If it works for you - lucky if toothpaste was made for zits it would be marketed as such. Some people have had nasty burns instead so try it with caution!

If your zit has plaque, sure!
It has been proven that toothpaste on a zit does not help, it can even irritate it more or burn.
If you need to put something on it, use some ice, or crush up an aspirin and make a paste out of it with a little water and put that on there.

no it's not bad but it doesn't always work but you must use a plain toothpaste with no chemical in it and put it on zit or pimple for the night. when you get up in the morning, wash it off to see if it's gone OR smaller. for me, i usually put toothpaste on a huge zit then put a bandage over it for the night until in the morning, it's actually gone or smaller. good luck!

Yes if you want to make them worse; get a product that is made for pimples and zit's and put that on them.

yeah! but it works even better if you use whitening toothpaste to wash your face. A tiny bit goes a long way though. No more than you use to brush your teeth.

mix baking soda and water to make a thick paste or crush advil and mix in water to make a thick paste and put it on the pimple it will dry it up and then you can put your normal makeup on it

no.....toothpase will burn it and you will get a dark spot that will not go away for a long while...that has happened to me in the past...instead put lemon juice and it will dry it but it will disappear after a day or two....let me know how it went if you decide to do this...take care

Why would you do that? Try pimple cream instead.
