have you ever…

I am getting a giant, painful zit near my mouth. (Now if I see any of my friends face to face they won’t be able to look me in the eye, as they’ll be trying to avoid looking at my zit.) It hasn’t come to the surface yet… it hurts much worse than it looks.

It’s just huge. I haven’t had a lot of complexion issues lately… I credited the Ponds Cold Cream but maybe it was the birth control pills I am no longer taking.

So a friend in my high school rural stomping grounds told me once to try toothpaste on pimples. It sounded stupid but you know me. Eventually I had to try it. I have found that toothpaste does draw a lot of the ick out of a pimple, reducing its size and ugliness.

I’m sorry I shared that. But who doesn’t suffer from the occasional zit? Come on.
