Hey, no lecture from me. I think almost everyone has done it before. If you have tea tree or grape seed oil you can use that on the area every 5hours and it should clear up. Or you can gently exfoliate the area with warm water and a mild exfoliant and apply a thick layer of aqueous cream.

I agree with isy.

As long as they are healed (and not still scabs), use warm water on a wash cloth and scrub the dry skin away (not too hard, or the skin will get irritated and break out in zits again!).

Drinking lots of water, getting enough sleep, and moisturizing your skin will help the healing process finish more quickly, too.

Acne products with benzoyl peroxide or sulphur also speed up the skin's healing and shedding process. Using those on your zits or post-zit marks will dry them out quickly, and you'll be able to scrub away the dead skin more easily (I know, eww. lol).

Hope this helps!
