Today, I woke up to find that not only did the toothpaste I put on my pimple make it more noticable, but it made it worse. FML

Supposedly toothpaste dries it up, but it contains some chemicals that can irritate your skin.

Worse=more noticeable, am I right?

You deserve it for not using Crest brand whitening toothpaste.

Be proactive..? If it's as good as it's being endorsed as, that sucker Well be gone.

Not always... I've seen people get worse with proactive and for the people it does work for, the moment you stop the treatment it all comes back.

exactly. I tried Proactive and it made my skin 10x worse even after almost two months

I used it when I would break out and it definitely didn't make it go away fast like the commercials. It helped slowly, but honestly any face wash probably would have worked just as well.

I did say IF it works as well as it's endorsed... I've always had mild acne and never used proactive, so I'm assuming they exaggerate?

If someone told you a cure for depression was to jump off a bridge, would you do that too?

It depends... how high is the bridge?

I just look forward to smelling people's pimples everyday.

Just so you know, everyone's skin is different. Not every skin type is "friends" with proactive. Plus, proactive has tons of chemicals that can damage your skin. But your comment was funny!:)

You completely obliterated her comment, then you said it was funny? Are you familiar with the old robot phrase, "Does not compute."

Proactive worked for me then stopped. So proactive isn't my "friend" anymore.

Actually it didn't work for me either, I'm just trying to point out that there are better methods than toothpaste

I didn't know toothpaste had multiple uses!

why toothpaste? how does it exactly help, couldn't you just get proactive?

Toothpaste soaks up all the oil on your face. It acts like a clay mask

Toothpaste is a hell of a lot cheaper than Proactive

that sucks, but it's just a pimple, it ain't the end of the world.
