Were you an acne-prone tween or teen growing up? Did your Mom tell you not to squeeze a pimple when it showed up on your face, as it would leave a scar or could get infected? It seemed that whenever I had an important event, like the semi-formal or prom, or even picture day, I would wake with a big fat zit that needed to be covered it -- even though everyone could still notice it. Thank hormones and stress for all the zits we had to endure at a kid, and maybe still have to deal with as an adult...yeah Mom never said that we would have acne as adults, too.
If you were one of the people who loved to pop zits and see the contents squeeze out and shoot onto the bathroom mirror, or just couldn't resist playing with it until it burst, then you will love the new Zits toy from New York City’s NSI International, Inc.. Yes, you read that right...there is a toy out now that lets you put a puss-filled zit on your face, hand or whereever you want, and pick and squeeze away until it bursts. No need to worry about popping a zit and leaving a scar, as this fun and addicting toy simply peels off once you squeeze out the "puss", and you simply throw away.
Maybe you were one of the few who never had a pimple and want to see what it was like for the rest of us. Then, you will want to pick up a package of Zits! and stick them all over your face, and then go to town popping away. You will see why it was so hard for the rest of us to keep our fingers away when we saw a pimple on our face. They really are hard to resist, and you just want to pop them and see what it is inside, or try to get it away.
Here is more about the fun line Zits toy line, available now at Walmart and most other major retailers, and online at http://igotzits.com/. You can pick up a package of 25 zits for only $4.99...which is a steal if you ask me. :-)

“Kids have loved anything disgusting since the beginning of time,” says NSI President Frank Landi. “Whoopie cushions date all the way back to medieval times, and plastic poop has been around since the 1950s. Every generation has its own spin on gross toys. We wanted to go where no toy has gone before and still be fun! So, ‘we got Zits!’”
In searching for the next big thing, NSI turned to a massive cultural trend – a social media fascination with pimple popping. Hundreds of millions of viewers around the world are tuning into platforms like YouTube, Facebook and Reddit to watch people pop zits. There are even celebrity zit poppers. One dermatologist, dubbed “Dr. Pimple Popper,” has 3.2 million YouTube subscribers and almost 1,000 videos, with a staggering 2 billion views.
Zits pop n’ play pimples aim to move to the “whitehead” of the pack, disrupting a potty-crazed toy market that has brought kids everything from cuddly plush poop to electronic fart blasters. Now, Landi says, “It’s the pimple’s time to shine.”
“With slime hotter than ever, we thought it was the perfect time to create the ultimate toy mash-up – adding some play compound to the thrill of pimple popping and the satisfaction of popping bubble wrap,” Landi says. “The result is the most disgustingly amazing toy ever.”
Commercials for Zits began airing last week, featuring middle schoolers pranking mom and dad, classmates, teachers and a school bus driver. One preteen even pops a zit to scare off a pizza delivery guy in a diabolical scheme to score a free pie!

Don't these look so cool, and so much fun. They would have made for a great April Fool's joke earlier this month. And, I can see them being great gift additions for family and friends celebrating an upcoming birthday. They will have no idea what it is, and then when they read what you do, they will want to tear into the package and start applying the Zit stickers to pop away.
My girls had so much fun playing with the pop n' play pimples the other day.
They were sticking them on their hands and face and squeezing them in front of my husband. Then, they started applying the Zits all over his face and arms and popping them, so that he could feel the "puss" ooze out.
Even though it was gross...it was a lot of fun, and had everyone laughing and wanting to pop more.
I will definitely be picking up more Zits pop n’ play pimples to add to birthday gifts and maybe even my daughter's party favor bags. This is one toy that both kids and adults will love, and not be able to get enough of. What will they think of next? :-)
