hm.. ive also heard this.

i remember trying it once. i think its just burns the spot, so may leave some scarring. i wouldnt rely on it as solution. i think its more of an old wive's tale.

Toothpaste just irritates the skin. Also, the fluoride in it can actually TRIGGER breakouts in some people.

The only good thing is that it dries the pimple...that's it. It made my pimples worse, though.

it will dry it out. if u have oily skin like me this will usually leave an unsightly whitehead that you cant help but pop. which leads to scarring.

I did this only twice...once on my chest, which did a good job of making it making it less noticable, and once on my forehead, which didn't make it go away, but it dried it enough that it went away quicker. i didn't mind because my hair covers my forehead
