If Your Skin Is Freaking Out Right Now, You're Not Alone

But for pimples that you can already see, please don’t pick them (a golden rule even I, your trusty grooming editor, has broken lately). Instead, use a pimple patch, says Dr. Rabach. “There is a lot of science behind colloidal patches—they pull all the bad gooey stuff out of your skin.” Patches like Hero Cosmetics Mighty Patch or ZitSticka Killa Pimple Patch stick over your pimple and can help get rid of them quicker, plus they don’t allow you to pop or pick.
