My Single Mom Life: I won't be using those again.

I won't be using those again.

I had to go use the bathroom, but when I got to the door, it was partially open and the light was on.
I knocked and Mark answered, I said are you almost done, and he said yeah, you can come in, I'm just cleaning my face.
So I went in to grab a couple Q-tips to clean my ears while waiting on him to leave.
That's when I saw what he was doing to his face.
He had my Rubis tweezers and was using them to pop his zits.
I screamed at him, "What are you doing?!?"
He said he was popping his pimples and using the tweezers to do it because he doesn't have any fingernails to pinch the puss out with.
I was all what????
Not only is that disgustingly gross, but so so bad for his skin.
Popping pimples makes scars, it leaves your skin with those pocks when you get older, your face looks disgusting when you are much older.

I explained all of that to him, told him to never ever pop his pimples, to just wash his face really good with the acne bar soap I bought him, then wipe his whole face down with the Stridex pads, and then to dab some of the acne cream on the pimples and white heads, with a Q-tip every night before bed.
Between doing all of those things, the pimples will dry up over night, the white heads will be gone, and the pimples that hadn't formed into heads yet, will just dry up and never turn.
So he said ok, which is what he says every time I catch him popping his zits and telling him what to actually do, and then he just does it again anyway.

But now that I've caught him getting pimple juice all over my good tweezers, I certainly can't use them again to pluck my hairs with!
So I'll be investing in another new one, and I'm thinking that I want this one this time.
These are the ones I had been using and loved.

I'm grossed out now.
*gag*

Good thing I'd already had breakfast before I read this...LOL

Yecchhh! Sometimes Mike gets a zit, and he pops them, too. Obviously he did this as a teenager, too, because he does have a few pock marks here and there.

I try to get him to use some of my benzoyl peroxide cream when he gets a zit. I have mixed success with that. Sometimes I wait until he is sleeping and dab some on him.

Maybe it's some kind of man thing?
