How to Get Rid of Acne in 1 Day

from wikiHow - The How to Manual That You Can Edit

Ever wondered how to get rid of acne for a day? This will show you how!
With this method you'll get rid of acne in 1 day
(if your acne is really bad it may take longer).
This method is best used on a weekend or school holiday as you'll have lots of time to get ready.

Steps

1. Start by washing your face with a warm face-cloth. Run the tap until the water is hot, then wring the face-cloth out and place it on your face till it starts to cool. Be careful not to burn yourself.
   
2. Next, do the same again but with a cold face-cloth.
   
3. Wash your face with an exfoliating face scrub.
   
4. Get 2 ice cubes and a piece of fabric. Put one ice cube in a plastic container (for later use), and wrap the other ice cube up in the fabric leaving only one side uncovered.
   
5. Rub the ice cube over the acne on your face until the area goes numb. When your face goes numb, stop; leave your face alone until it's warm again.
   
6. Carry on doing this until you have used up both ice cubes.
   
7. Wash your face with a warm cloth.
   
8. Look in the mirror and smile at your acne-free face.
   
9. If you have bad acne it may take more than 2 ice cubes.
   
10. This may not work
