Get Rid Of Pimples On The Nose

1. Lemon Peel

You Will Need

• The peel of a lemon

What You Have To Do

1. Squeeze the lemon peel gently so that the juice oozes out of it.
2. Gently rub the juice on the pimples for 5 minutes.
3. Leave it on for about 15 minutes.
4. Rinse with regular water.

How Often

Twice a day

Why This Works

Lemon peel extract has antimicrobial properties and reduces the proliferation of pseudomonas and micrococcus bacteria that grow in the presence of sebum and may contribute to acne formation.

2. Rub Ice

You Will Need

• A few ice cubes
• A washcloth

What You Have To Do

Wrap a few ice cubes in a clean washcloth and gently press it against the pimple for about 20 minutes.

How Often

Repeat after a few hours.

Why This Works

Traditionally, ice is used to reduce pain and decrease swelling (by constricting the blood vessels) and inflammation. This may provide temporary relief and reduce the appearance of pimples and redness.

3. Tea Tree Oil

You Will Need

• 1-2 drops of tea tree oil
• 1 tablespoon of carrier oil

What You Have To Do

1. Mix the two oils and apply the blend to the pimple.
2. Leave it on for at least 10 minutes.
3. Rinse with water.

How Often

Twice a day

Why This Works

A mild yet effective agent, tea tree oil clears moderate acne and is effective against P. acnes and S. aureus bacteria. It reduces redness and inflammation.

4. Witch Hazel

You Will Need

• 1 teaspoon of witch hazel
• A cotton pad

What You Have To Do

1. Apply witch hazel to the pimple with a cotton pad and let it dry.
2. Leave it on for 15 minutes and wash off.

Once a day

Why This Works

Witch hazel contains tannins and is commonly used to reduce acne. It soothes redness and reduces swelling and inflammation.

5. Toothpaste

You Will Need

What You Have To Do

1. Apply the toothpaste on the pimple and leave it on for 30 minutes.

• Cotton swab

What You Have To Do
