Drying out or moisturizing pimples depends on the type of acne you have. It’s generally recommended to avoid drying out pimples excessively as it can lead to irritation and potentially worsen acne. Instead, using gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizers can help maintain skin hydration without clogging pores. It’s important to treat pimples with products suitable for your skin type and to consult with a dermatologist for personalized recommendations based on your specific skin concerns.
