toothpaste on pimples works best if you pop the pimple first. trust me i know because i did it. it didnt hurt at all and it mayyyyjorlly reduced the size and redness of the pimple. also i can tell you three ingredients in some toothpastes that WONT work. ACOHOL. this will dry out the skin. and u actually dont want that. even if u hav oily skin MOISTURIZE DAILY. this will help alot. and when poping a pimple use tweezers it hurts alot less, and is easier if u dont hav long nails. another ingredient is WHITENING TOOTHPASTE. dont use this or it might give u a scar,blackhead or not even work.
hope that i helped! bye!

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.
What it does is it dries out your pimple(s) and kills the pathogens in the puss! [Because toothpaste contains a substace that gets rid of pimples (acne)] Tips/Warnings: Make sure its the paste kind not the gel kind. And make sure its white, the other leading brands don't have that substance that help you acne.
the toothpaste acts like a mask on your face, normally, the toothpaste won't take away your acne right away. however it will reduce the size of bumps. the toothpaste's minty smell opens your pores and cleans them out like a vacuum. It dries pimples out.Toothpaste also can get rid of Hickeys!
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.
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 it just dries the pimples out. but if you really want no acne just buy the stinking pro active solution.
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
Toothpaste is only good for pimples on your face. It dries them out. Toothpaste is not good for the skin. If you do use toothpaste for your pimples use white or clear toothpaste. Colored toothpaste will stain your face and make your face the color of the toothpaste for days. Also only put the toothpaste on the pimple. Not on your entire face. It will burn you until your eyes start to water if you do. Also be sure to not leave the toothpaste on for more than 5 minutes or else strong burning will occur.
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.
put toothpaste on it it dries up the spot so the spot disappears
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.
