Not only Colgate any non gel toothpaste. Apply some toothpaste on the pimple and Ice down the pimple before bed, by morning it should be noticeably better. More such solutions at http://solutionsforpimples.blogspot.com/

I think that would hurt and I have never heard of it helping. Seeing as I have used toothpaste paste as a non-abrasive cleaner, and it has also bleached where it spotted a dark shirt I was wearing, I wouldn't want to put it on a pimple. That doesn't mean it won't work out for you, but I'd see a dermatologist if your pimple is desperate.

Only the regular kind and depends on how much you put on the pimple, if you put too much, it will burn your skin and leave a acne scar. Be careful! But the best way to get rid of a pimple is not with toothpaste.

Yes it is true - it dries out the spot. It's not good for the skin though because it can cause the spot to flake off (not a good look) and dries out the surrounding skin.
Try witch hazel or tea tree oil both natural antiseptics that are harsh on the spot but dont harm the skin

It's true, but it'll take days before your pimple fully goes away. This does not mean that it won't come back.
Please check out one of the links on my page (by clicking my icon first) as I am unable to post them here for unknown reasons. They will help. Good luck.

I really don't think so because toothpaste has no effect on the skin expect whe it gets on it it itches. I would use like skin products to get it off or try to popp it.

not a cool look but if you dab some on and sleep overnight,it helps dry it up.Won't disappear but it won't look so bad.Not too much though cos you'll get a red patch.And use the proper toothpaste not the gel stuff...xx
