<p>You know you&#39;re not supposed to pop your zits, right?</p>
<p>But you do it anyways.</p>
<p>It&#39;s SO satisfying.</p>
<p>I loved writing this for iVillage, because I got the creator of Proactiv to give me clever tips on dealing with zits (Afrin? Who knew!) and I got to teach the internet my zit popping technique. Enjoy!</p>

<p>Here&#39;s some good advice: If you get a  pimple, it&#39;s best to leave it alone. Squeezing a pimple can worsen the  problem, forcing sebum and bacteria deeper into the skin -- leaving you  with a zit angrier and redder than your original one. And if you&#39;re  particularly vigorous at picking at your zits you risk damaging the  skin, which can potentially leave you with scars.  <br /> ...</p>
<p>The first step in deciding what to do about a zit is to evaluate it to see if it is truly ready to pop.</p>
