Q: How can I zap zits without drying out the surrounding area?

A: An effective new remedy is RareMinerals Blemish Therapy ($28), a powder formula made with white willow bark, sulfur, tea tree, clay, and aloe. Though it's designed for spot treatments, I like to mix in a little with loose powder to prevent future breakouts in acne-prone areas.
