Want this question answered?
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.
If you are referring to mint in toothpaste, this has been a long trusted home remedy. Applying toothpaste to pimples helps dry them up. You need to do it for about a week.
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
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.
Yes it is, and not only on pimples. I found out it faded the scars and dark pigmentation left behind by the pimples too, very good cream.
toothpaste works for me. apply to the blemish and leave over night. hope this helps :D
YES! if you keep the toothpaste on ur pimple for bout 30 minutes hten the redness of the pimple around it will reduce, and it will make it stop stinging! :-) UPDATE: you can also use eye drops (that reduce redness in the eyes). It also helps on 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!
no toothpaste is not a good facial cleaner. it will dry your skin and pores out. many people use toothpaste on pimples and zits to dry them out. i would not recommend it.
toothpaste or bubble gum thick cough syrup
You could go to a dermatologist or use a face mask, cleansing pads, cream, etc.
There are many effective ways to get rid of pimples and spots without visiting a dermatologist. These include using ice, toothpaste and lemon juice on the affected area.
