I put it on over night or during the day when I can stay at home. I put a thick dot on the cystic acne spot and let it work its magic. Last night, I extracted some blackheads and you know how swollen and irritated red skin looks like afterwards...my skin was also feeling a bit tight and dry (dry winter air etc.) so I put Vicks all over my face like a night cream. My eyes were watering a bit from the scent but it faded after few minutes. I kid you not: I woke up with beautiful, even skin. I just had to use a bit concealer and loose powder... Man, nobody believes me that this is a skin saver!
Does the Vick leave a stinging sensation on the spots??
No, it actually relieves the pain with a cooling sensation. (At least for me)
It does not clog pores either.

Thanks to Vick vaporub, it does help in curing acne n I recommend all to try it once.. It ll help you.
How do you use it?
Wont the vicks rub off on your pillow ?.....therefore it no longer will be on your face ...I have bad acne and am looking for ways to clear it up ..by reading the comments it sounds like it works..
I just started using it today, I hope it's gonna work for me as well! How good did it work for you?
Same thing here I don't think I can sleep very well tonight! lol, but I will try my best not to touch my face on my pillow.
How long did you have to use it?
I was skeptical at first but ttied it for the first time last night and it flattened and shrank my pimple down to less than half the size the next morning...I'm definately sticking to this. Why haven't I heard about this sooner?
I used Vaporub and i used it overnight and i still do and it is working amazing so yes you can use it overnight
Thank you! The vicks is working so well for severe acne! It's like magic.
Does it have to be vicks
Does Vicks rub work for little bity tiny bumps? I have some of those
Can you please tell me the routine you use... I have severe pregnancy acne and am willing to try anything.
