Anyway enough of me telling you what I think of the routine, follow the steps below and soon hopefully it will be you telling everyone how good you think the "pimple zapper routine" is, or maybe even how bad it was, who knows?...

Pimple Zapping Overnight Routine 

Items Needed:

- Acne Cleanser

- Ice Pack

- Benzoyl Peroxide Gel

- 1 Lemon

- Cotton Ball (Optional)

- SPF 15 Moisturizer

- Blemish Spot Concealer (Optional)

Step 1 

Splash

Neutrogena Wave

Using an acne facial cleanser massage over the effected areas lightly for no more than 15 seconds. I use the neutrogena wave power cleanser, that is what I found works best for me. As long as the cleanser you use removes impurities, oil and dead skin cells it will work just as well. After washing pat dry with a clean towel, never rub dry as this can aggravate acne leading to more breakouts.

Step2

Ice Pack

Does ice help acne? A question I have seen asked many times recently, and the answer is very simple...yes, ice can help acne which is why it's the next step in getting rid of a pimple overnight. Using an ice pack hold on the pimple for 10-15 minutes. The extremely cold temperature of the ice will reduce inflammation and numb the pain, if any, temporarily. 

Step 3

Benzoyl Peroxide

Bp On Pimple - From Paul Burdick

Now that the pores are free from impurities, excess oil, dead skin cells and inflammation reduced it is time to apply what I like to call the pimple killer, benzoyl peroxide gel. Add a generous amount of benzoyl peroxide over the effected pimple - the amount shown in the image above is ideal. Many people recommend against using large amounts of benzoyl peroxide as it has a drying effect on the skin, which is true,  but because this is a one off overnight pimple zapper treatment this will be perfectly fine.

 Step 4

zzzzzzz

brrrrrrrrr

Leave on the benzoyl peroxide gel overnight for it to work it's magic. In the morning upon waking wash off the gel using lukewarm, never hot, water. Hot water should always be avoided, it can burn and damage the outer layer of the skin. 

Step 5

Natures Skin Whitener

The lemon is natures skin whitener, rubbing the juice over the effected area will help lighten any marks left after the zit has gone. To rub over the skin squeeze some lemon juice into a bowl, then using a cotton ball dip into the juice, rub over the entire facial area. If you have sensitive skin dilute the lemon, to dilute for every 1 part lemon juice add 1 part water. Leave on, washing off only at night.

Step 6

Olay Complete Moisturizer

Very important step, DO NOT SKIP! Moisturizing the skin after using this pimple eliminating routine is essential because many of the above treatments have drying effects on the skin. Using a moisturizer with SPF 15 or higher is also essential as  the lemon+benzoyl peroxide can make the skin extra sensitive to getting damaged from the sun. I use olay complete moisturizer, it contains an SPF 15, is non- comedogenic (won't clog pores) and is 100% fragrance and color free, but again any moisturizer that works for you with an SPF of at least 15 will work just as good.

 Step 7 (optional)

 Spot Concealer

If you have any red marks left after following the above routine, applying a small amount of concealer for acne prone skin will cover that, vanishing your pimple completely. However this step is optional and hopefully will not be needed. 

Completed!

These are the 7 steps I always follow when I get a pimple. I have been using it now for a few years. It has been updated a few times since the first time I used it to include extra steps that make it more effective, and when I find a product that works better than the one I'm currently using, however, the architecture always stays the same.

The amount of times this routine has saved my ass I really could not tell you. I am the guy who always seems to break out just before important events such as proms and other formal events.


I actually missed my high school prom because of acne, which is the reason this routine now exists. After not going to prom because of my problem skin I did a lot of research and testing, then after months of trying different products and routines finally found one that worked, and not only worked but also extremely fast.
