Fast Response Pimple Cream?

[OnaFyre]

Has anyone ever used Fast Response eye cream as a zit cream? I have been experimenting a bit with this. It seems to shrink and lessen redness if I put it on them overnight. And I think the silicone and "reflective particles" seem to make blemishes less noticeable under makeup. My next idea is to mix the fast response with some tea tree oil- my previous zit treatment. They seem to make a difference if I apply them in a sort of layered treatment, but I'm curious to see what would happen if I actually mixed them. Any thoughts?

It would make sense that it works as a blemish cream. Fast Response has ingredients to reduce puffiness, as well as light reflecting particles to diffuse (make the blemish less obvious). There are also ingredients in there to soothe. So yeah, it would work in that sense. The tea tree would provide the medication to lessen the blemish. I would imagine your potion would work well as a less aggressive treatment for a not so bad blemish. Well done, you mad scientist you!

That's so funny, I used my Fast Response on a pimple yesterday morning. It was right in the middle of my forehead and red and inflamed so I didn't know what to do with it (putting on the usual salcylic acid treatment would have just made it redder and more irriated) so I reached for the Fast Response. I figured the caffeine and whatnot that make it good for reducing undereye puffiness would reduce redness and inflamation elsewhere too. And it worked! The pimple is GONE today.

I'm a little wary about using this regularily, though, because my skin is sensitive and I don't want to actually CAUSE breakouts with the stuff-- but I'll definitely use it again on this type of pimple.

I use it for my breakouts and whenever I have a cold... u know when u've blown ur nose a million and one times and its all dry. I put it on every morning and night that Im sick and I dont get that crusty dryness.

I'm tempted to give it a go!

i haven't, but the MAC regional trainer always tells us at the events that it takes the red out of pimples just like what mac_whore said!

Okay, I think it might be best to stick with the one and then the other method. The mix of tea tree oil and fast responce was a little funky and needs something more air tight than just a smaple jar to keep it in. So, try the oil first and then the cream on pimples.
