I have some pimples on my face and I want to get rid of them. So I've heard about toothpaste, does it actually work?

When should I apply it, for have long, and how should I put it?

Nope it burns the skin I've done this once it. Runes the spot and I had a hole on my face it was soo sore! Anyway use face masks and there's this product called Greece lightning by lush cosmetics its soo good! Also sodocream works! Or tea tree

It works pure white toothpaste not whitening or gel but its not particually good for your skin and its for your teeth not face I said this on another post but
*exfoliate your face
*steam over hot bowl of water with a towel on your head
*splash your face with cold water to close pores
*put some tea tree oil,sudocreme,tcp or whatever helps pimples on over night they should be gone or a lot less noticable depending on the size

You can rub a lemon on the acne to take the redness away, the lemon acts as a natural bleach, that's why people use it for high lights (:

I do it and works amazing for me plus popping it actually doesn't leave me scars it makes it smooth the only way it gives you scars is if its not ready to be popped if it isn't white its not ready if its white you can pop it but you have to get all the gunk out and clean it afterwords or it can infect any other areas I'm sick of people saying oh don't pop them everyone ik is smart enough to know that you can pop them but it has to b the right time hate all you want but I'm in cosmetology classes so yeah ik this stuff I've studdies skincare for a very long time my stepmoms in beauty school also.

Everyones skin is different though Samii my friend got scarred badly from using toothpaste and some people don't always want to pop them because it is gross anyway,I have done a lot of research into it beacuse I had bad skin in year eight and I found out all of those things are bad and I do break out when I pop them so.

I don't I did research also is rather pop them then have a gross white thing on my face.

Well I personally rather wait over night for it to go or conceal it.



and if it does apparrently work make sure you can stand strong smells and your eyes watering and your face burning.

My skin doesn't get irritated I put it on over night and by the time I wake up the pimples gone and it only burns a lil but that's cuz it's cleaning it out.

Don't use toothpaste. It's not meant for acne!! Use honey! It's much more natural and actually has antibacterial properties, and won't dry out your skin. As for popping pimples, you should only pop them when they are white and veryyyy gently.

Also, usually when your skin burns ^^ it's not a good sign. It's not "cleaning it out", it's irritating it.

That's what I was saying ^ only when white cuz that means its ready to b popped
