We look at models walking down runways in fashion shows, in magazine photo shoots and paparazzi pictures showing off latest fashion trends of 2019 looking glamorous, put together with clear and glowing skin, which fools everyone into thinking that these models don’t suffer from common skin concerns that affect us, ordinary people. However, behind the scenes, models lead stressful lives, and contrary to our belief, they suffer from skin issues like acne and irritation.

So how do they get rid of pimples as soon as they pop up? We have collected some of the top supermodel tips for calming down a pimple overnight, read on to learn more:

Vinegar

Fresh-faced super model Kaia Gerber uses toothpaste or ice for drying out pimples overnight. Like us, she loves using home remedies to treat problematic skin.

Steer away from gel, menthol, and whitening kinds of toothpaste if you intend to use it as an overnight spot treatment for your pimple because they can do more harm than good.

Use only a tiny amount that is enough to cover the pimple, leave it on overnight or until the toothpaste dries. Toothpaste is an effective overnight spot treatment for pimples because of the combination of ingredients commonly found in toothpaste, which includes baking soda and other antibacterial agents that kill the bacteria and dry out the pimple.

Ice Cubes

A-list actor and celebrity Julianne Hough uses ice cubes or ice water to reduce inflammation as soon as she notices a pimple developing. She suggests massaging the inflamed area with the ice cube for a few minutes.

Ice cube is also effective for treating the redness, which makes the pimple less noticeable. Unfortunately, applying ice cubes does not relieve the underlying cause of the breakout, which is the bacteria.

Baking Soda

Supermodel Kendall Jenner relies on a baking powder based home remedy as an overnight spot treatment to quickly zap away pesky pimples. She mixes one teaspoon of baking soda with half a teaspoon of lemons juice and a teaspoon of honey and applies it on the breakout to dry it out quickly.

The baking soda as a topical treatment for acne works by absorbing oils, whereas the lemon juice serves as an exfoliant and the honey is a great anti-inflammatory and antibacterial with moisturizing properties.

LED Masks

Model Leila Goldkuhl depends on LED masks with blue light technology to kill bacteria and quickly get rid of pimples. A 20-minute session of an LED mask can potentially kill the breakout-causing bacteria, and an improvement can be seen overnight.

LED masks have become a celebrity favorite because technology offers multiple benefits, including anti-aging and anti-acne effects.

Aspirin

Crushed up aspirin is another common and popular supermodel pimple reducing tip. Aspirin spot treatment works because it has salicylic acid, which is a clinically proven treatment for acne. The salicylic acid is an anti-inflammatory that is effective for reducing redness, acne scarring, and pimples.

Mix crushed up aspirin with enough warm water to make a thick paste, which you can apply as a spot treatment or a facemask. After rinsing, follow with a light hydrating face serum and non-comedogenic moisturizer.
