katethegreat 0 Share Posted October 17, 2006 I spot treated my pimples last night with some toothpaste, left it on for 15 minutes, washed it off, put on some duac and went to bed. When I woke up this morning, all of my pimples were gone but one. I know I probably shouldn't do it anymore, but I'm really suprised with the results. Really, really suprised. I'm also using duac and Doxycycline pills. I'm not recommending it or anything, but....wow. Think I should stop? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ErynG54 0 Share Posted October 17, 2006 I remember I used to do that too. I actually found that it did work somewhat...but then one day the toothpaste actually burned my skin and left me with an infection. So be careful! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I did leave it on overnight which was of course really dumb of me. I can't remember what I used...some kind with baking soda though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
