4. The method: Use mouthwash to shrink pimples.
The result: Just like with all the above mentioned products, the mouthwash formula is not appropriate for delicate face skin. The chemicals that make up this kind of product are too strong, plus manufacturers are usually generous with fragrances. Since most brands contain alcohol it can dry out your skin. Fortunately, there is a less harmful way to have clear skin all year round. Those who want to get rid of their acne should try the gel from an Advil pill. You can also try and crush an aspirin tablet. Both work as an anti-inflammatory measure to reduce the further growth of bacteria. Apply either of those on the pimple. Keep it on your zits for a few minutes. Then wash your face with lukewarm water.
