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?

I guess pimples don't like the taste of Monty fresh.

It probably depends on who exactly this 'Monty' is.

that's why you don't listen to what people say on the internet ydi

Not to be rude, but why does everyone think that just because certain brands work for them, they work for everyone else? Everyone has different skin, so your facial cleanser that zaps zits may make someone else's zits worse. I'm sorry, but it's driving me insane!:)

That doesn't mean people with acne problems still shouldn't try different products to find the one that works for them. I don't see what's so irritating about people giving their opinion on what works for them, and potentially bringing it to the attention of someone it can help.

Reminds me of my friend who used to put Selsun Blue on her pimples. My advice to you, get an acne wash.

tooth paste and face wash are damn near the same price.

How is $2 toothpaste the same as any face wash? Basic face washes start at like $6 and go all the way up to the $35 one that I usually use (although I'm stuck with a $7 right now until I can order some and there is DEFINITELY a difference in quality).

I thought toothpaste was used for burns not pimples. Oh well that sucks.

that sucks. you used the wrong kind of toothpaste. it's not the end if the world

all of you are ******* retarded. toothpaste brings it to a head faster so you can pop it. does NOT make it disappear.

haha hon , toothpaste acts as a clay mask to dry up all of the oil on your face. Not to make a pimple go away . Use advil or proactiv next time , it will go away or be less noticeable. Good luck
