Using rubbing alcohol on your face to dry out pimples can be very harsh and irritating to the skin.
Rubbing alcohol is extremely drying and can strip the skin of its natural oils, leading to increased irritation, redness, and even potential burns.
It is not recommended to use rubbing alcohol on your face as a treatment for pimples.
It’s best to stick to milder and more gentle acne treatments that are specifically formulated for use on the skin.
