[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 430014, member: 1233"] BurnGel Plus - they sell it at Walmart where they have the calamine lotion. It is sold for burns but has lidocaine and tea tree oil in it. Tea tree oil alone is awesome and we use it for zits a LOT. but the BurnGel Plus is even better. The lidocaine makes it not hurt and the other stuff really helps with infection and healing. I have been using it on Jess for a year now and it is incredible. Make sure that she uses a clean washcloth each time she washes her face. It will help with this zit and with acne in general. Plus she MUST use a moisturizer. I have oily skin and know the temptation to not, but it is crucial. When you don't moisturize your face you get little cracks in the skin - even if your skin is very oily. This lets bacteria in and causes more breakouts. Using a washcloth and letting it dry and using it again allows bacteria to grow on the cloth and be applies to your skin when you use it again. It is a hassle to have so many washcloths dirty, but it makes a real difference. You can also put a bit of hydrocortisone on the pimple. It will help with swelling and redness. Not as much as BurnGel, but it can help. [/QUOTE]
