Help! It's 10 days before my wedding and....

[crazypretty]

..of course I had to break out. Not terrible, but I definately want to get rid of as much as I can! We do not have any dermatoligists near here that do the shots (they are too much $ anyway) but I was wondering if anyone knows of good on the spot treatments, or any suggestions to help with the reddness. I don't care if it means I have to walk around with no mu on until the wedding, if it will help I will definately try it. I am kind of scared to try anything new, because I definately don't want a bad reaction. Any ideas??

the body shop tea tree oil is amazing [the one in the bottle not the wand] put it on about twice a day and DONT TOUCH YOUR SKIN! the redness will go away and the tea tree will dry out the blemishes so they will go away. That should work within about a week as long as you look after your skin within those days drink tonnes of water, eat healthily etc.

I'm getting married in 10 days too!!!
I have a big fat pimple on my chin that I'm not too excited about either. I've been using Vichy NormaDerm Active Anti-Imperfection Concentrate the past two nights, and it's really gone down in size.
Good luck with your wedding, I hope you have a wonderful day!

Try Clean & Clear Invisible Blemish Treatment ... I put it on pimples before going to bed and in the morning they're gone!!

Thanks for the responses =) I did go out and get the Clean and Clear, and that is starting to take away the redness so thanks Raynelle, also congrats on your wedding Sassifrass!

I agree with Hilly. I would go to the dermatologist. This would insure that you get the best treatment for the condition.

This migh be a little late but I found that if I put a teaspoon in the fridge for a couple of hours and then pressed it on my particularly red spots, it would help the down the redness and any swelling. Also the cold teaspoon trick is a great home remedy for tired and puffy eyes too.
