If you have a huge zit, chances are you want to conceal it. You may have an event in a few hours and not necessarily know if a spot treatment is going to get rid of it. Chances are, it might go down, but it won’t completely go away. And of course, if you’ve popped it or something else, that will cause various other problems. So remember a few things.
First of all, use an anti inflammatory like Neosporin or make sure your spot treatment has natural anti inflammatories such as white willow bark before using them. This will help you to reduce the inflammation and therefore make it easier to cover up among other things.
Of course powerful acne fighters like tea tree oil are also necessary. But the redness may not go down quite as well as you think. So we would also suggest finding a good concealer. You can find spot concealers. They should not be heavy or clog the pores, which is a really big thing. But there are also some with salicylic acid for example to fight acne in other ways. All of these can help you to achieve better results and otherwise better cover up your zits rather than making them worse or otherwise.
