Raw and organic tea tree oil consists of potent antibacterial, antimicrobial, and anti-fungal properties. It works on your blemishes by killing the acne-causing bacteria and inhibiting further growth and spread of the blemishes. This is because of the presence of the compound called terpene that is able to penetrate blemish-prone skin and improve its antimicrobial action. Not only can tea tree oil function as a good spot treatment to dry out pimples overnight, it can also stop new ones from popping up. Suitable for dry acne, we would not recommend oily, acne-prone skin to be treated with tea tree oil.

One of the best sources of skin-loving antioxidants, the catechins and flavonoids present in green tea have been known to have a soothing, calming and brightening effect on the skin. It does so by fighting free radical damage on the skin and thus negating its harmful effects. These properties give green tea the ability to alleviate skin conditions like mild to moderate breakouts.

When it comes to OTC (over-the-counter) treatments that you can safely use at home, the best ingredients to look for are low strength AHAs like salicylic acid and glycolic acid, and acne-causing bacteria-killers like benzoyl peroxide and sulfur. These remedies are often formulated as spot treatment creams and gels and not only work to eliminate blemishes quickly, but also reduce post-acne scarring. Some of these products can also offer mild exfoliation and inhibit clogging of pores to keep further breakouts at bay.

**A. **While the fluoride content in toothpaste will help dry out pimples and fade them overnight, it is not recommended as a safe treatment. Toothpaste can cause issues like PIH (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation) on your skin and leave scars behind that are difficult to deal with later on.
**A. **Yet another at-home blemish-control solution, crushed aspirin is also commonly used to treat pimples quickly. The acetylsalicylic acid content in them is known to dry out breakouts, but can also be quite irritating to the skin.
