A member asked:
I used rubbing alcohool then peroxide on a pimple and it turned white immediately. i woke up this morning it is red and burning. how do i treat this ?

Leave skin alone: Leave the spot alone. Rubbing alcohol and peroxide in combination is very irritating to skin. You might end up with scarring if you continue to use these two products on your skin. In the future safer to use benzoyl peroxide and adapalene, both are products specifically for acne.
