Zit-Blues
United States
Today, I had a large pimple on my temple. I decided to try the whole "put toothpaste on the zit to make it dry up" technique that all the magazines say to do. Not only is my pimple still there, but the toothpaste irritated my skin and my already large pimple now appears three times bigger. FML

Did you use gel toothpaste or white toothpaste? You're not supposed to use gel.

I don't know what the rest of you all are doing with toothpaste and running alcohol, I just use good acne treatments/facewashes.

It`s just a pimple no biggie it`ll heal in time...it`s only one so don`t worry hun. I wouldn`t put anything else on it though.

Same thing happened to me, it's best just to buy the medicine that I meant for acne. Much better results.

Use Polysporin. A pimple is just an infected poure, and Polysporin cures infections. It actually works.

You're supposed to leave it on for 10 minutes and wash it off
