Pimples on lips are irritating and uncomfortable and extra precautions should be taken in order to get rid of them.
They may be caused by hormonal changes in the body, oily skin, a poor diet, stress, or you may simply be prone to a pimple on your lip line.
To get rid of lip pimples, you need to gather certain supplies for pimple treatment.
You will need warm water, a medicated soap or a soap suitable for oily skin, a clean washcloth, cotton balls, astringent, cotton swabs and a bandage.
The first step is to soak the washcloth in hot water. While it is soaking, tie long hair away from the face so that it won’t get in the way.
Splash warm water onto your face, then lather the soap in your hands and apply it to your face, using your fingertips and working in gentle, circular movements. Wash the rest of your face before washing the lips, to stop transferring oil and bacteria to the spot. Wash the area with the lip pimple last using small, light motions. Repeat this process three times every day for several days.
Take the hot washcloth and let it cool just enough so that it is tolerable on your skin. Position it directly on top of the lip pimple and apply gentle pressure for around 5 minutes. Using it as a hot compress reduces swelling and minimizes irritation to the skin.
