I wouldn't recommend it. I have a friend who said that it worked, and I tried it for myself one night before I went to sleep. However, the toothpaste gave my pimple a real stinging sensation (but I left it on nonetheless) and when I woke up in the morning and wiped it all off, my zit became even redder and the skin around it was flaking a bit. I guess that it works for some people, but, if you have sensitive skin (and I don't even have sensitive skin) I would definitely not recommend it.

It only works sometimes depending on the person. I tried it, it works but like the one person said try regular colgate bcuz that is I what used. It dries the stuff up inside the zit . Good Luck

for me it has never worked, but i guess it depends on your skin. Apparently, the reason it might work is because the chemicals in the toothpaste dry out the zit and all of the dirt and residue inside of the zit, preventing it from becoming bigger?

Well i actually tried that last night on a zit i had and it did nothing!!!! I have read from many magazines that it would work, but it doesn't!!! I read in another magazine that if you dab deodorant on the zit it will dry it out.. Good Luck!!!

It doesn't make them go away it reduces the redness and the swelling and dries them up. I do believe ti's the zinc in the toothpaste that is also in zit medicine.

Toothpaste will dry the zit up so it will go away faster. It will definitley work but it needs to be stright up toothpaste, no whitening, anti-plaque etc. Just regular toothpaste.

yup, ive tried it, it really does work. but u haveta have a certain kind. not all toothpastes work. try usin the regular colgate thats just all white. no other color mixed with it. dont put it all over ur face, just on the zits and sleep with it overnight.

my friend tried it before... she had a zit on her forehead. the only thing it did was dry up that patch on her forehead. the zit went away a little, but she had a really dry patch for a few days after..

It doesn't make the zit go away. All it does, is it maks the zits smaller. I works.
