouts. Neutrogena foundations and concealers are good because they contain enzymes in them to reduce breakouts, and they are also water based. Neutrogena is reasonably priced too, so you can get some concealer for under $10 and you can also get it just about anywhere. If you do put on some concealer, you can add your foundation to keep the concealer on longer and look fresher.


I%26#039;ve never heard of the toothpaste thing, but I do have some other tricks. Try making a strawberry scrub.(just mask a bunch of strawberries in a bowl.) They vitamins from the strawberries work to get rid of the bacteria on your face. Also, try putting ice on your pimples a few times a day, it reduces the swelling and redness. All the rest I know is to drink plenty of water! The more you drink, the clearer your skin gets. Also, keep your face as clean as possible and DONT TOUCH!





Try to heal the pinple rather than to cover it up, because if you get some cover-up that isnt just right, it can make the outbreak even worse!





Good Luck! ; )|||yea! Toothpaste can help reduce redness of your pimple. Just put it on and in about 3 min. wash the spot off. ( if you don%26#039;t, it may look like your skin is dry or flaky.) I recommend to get rid of the pimple instead of covering them up. Try a regular face wash for acne ( Nozema seems to have different kinds of products that you need.) Also, if you want to do a home remedy, then you can mix lemon juice and water together, then apply it to your breakouts with a cotton ball with it on it and they will go away if you do this often. It is pretty refreshing!! If you put the lemon juice and water in a big glass, you can also add sugar and ice and have a wonderful glass of lemonade!!!! haha!|||If you will buy a good cream foundation then it is thick enough you can use it with a brush as concealer and it will match perfectly. I use Merle Norman Total Finish compact foundation. It costs around 20.00 but it will last me around nine months a little goes a long way. I also use Merle Norman Shine Control Hydrator as a moisturizer it is a moisturizer that has anti acne products in it.|||mac has an AMAZING coverup.


it come in a little tin/cup thing and you apply it with your fingers. (hard to explain, its not a powder or a liquid, but its soo great)


so when i have an outbreak of acne i usually first put the mac coverup on it, then some liquid foundation (on it and on the rest of my face to even out my skin tone) and then some powder bronzer (just to smooth out my skin). and tada you cant see the acne:]|||the BEST concealer for blemishes is sold at sephora and costs almost 20 dollars. it is benefit boing.





but if you are not willing on spending that money, go to cvs or something, and buy a mineral foundation. maybelline and physicians formula have a few. they cover up better than regular foundation.





Good luck beautiful. Acne goes away over time.|||Octutain acne (Clavaris is the medical name) go to the dermatologist they will put you on it most likely and ALL of your acne will be gone. I had it all over my face back chest and it was horrible! But now there isnt a pimple on my entire body! God makes miracles happen and this is deffinately one of them haha. and if you dont want that wash your face at night with a warm water, apply alcohol ( rubbing ) then if you want put some tooth paste on it as well. Good luck (;|||Use concealer. My absolute favorite is Almay stuff, but it costs $9 or $10. On the upside, I used one tiny tube of it for seven months, and still have some left. You can get other stuff cheaper, but I haven%26#039;t tried much else. Make sure it matches your skin tone, and it%26#039;s better to go lighter than darker if you can%26#039;t find your color. Just apply a little directly on the blemish, and lightly smear it in.|||yeah i would say that using cover up and foundation will only make the pimple worse andyou should stay away from that kindof stuff because it clogs the pour and only makes it worse and yeah i have heard that you can use toothpaste fro pimple and also that glue on black heads is good too|||use tooth paste over night dude cover up doesnt work it just makes it worse just wash ur face before u go to bed and then put some tooth paste on the pimple go to sleep take it off when u wake up with warm water, warm water is really important it opens up the pores. it should be gone tht is wht i do|||Don%26#039;t cover it up, put toothpaste (it does work. xD) on it before you go to bed, or just pop it and then clean it with rubbing alcohol then put on your daily routine.|||you can get cover up stick...i also have zits...i just put it on and like rub it in til you cant see the red and it kinda blends w/ my skin...


its never gunna be perfect...you cant help that :/|||yes get some concealer and put the foundation on once then concealer then foundation again and it should work! DONT PUT TOOTHPASTE ON A PIMPLE THATS GROSS!!! AND REALLY ODD!!!|||if you go to your local drug store (i.e Walgreens) you will find this special oinment in the medicine isle which will probally help you. Hope it works!|||Easy put lots of blush.You should cover it up.
