I know we're not supposed to pop those darn zits when they come up, but I'm one of those people who keeps obsessing over it until I cave in and pop it. It's nasty, yes. Do I WAIT until it's "ready"? Nope. I just keep touching it, staring at it in the mirror, and thinking about it until I just...can't...take it. So if you're like me, and don't have the patience nor the self control, take my advice: use neosporin. I know this has been mentioned somewhere (if not a lot) on this forum, but neosporin has been my miracle post-zit popping treatment for the past year or so. It helps them heal really fast without leaving scars/red marks. Try it!

-Don't worry, I'm not advertising for them or anything. It's just one of those cheap, but works, kind of product. Plus, I know we've all been there in terms of just caving in to the pressure and pop those things!

2 Questions Anyone

1: Do you have to put bandaid after Neosporin? or can u leave the Neosporin on the wound
2: Can you put BP over the neosporin or do u have to put the Sporin over the BP?

I'm not sure about this but doesn't Neosporin clog pores???

Neosporin ointment does. Neosporin cream does not. Polysporin is better.

No BP needed. Just use the polysporin; the petrolatum will help with healing and possibly reduce the development of PIH.

The following two links are to websites that list comedogenic ingredients. You can research the ingredients in your product(s) and determine if any might be problematic. The second link is to a PDF so if your computer is old or cranky, your computer might freeze. http://www.zerozits.com/Articles/acnedetect.htm#inglist
