Okay, so I rarely get acne (I can thank my parents for this), but when I do, I usually get a couple really noticeable spots. Right now I currently have a big, red zit on my cheek near my nose and well, it's pretty noticeable. Does anyone have any good at-home type of remedy to make these kinds of things go away quickly? I'm open to trying anything. Thanks :)
