Does toothpaste get rid of spots?

[silviana]

My teenage niece swears that it does. She says that she and all of her friends use toothpaste on their faces to dry up their spots and pimples. Has anyone else tried this?

[macky]

Yes but it has to be normal toothpaste and not a gel. It can dry your skin but if you get an all natural or organic toothpaste you will have the best results.

I agree-normal toothpaste and yes it is hugely effective. You can't use it anywhere sensitive, like around the eyes but otherwise it's great. Put it on at night and by morning it's tiny by comparison.

I see, I would think if you got one that had certian things in it that toothpaste would dry out the skin. Have you experienced that when you used it?

[silviana]

That's amazing, thank you. I wonder what in the toothpaste does this and why they don't utilise it to make a cream especially for spots, since it's so effective?

[foureyes]

The toothpaste does dry out the skin which is why it works on the pimples. The thing is you just need a teeny dab directly on the blemish and no where else. It makes them go away super fast and works better than any of the acne creams and potions that I've ever tried.

[smokey]

It does work, but it has to be plain white toothpaste. Something in it dries up the pimple and it goes away quicker. I've used it before too and on occasion now.

[Charlie]

Yeah exactly-that's the whole reason that it's so good, because it dries out the skin and everything. I would imagine that something must have an antibacterial action too.

No body deny this statement , a standard quality product can destroy spot on teeth using regularly.
