OK, I just got off the phone with my nephew, who’s in medical school. He says that pimples contain dead/keratinized skin cells, sebaceous material, pus, and bacteria. He said there’s a specific type of bacteria in acne, but he can’t remember the name of it offhand. He also said that makeup and pollutants are sometimes in the zits.

He said that it was rare for other foreign materials to be in pimples.
