Even those of us who are well past adolescence can get the occasional pimple. Put the kibosh on those annoying blemishes by crushing an aspirin and moistening it with a bit of water. Apply the paste to the pimple and let it sit for a couple of minutes before washing it off with soap and water. The aspirin paste will reduce the redness and soothe the sting. If the pimple persists, repeat the procedure as needed until it’s gone.
