Scientists at the University of Wyoming discovered that most plants â even those on soils containing selenium â contained 10 parts per million or less of selenium, whereas a selenium level of 14,990 ppm was found in a sample of Astragalus racemosus, which is a selenium accumulator.
Popping Pimples Damages the Skin. Yes, popping pimples really is as bad for our skin as the experts (and Mom) says it is. An inflamed acne pimple happens when the pore becomes engorged with excess sebum, dead skin cells, bacteria and, often, pus. Next thing you know, you're standing in front of the mirror debating if the pimple is ready to pop.
Popping a pimple is never recommended. Not only can it spread the bacteria that causes pimples, it can leave major redness on your skin. If you have popped a pimple and you notice redness, swelling and soreness, there are a few things that you can do to eliminate them. First, you can try an ice cube to bring down redness and swelling. Just rub a piece of ice on the spot for a couple of minutes in a circular motion. Wipe off the excess moisture and then apply an over the counter acne remedy that contains salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. You can also use green tea.
