I have heard that toothpaste can dry up your zits in JUST overnight ! I am currently trying it right now- but it has this burn to the spot where I applied it. Is this normal ?

Use zit cream; you can find it in the medicine section of Target.

Toothpaste really can get rid of zits - it use to be the big thing that wedding planners would tell their brides if they got a blemish a day or two before the wedding.
The most important thing is that you have to use paste - not gel toothpaste. Just dab it on and the next morning you should see some significant results - you'll still see that there was something there - but it will be small enough that you can cover it with make-up.
As for the burning - that's the minty-ness of the toothpaste. If you have sensitive skin and are feeling a burn more than a big tingling - the toothpaste is probably too strong for your skin and this isn't a good zit remedy for you.
If you want a 'real' product that will get rid of a zit overnight - try Clean and Clear's Blemish Remover - it's simply amazing!

Dr. Murad’s Acne Complex
All over the world so much research has been done to curb acne because it makes beautiful faces ugly and full of black prominent spots. Very many researches have been conducted and a few have tasted success. One of them is Acne Complex.
Before getting into the details of Acne Complex, we need to know more about acne.
Acne is a skin disorder that usually happens when a person is in the teens. During that particular period of life, in both male and female bodies, Androgen, a male sex hormone, increases. This increase of Androgen does not necessarily happen in everybodys body. But in whosever’s body this increase happens, it causes overproduction of sebum and keratin. This results in clogged pores of the skin and infection. This is called acne. In the case of acne the hormones can create acne beyond teenage years. Especially among women this trend is seen.
Dr. Murad’s Acne Complex says that 3 simple steps, 2 times a day can reduce and clear your skin in 4 weeks. Seeing the popularity of Acne Complex one can understand that Acne Complex is certainly effective.
In the Acne Complex kit there are 3 items. A Clarifying Cleanser, an Exfoliating Acne Treatment Gel and a Skin Perfecting Lotion. The direction of use is given in the Acne Complex kit. Otherwise you can learn it on the website of Acne Complex. You can even order Acne Complex from their website too.

Never tried it....you can use visine to reduce the redness. Corn starch is also good. Make a paste of the corn startch and put it on the zit for a couple of hours. Dries it up. I swear by the product Proactive. I use it everyday and haven't had a zit in months.

Toothpaste can actually make things worse. It is an abrasive and the particles in it are too large to be properly obsorbed by your skin. It has the potential to clog your pores worse and cause more acne.
If you need a quick fix, Clearasil makes overnight spot treatments. You can find them in the health and beauty section of the grocery/department store.

yes
dont do this though its horrible for your skin and will cause you to break outh more
i had horrible acne too and i found the perfect stuff
HERES WHATS GOING ON
we just learned about this in anatomy
your sebacious gland (your oil gland) is getting clogged, and this forms a white head. Well, when this happens in open air, it turns black causing a black head, and when the blackhead gets infected, it causes a pimple. an active infection is what is known as acne
THE BEST PRODUCT for BLACKHEADS and acne
Its been proven
is called ACNEFREE, it clears the sebaceous gland and dries up the pores. you can get it almost anywhere and it works great for everyone i know who uses it
it comes in 3 steps, but i also purchased the 4th step, called ther acne and blackhead terminator. It is prescription quality, but much cheaper
its like proactive only better
i really hope this helps

change pillowcases daily
wash your cell phone ,with a Clorox bleach wipe
change make up , it may have oil base
wash your face with acne cleaners, there is a whole shelf of different kinds and different prices that should work for you!
If you have cystic acne, you may need antibiotics to rid them
