The pimple-popping simulator is an apparatus that allows a user to practice popping pimples without directly popping a real pimple. The apparatus includes a pliable body, at least one channel, and a quantity of discharge-like filling. The pliable body mirrors supple skin. The at least one channel mirrors a pore. The quantity of discharge-like filling represents the dead skin cells, oils, and bacteria clogged within the pore. The at least one channel further includes a first edge, a second edge, a lateral wall, and a reservoir. The first edge defines a main opening. The second edge prevents the quantity of discharge-like filling from escaping unless the proper force is applied. The lateral wall defines an exit for the quantity of discharge-like filling. The lateral wall preferably tapers from the second edge to the first edge, thereby mirroring the popping of pus of a pimple as a result of pressure.
