When you're stressed, you might be more tempted than ever to pick at your face or pop a pimple on your own. But you know what we're going to say here, right? Don't. Doing so can actually spread the infection in your skin and can potentially leave a scar. Instead, slap on a pimple patch to help keep your hands off. Bonus: Certain patches will also help your acne heal faster.
