Yesterday I squeezed a blackhead on my lip (yes - I know it's a stupid thing to do!) I didn't use my fingers, though - I used one of those blackhead remover little metal hoop things.
Anyway, this morning I have a red mark from where I squeezed it, and I'm a bit scared it might turn into a scar. Is there anything I can put on it to help heal it/make it go away?
Thank you!!|||It shouldn't scar, it's just pissed because of the trauma of removal. Ice will take down the swelling, or some preparation H ointment. It will go on its own but this will take the redness away. Just use a new tube of preparation H because otherwise, eww. Next time ice it right after you remove and you shouldn't get the mark. Good luck.|||it will go just hide it with conceler or sumthing for a while...|||Try bio oil, it's good stuff !|||Alicia, I could finally find a solution for this problem,read this blog before taking any action

Allergic reaction to Estee Lauder eye makeup remover! How can I get the swelling and itchiness to go down?
I used Estee Lauder eye makeup remover at a friend's house last night and I woke up with my eyes almost swollen shut. The skin around my eyes is very swollen, itchy, and red. How can I get this to go away?|||The same thing happened to me with some make up years ago. You need to keep your eyes and face clean, keep washing them with cold water and take some antihistamines - if it doesn't go down in a couple of days get to the docs.|||Try diphenhydramine.
Brand name Benadryl.
Works for allergic reactions.
PRESCRIBED FOR: Diphenhydramine is used for the relief of nasal and non-nasal symptoms of various allergic conditions such as seasonal allergic rhinitis. It is also used to alleviate cold symptoms and chronic urticaria (hives). Although antihistamines are the preferred class of drugs in allergic rhinitis, they only reduce symptoms by 40%-60%. Diphenhydramine also is used for allergic reactions involving the eyes (allergic conjunctivitis), to prevent or treat active motion sickness, and for mild cases of Parkinsonism, including drug-induced Parkinsonism. The last two uses (motion sickness and Parkinsonism) are based on the anticholinergic effects of diphenhydramine, and not its antihistamine effects. Diphenhydramine is also used for treating insomnia.

Getting red wine out of carpet?
I spilled some red wine on my carpet Sunday night. I have used oxi clean and 409 stain remover, also I have tried my carpet shampooer. The stain is getting better. But does anyone have any other wonderful ideas?|||This works best if you do it immediately. First, blot all excess with paper towel. Mix a few ounces of hydrogen peroxide with several drops (1 tsp) of liquid dish liquid in a spray bottles. Spray and blot until stain disappears. Works on white/light colored carpet, upholstery, clothing. Test on colored textiles and fabric in an inconspicuous area first.|||Try pouring some vodka on it and work it into the stain, then suck up the excess with you carpet shampooer. You can also try rubbing alcohol if you don't have any vodka. Neither one will leave a odor when dry.|||according to martha stewart..white wine takes red wine stains out. I have never tried it though|||Dawn dish soap|||Pour white wine over the stain. White wine will neutralize red wine and will make it easier to lift the color off of your carpet or clothing. Very gently blot the liquid up with a thick towel -do not to rub as this will force the stain into the carpet or clothing fibers. Then, either take your favorite carpet shampoo or clothing stain remover, and clean as you would it there was a bit of dirt on the carpet . Or, make a three parts baking soda to one part water mixture. Put this on the stain and let it sit until completely dry. Then, vacuum out completely. You can repeat this step|||GET a new carpet.
How do i get red wine out of white leggings?
Spilt red wine on my leggings, took them off and put them in cold water until i was able to put stain remover on and put them in the washing machine. They've been through the wash about four times now, and the stain looks like a grease mark, how do i get it out?|||Absolutely the best way I've found is something called Wine Away. I've been using it for years and it works amazingly. I don't have any affiliation, I just like the stuff. You can get it at most fine wine shops and I'm sure you could order it from online somewhere.
You just spray it on and in seconds the stain is gone. This works best when the stain is fresh, like right after you spill so its good to keep some around all the time. However, it does work with older stains but the success rate drops the longer the stain has been there. I have seen stains disappear that were there for days, but if it has been weeks or months then it may only fade a bit.|||Almost impossible to kill a red wine stain. You can try bleach. If that doesn't work, you may just have to dye it white.|||You could try dabbing some bleach, very carefully, on the remaining stain. Just don't dry them until you are satisifed you have removed the stain.|||I spilled red wine on white carpet and used Oxy Clean to remove it. I made it rather pasty. Applied it with a toothbrush and let it dry. Swept it up and you would never know the accident happened.|||Have you tried Clorox bleach that should get it out.|||I was once told that if you take lemon juice and salt and rub it into the fabric gently. My friend Wanda suggested water and vinegar. GOOD LUCK. Holl@yagurl.........BABE GURL!|||try a bleach gel pen it should work.|||For any fruit stain (wine is made from grapes) don't touch the stain. Leave it until you can boil water and pour it over the stain from the opposite side. Presto! No more stain.
As far as your leggings... they're done. Use them as a rag.|||soak them in soda water and epson salts.|||the juice of a fresh lemon and the hot sun
great for all stains..

How to get red nail varnish out of a white carpet?
My two year old sister decided it would be a good idea to go into my room and paint herself and (more importantly) my white carpet red with my nail varnish. I've tried nail varnish remover and vinegar both haven't really worked too well. Help?!|||Red coloring can be a really strong stain, and unfortunately, if the carpet was wool, the vinegar could have acted like a dye fixative and made the staining permanent. (Vinegar and other acids are how dyes are made permanent on fibers like wool and silk).
You need to find out what the carpet is made of to make sure you don't set the stain accidentally when trying to clean it. Renting a deep steam cleaner might help the nail varnish let go of the rug fibers.|||Often nail polish on carpet is just on the very tips of the fibers. If this is the case you can just snip the polish off with sharp scissors.
Just cut the very tips of the fibers. Work slowly. Don't cut a single millimeter more than you have to and pull up while cutting. This will help prevent divots in the carpet. Try your best to do just one or two fibers at a time...not a whole clump.
This will work unless you have worked the nail polish deeper into the carpet with the nail polish remover.
Also...cutting the nail polish works on shag or plush carpet, but not Berber or loopy carpet.
Good luck.
-|||You can also use hydrogen peroxide if your carpet is white since it has bleaching effect. Now, blot the stained area with your wet towel. After all the stains were removed, you may rinse the carpet using warm water. Dry the area thoroughly before allowing anybody to use it. You can also take carpet cleaning service from shirazantiquerugs (www.shirazantiquerugs.com). They care for our carpets meticulously and offer the same superior cleaning and restoration resources.

Once i use hair color remover (and my hair turns orangey red) can i dye it over with golden brown?
yes if youve stripped your hair which it sounds like you did
How do you get nail polish off without remover?
I have nasty bright red nail-polish on and i'm at my grandpa's and i have school tomorrow and i really don't want to wear it, it's from halloween... Help!! And I have no chance of getting any remover.|||try some rubbing alcohol.. i've had to use it before.. it takes more elbow grease but it does work.
or you can sand it away with a nail buffer.
or like everyone else said.. put another coat on top and wipe it all off.|||Look for something to cover it maybe a dark pink . Red is tohard to get off even with nail polish remover.
|||Peeling off is an option but thats harmful to your nails. I recommend that you paint your nails over with another nail polish, and then get a tissue and remove the paint from ur fingers (while the new coat is still wet). This usually removes the paint at the bottom as well as the top :)
Hope i helped|||take some nail polish you dont like and paint it on top of the nail polish. than put on like 2 more coats not letting it fully dry between coats.(let it get a little tacky but not hard) than let it dry about 10 mins and run it under hot water and it should peel off. cheaper nail polish works better.|||Sometimes if I paint over my nail polish with more nail polish and then wipe if off straight after it brings the other layer off. You could try that.|||Alcohol|||you can peel it off, but that's bad for nails..|||You paint another layer nailpolish on you nail, and then you just wipe it of right away.
10 points?|||you could file it off xx
