yes, it does. and some people even think that it works just as well as any sore pimple, or spot treatment. this is because it has an antibacterial ingredient that is usually in deodorant, soap, or mouthwash that can kill the bacteria. however, it depends on the person. everyone's skin is different, and they break out for different reasons. toothpaste has worked for me, and i usually use it as a cheap way to get rid of large, or sore pimples faster.

How do you deal with pimples at the last minute?
Many people swear by putting toothpaste on and letting it dry before washing it off. It seems to shrink the cyst.
Does toothpaste help clear out pimples?
Usually, it does. It only works with a toothPASTE not toothpaste (the gel kind). I would recommend using Crest (the regular mint kind). What it does is it crusts up and dries (I would leave it on either overnight or 3-4 hours at a time. After you wake up (or time is up) wash your toothpaste off and put on some lotion. That should do it!
Does toothpaste get rid of pimples?
Toothpaste dries out pimples, which can cause them to go away faster. However, toothpaste can also "burn" your skin if left on too long or applied to heavily. Use a pimple cream instead.

How do you get rid of acne over night?

How do you get rid of popped pimples fast?
I know this answer sounds weird but it actually works. If you rub toothpaste into your skin where your pimples are right before you go to sleep they get much smaller. Toothpaste makes the pimples dry so they shrivel and become much smaller. Also toothpaste has fluoride, which kill the bacteria and makes the pimples cleaner so they are not as clogged and disgusting. Another thing you can do is pop them, but you can't pop them right when you get them you must pop them when they are ready (which could take a while). It worked for me and now the pimples are gone! :D
Do you wash off the toothpaste within 30 minutes to get rid of pimples?
It works best if you leave it on overnight, then wash it off in the morning. But spot treatments usually work better than toothpaste, so use one of those if you can

I'm not sure what Tobe past is, but putting toothpaste on a pimple will reduce the size and redness of the pimple. Gel toothpaste WILL NOT work, it must be the regular toothpaste.
How to get rid of sits and pimples?
Use acne cleansers, and try not to stress out. When you stress out, it makes you break out big time. And if these don't work, I heard something about using toothpaste...
Will Colgate toothpaste make pimples go away?
No, using Colgate on acne spots will not necessarily improve your skin. Toothpaste will have a drying effect though, and could cause further irritation, peeling, and redness. To more effectively treat acne, use a formula specifically for skin, such as benzoyl peroxide.
How do you get rid of small pimples in a few hours?
This won't work in a few hours, but it can help overnight. Wash your face with a warm washcloth and pat dry. Put a dab of any kind of toothpaste that is completely white, and dab the toothpaste onto the pimples. The toothpaste helps to dry blemishes so they either get smaller or disappear. If a pimple already has formed a "head", try using a warm compress --warm washcloth put over it for 15 minutes, then pat dry and try the toothpaste. In the morning, remember to wash your face to remove any leftover toothpaste! However! I need to say that even if the pimples do not disappear, you must remember that many teens experience break outs. Don't be embarrassed by it.
