Never put ice and salt on your skin together! My friend did it (salt and ice challenge) and it left a really bad blister on her hand!

I had something similar on my face after I fell and a pharmacist told me keep it moisturized don't scrub it or use anything abrasive and if anything use bacitracin ointment and it worked well for me and the bacitracin allowed me to cover it up with makeup and nut get it infected just make sure when ever you touch it what ever you touch with needs to be clean

Don't EVER Put ice and salt on your skin!!! It burns your skin! Try leaving aquaphore or Vaseline it will help heal those burns and help make sure you don't scar. Hope It helps!

ice and salt will burn. wherever you heard that from is very wrong. I could see using just ice but not ice with salt.

Yes, you can get very bad burns from ice and salt! The above mentioned "salt and ice challenge" has been known to cause second degree burns in extreme cases. Who told you to do that? Like others said, try Vaseline and if it causes you pain try to ice it a little bit. Try to keep makeup off of it as much as possible. Who told you to put ice and salt on your pimples?

I would use burn cream because I don't have sensitive skin but if you don't use Vaseline

& it doesn't hurt at all. It just like a mark & there's no bumps on it. If you feel my face , it's soft.

Ok do I tried the toothpaste thing to dry a pimple and the SAME thing happened to me I went to my dermatologist and he said the best thing to do was leave it alone... Long and behold 2 days later it pealed off but not like a scab more like... A nail polish strip, it didn't hurt wasn't tender it was like it never happenend

Salt and ice burns skin... Thats why theres a challenge called the salt and ice challenge which leaves scars... Never do that again!!
