Toothpaste??

Question

I heard that toothpaste works on zits. I kinda have sensitve skin. Wat about toothpaste and alhcol? Will it make my zits red?

Is it ok if it burns??

Answer 1

Toothpaste will definitely dry out a pimple. However, you need to apply toothpaste that comes in a plain, white paste, not fruity or zingy flavors. Also, Oxy makes an acne treatment called "On the Spot," that comes in a black bottle that works even better. Alcohol is drying to your skin, and would not be effective in the treatment of acne.

Answer 2

Toothpaste does work. What it does is dry out your skin like any other zit cream. I don't know about alcohol. But if you're worried about red zits, put a couple drops of those eyedrops that make the redness in your eyes go away on a cottonball. put it in the freezer for like 5 minutes. Take it out and hold it on your zit for another five minutes. the coldness will make the swelling go down, and the eyedrops make the redness go away!!

Answer 3

All I use is toothpaste and alcohol on my face. I don't have sensitive skin, though.

I put the toothpaste on the pimples overnight, and by morning they are less inflamed and smaller. I use alcohol on a cotton ball to clean my face every morning. It gets rid of dirt and oil build-up and leaves my skin smooth. Since I've started using it, my pimples have gone away.

I use Tom's of Maine whitening peppermint toothpaste. It's a white paste. :)
