If you want to get right of a pimple, there is one major way to do it.  You can use a 12 hour spot treatment.  They sometimes come with other acne treatments and sometimes sell on their own.  But you have to look for a combination of powerful ingredients such as anti inflammatories, antibacterials, and other high powered ingredients, preferably not known to have side effects.  Tea tree oil is perfect for this purpose.  There are plenty of other ideas people have about what you should use and otherwise what you should do.  Some people think for example that you should actually use toothpaste or windex, those are the most common ideas about things in general.    However, the fact is that when you are trying to get rid of a zit overnight, you want your skin to be clear, even, etc.  These will leave a big red mark that happens to be flat instead of rising up.  That’s still a zit and therefore still presents a serious problem.  It doesn’t address real zits.   Therefore if the idea is to quickly and efficiently get rid of a zit or otherwise, the best way is to go with proven and professional ways rather than your own at home ideas.
