toothpaste?pimples?...?

Question

is it true that toothpaste can clear up pimples w/out over drying?

Answer 1

Yes it works. I use it. Just to for warn you, it burns like an oven. I am not even kidding. It hurts so bad.

Answer 2

1

Answer 3

Not exactly without overdrying... the trick is to put toothpaste directly on the pimple & not on the surrounding skin. It dries out the pimple fairly quickly. (This works best when left overnight, but be careful not to use too much or you'll end up with toothpaste on your pillow.)

Answer 4

yah toothpaste does work on pimples but if have sensitive skin i wouldnt try it! i recommend a really minty toothpaste like crest it may burn but in about a day or maybe 2 ur pimple or pimples will be gone!

Answer 5

It does some to help if you put it on your face, it works by drying up the skin and making the pimple hard. This makes it easier to pop it, but lemonjuice works just as well. I like plain old soap and water.

Answer 6

Yes !
Depending on the toothpaste
Cheap an nasty once tend not to work

Answer 7

Yeah, it works without overdrying because you are just putting it on the problem area. It DOES burn pretty bad, but the same way your mouth burns after brushing and then taking a drink of cold water. Try it a couple of times yourself to see if it works for you.

Answer 8
