posted in Skin & Body Tips on 7/6/2014

If you stand before the mirror and there is red, hot and swollen pimples on your face that appear prominent, your mood could get spoiled in no time. Here are the few home remedies to get rid of pimples overnight.

Treatment one: Lemon juice
Cut a lemon slice and rub it gently on the pimples which irritate you, the citric acid in the lemon will kill the acne causing bacteria and also help tighten your skin. Since it is anti-inflammatory, the redness in the pimples will reduce effectively.

Treatment two: Washing face with salt water
Salt-water is very effective in removing oils from the face and mitigating pimples. If you wash off the oil every night before going to bed, the next morning the pimple will start losing its prominence or be completely gone overnight.

Treatment three: Toothpaste
Apply the toothpaste on the affected skin and keep it for 10 to 15 minutes or you can also leave it for overnight. Wash off with cold water to get an immediate effect. But remember not to use the toothpaste in gel form as this can dry the skin out.

Treatment four: Cinnamon and honey mask
It may become very effective on your skin or may not. But there is no harm in trying it. Just mix the two ingredients together and apply on your face to leave to the next morning. The pimples may disappear overnight and give a pimple-free fresh look.

Treatment five: Apple cider vinegar
Take a cotton ball and dip it in the apple cider vinegar. Apply it on the pimples and keep it on overnight. You may feel extremely happy with its effectiveness the next morning.

Treatment six: Olive oil and salt
Make a paste of salt and olive oil and use it on the affected area. Wash it off after some time. Before you go to bed, apply a cold pack or an ice pack on your face. This will help reduce the swelling in your face and redness in the pimples.

Many of these treatments can also treat acne scarring and other skin issues such as uneven skin tone and discolouration. Face masks and other remedies may also work to help improve the appearance and redness of pimples and spots and there are many recipes online if you are interested in this idea. If none of these remedies have worked for you please make sure you book an appointment with a dermatologist so you can organise a treatment that fits you.
