    Default I have a zit and have to work!

    Allright ladies-

    Do any of you have any advice for what to do when a giant zit attacks your face and you have to go to work that night?

    I feel like a re-tard walking up to guys when I have a zit, and even though I know they prolly can't see it bc of the lights it freaks out.

    Put Cortaid hydrocortisone cream on the zit. Also put on dark lipstick and eye makeup to distract the eye from the pimple.

    Go to the doctor/dermatologist and get a shot of cortisone injected directly into the zit. It actually does NOT hurt and the results are immediate. Its not too expensive and takes a minute, as long as they can fit you into the schedule. My doctor friend would always do it for me when I had a nasty zit. Too bad she moved away, dammit! Its good to have a physician in your pocket, hehe!

    ^ Kat, doesn't the cortisone leave a depression where the zit was afterwards? That's what I was told, which is why I haven't tried it.

    Turn the zit into a mole. Your regs and the other dancers won't laugh as long as your up-front about it, and the random custys won't be able to tell. That's assuming that the zit is in an attractive spot...usually anywhere not too close to the nose is fine.

    Thanks guys!! I will try that hydrocortisone cream and if this zit doesn't go away, I'm calling a dermatologist!! My skin usually doesn't break out at all, but like three times a year I am plagued by a massive dime sized zit that lands on my cheek!! WHY??? WHYY???

    NEOSPORIN which is an OTC salve for cuts and burns works real fast drying out a zit. Just apply a little over the zit.

    I've used Visene Eye Drops before and it takes some of the swelling and redness away.

    tea tree oil it, then put on some of that liquid bandage and do your regular makeup over it. it makes it invisible, and helps shrink it. just make sure to wash it all off well and tea tree oil again when you get home.
