Of course!
Cons:
Can tingle a little for a minute or two (sometimes unpleasant)
Messy
Okay, it doesn't completley get rid of the zit but it does help dry it out and kill it a lot faster. Especially cystic acne. But the toothpaste has to be completely white and you apply it directly to the zit and nothing else.

Pros:
-Drys out pimple
-Always on hand
-Quick drying
-Overnight spot treatment
-Emergency use
-Post-popped-zit pain relief
Cons:
-Only put a little on. Glob it on and you'll have white spots on your pillows
-White spots on your face (use when no one will see you)
I've been using this for years but yesterday I was stuck in traffic when I felt a nasty whitehead on my jawline finally bust. I hate the feeling of the pus oozing out but didn't want to get in more infected by wiping it.
Then I remembered all the travel toothpastes the dentist gives me in my glove box. I dabbed in on the zit quickly (in traffic) and the pain and icky feeling stopped immediately. I was so relieved!
I rushed home and cleaned the area to see that the redness was gone and the pimple was much flatter. Good thing because it probably would have spread the infection if I didn't treat it asap.
Thank you dentist!

Easy Go-to
I will first say, that if you have sensitive skin or are otherwise irritated by toothpaste, DONT DO IT! This can make your breakouts worse and cause rashes among other symptoms. Because it's also not designed for skin, I wouldn't recommend doing this too often, even if you DON'T get a reaction the first time. Just buy an astringent wash if you need it more than a few times a week. Word of the wise, don't apply this too close to your eyes, the minty fumes will irritate them. Now, if you're like me, with otherwise tough skin, toothpaste is a pretty quick fixer-upper. Just a dab or two on the hot spots, leave it on a few hours (or overnight), and it'll be dried out and ready to leave. With all its drawbacks, I only give it five stars because it's so quick and almost always on hand.

Pros:
Currently still clearing my acne! Works like a charm
Cons:
Aggravating knowing that you will have to hot rinse it off later;
Getting your pillow stained blue
I have had TERRIBLE acne since i was 13. I will be turning 20 in June of this year. I just started putting Crest (blue paste, not the gel!) Plus Scope Cool Peppermint for about three months now and my acne has been get WAY better, drastically. Bottom line is, I havent seen my face like since since i was 12, and im 19 boout to be 20. Thats a damn shame! Anyway the point is, THIS product, and this alone is curing my scne. I might as well say cured cured there has been a 87% improvent in my face within the past 3 months! Im so happy I started using it! Listen, acne only exsit because of the extra oil that builds up in out glands/hair follicles. Toothpaste is obviously a drying agent, so, its makes common sense that if you put it on your face everyday and everynight, then it will dty and kill all of that oil and bacteria! Thank the Lord for toothpaste!

Pros:
inexpensive, quick results, dries & shrinks acne, leaves skin smooth
Cons:
since i sleep w/ it on, the toothpaste smell can be a little overwhelming at first... who cares because the benefits outweigh the costs.
I have been battling severe cystic acne for 23 yrs old. I've tried prescribed medications, Neutrogena, and Proactiv in the past and nothing worked as fast and as good as toothpaste. With the toothpaste, I saw immediate & positive results in just one day. I applied at nite and rinse off in the morning. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw how much my acne improved and how smooth my face felt. I now apply it every nite and couldn't be more satisfied w/ the results. No more buying expensive so-called acne products for me! Toothpaste is the way to go!!!

Pros:
Cheap
Easy to get
Cons:
A bit uncomfortable when the toothpaste gets hard, and flakes off.
It works for me, but reading reviews - people use gel toothpaste which is often blue, green, etc. White toothpaste is what you need, because I think it has baking soda. Often, I try to pop the zit, or open it - then put on the toothpaste to dry it out. If it is impossible to open up, just slather a bit, using a q-tip, on the zit. It makes it dry enough to peel some skin off - then keep applying. Works very well for me.
It's a family remedy from my dad :)
