Comments on: Banish That Pimple with a Band Aid? http://beautyfool.com/banish-that-pimple-with-a-band-aid/ Wed, 08 Feb 2012 18:03:37 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Claire http://beautyfool.com/banish-that-pimple-with-a-band-aid/#comment-7647 Claire Sun, 30 Oct 2011 10:20:59 +0000 http://www.beautyfool.net/?p=10445#comment-7647 This does work. It works better if you put a treatment underneath the bandaid with a Q-tip and then apply the bandaid (I don't bother cutting it up). The reason why it works is because it prevents bacteria from getting into the pimple and making it worse. There are so many microorganisms on your pillow and sheets and floating in the air (especially if you have pets) and it can settle on the pimple and make them worse. The bandaid protects this from happening. What I do is apply a tad of tea tree oil with a Q-tip (pure tea tree oil dries up a pimple VERY quickly) and then apply the bandaid overnight. In the morning, big pimples have reduced and small pimples are completely gone. This does work.

It looks like it works, but I only did it one day on a huge cyst and you know how evil those things are. But when I take the bandaid off, it seems all the vinegar and pimple stuff is stuck to the bandaid pad. Interesting, no?

I haven't tried using the adhesive part but I used a band-aid the normal way to cover my deep rooted blemish while I slept last night and this morning it had greatly reduced in size and doesn't hurt when I press on it like it did yesterday. My husband gets nasty bug bites that swell up with venom (lots of bugs in PR) and he simply covers them with a band-aid and it sucks out all of the nastiness inside overnight. Never thought to try this with zits until he made the suggestion and so far I can vouch for this method. All I know is that the band-aid pad is sterile and it somehow seems to draw out junk. Now we need to invent and market band-aids specifically for zits! we'll be millionaires! I can also vouch for the band aid method, sort of.

I have done this for years and just used this method last week. It brings the infection to the surface. Sometimes if I am developing a larger pimple, I will leave the adhesive on for a few days and repeat the procedure until all the infection is gone. Always make sure to apply antiseptic (my favorites are: rubbing alcohol, witch hazel or hydrogen peroxide) over the infected area!!! Putting the adhesive part of a band aid over a pimple works!
