Haha I actually used to try this at home. Lemonade wouldn't work too well because the sugar content in the drink will actually irritate your skin. Just plain lemon will actually work better even though it will sting more. I don't think Lemon will do much for acne though. It works well for acne scars.
Toothpaste on the other hand reacts differently to each person. First of all you have to make sure to sure the right brand. Certain brands like colgate will dry out your skin causing your skin to peel. Natural brands like Toms do much better to treat acne. Also, make sure to choose a toothpaste without a whitening agent.
For me, Toothpaste is very temporary. I would only use it if there is an important dance or date the next day. You would normally use toothpaste on huge cysts and pimples that are isolated. when I used it, the pimple sort of shrunk the next day, but it nothing to actually get rid of it. Over time, the pimple will rise back up and it will take longer to heal.
So toothpaste will work right away, but in the long run it isn't a good idea. You'll still have to deal with that huge cyst. :]

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

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
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!

Baking soda is very good. A lot of toothpaste brands use it. Baking soda is good if you want to whiten your teeth. Baking soda is an old traditional thing and works well. Baking soda is better than toothpaste. The fluoride in toothpaste is actually very harmful to your mouth. All in all, baking soda works better. (Scientifically proven)

What is the most expensive toothpaste?
Beverly Hills Formula where I live. It's very ineffective though. I find cheap toothpaste works better than expensive toothpaste because the expensive stuff only has nicer packaging and extra random ingredients which don't do much.
