    Do you need a super-fast fix for clearing your breakouts? Sorry to break it to you, but squeezing your pimples is definitely NOT the answer!
     

    Try to keep your fingers far away from your pimples as touching them will not only spread the infection, but it can even lead to more pimples popping up. The best solution? Targeted pimple-clearing products that’ll nix pimples within hours.
     

    The only thing you need to do is squeeze is the product and pop it directly onto the pimple using the nozzle, and then use a cotton tip to gently smooth it over and around the blemish. Use it after cleansing and toning but before your serum and moisturiser and you’re good to go.
     

    5 OF THE BEST PIMPLE CLEARING PRODUCTS
     

    #1: Clearasil Daily Clear Pimple Treatment Cream Vanishing

    Dab this colourless pimple treatment on before you hit the hay to let it open up the pimple, absorb excess oils and bacteria, and then dry out the spot by the time you wake.
     

    #2: Dermalogica Clear Start Breakout Clearing Emergency Spot Fix

    Enriched with seven calming botanicals including camellia, lavender and tea tree, this cream formula soothes redness and stops the pimple getting worse by eliminating bacteria deep within the pore.
     

    #3: Danné Montague-King ACU-THERM

    Although this blemish-fighting gel isn’t packaged in a handy tube, it can still be applied hygienically by simply dipping a cotton tip into the formula and smoothing it onto the pimple. It works by softening sebum plugs to rid pimple of backed-up fluid and bacteria in no time.

    #4: Natio Acne Clear Spot Natio Antibacterial Spot Treatment

    The natural antibacterial extracts in this cream work to wipe out pimple-causing germs, while soothing aloe and green tea calm and relieve redness.
     

    #5: Clean & Clear Advantage Fast Acting Clearing Spot Gel

    As soon as you feel a pimple coming on dab this clear gel over the area morning and night and let the salicylic acid and active ingredients stop the spot in its tracks.

    What pimple clearing products do you use? Have you tried any of these?

    I suffered from acne during my teenage years, for me, it was really difficult to get rid of it, it affected my self-esteem. I reduced my acne with a balanced diet and antibiotics. For the scars I recommend dermelastic.

    I really recommend clearasil!

    Recently I had a small pop up above my eyebrows, while doing my normal skin care routine I was applying Thursday Plantation Brightening oil (I was using it for the first time in my routine) but as soon as I applied it, it did sting that small zit for a while (which I was not expecting) but surprisingly within 2 hours that small zit was cleared. I know Thursday Plantation Brightening oil is not a spot treatment, neither was I expecting it to work for the zit but it definitely works on those small new pop-ups.

    Haven't tried Natio yet (but it's on my list)!

    Heidi366 11 Jul 2016 2:36 PM

    I think I used clearasil products quite some time ago and then moved onto a pharmacy brand, with more intense ingredients to help with the problem I had at the time.

    darasparkle 4 Jul 2016 9:40 PM

    Ooh I really want to try one of these! Now, the hard part is which one - I think the Kora products I've been using have caused me to break out :(

    Thankfully I no longer need anything like this but it is just fabulous how many good products are available to treat acne these days.

    I have tried the Dermalogica one. Its aaaamazing. Makes me wanna kiss my own face omg I know I'm weird...

    But yanno, when something works so well its like 'yaaas, was totally worth half of my paycheck from McDonald's' (3 yrs ago)

    Love this.

    Is this article really old? Some of the products do not have a valid link. Wanted to check out the review on the dermalogica product but page not found.

    never used products for acne, as I thought they will go away on their own

    preciousia 4 May 2016 1:35 AM

    want to try Natio Acne Clear Spot Natio Antibacterial Spot Treatment

    jaydelouise 30 Apr 2016 1:50 PM

    good read, Unfortunately I cant use most of those products due to very sensitive skin :(

    Yohanna 30 Jun 2016 2:44 PM

    oh, so true...but who knows, maybe now they make more gentle stuff. I know ages ago my skin burned from one wash designed for acne prone skin

    Great article!

    Great article!

    I rely on Vicks Vapo Rub, but it only works for me if I get it on early enough. I'm at a loss as to what I should use when it's Mt Vesuvius on my face...

    Caitlin 972 12 May 2016 9:58 PM

    If found the clearasil (number 1 in this article) really works, and you can just get it at woolies

    Yohanna 30 Jun 2016 2:45 PM

    Forgot about that! Just got in Priceline goody bag clearasil wash and i think wipes. may give it a go when period comes

    I have several fast pimple clearing products I use when I get a spot on my chin.

    darceyb 13 Apr 2015 5:33 AM

    None of these have ever worked for me..

    Rikki-Lee 10 Apr 2015 5:48 PM

    Hand sanitizer works too, I have used it a few times as an emergency treatment when I've been at work. The spots have been visibly smaller by the end of the day :)

    Clover1986 4 Jan 2015 12:55 PM

    I tried bezac before and it took ages to see any effect. I changed to clean and clear recently and noticed how quick it cleared the pimples. However, it made my skin really dry after
