This stuff will dry out a pimple over night, it's especially good if you've been naughty and popped one, if you just place a dab of this on that pimple it'll suck all the bacteria and nasty juices out of it and you'll be left with a dried out pimple. When you use this don't shake it allow the product to settle and then stick a cotton swab in it and apply it to the pimple.
