Can Toothpaste really help to clear acme?
I heard that you can use toothpaste to clear away a zit is it true? I have a few zits that are coming up and I really am unhappy about it. I want to get rid of them as fast as I can. I am not a person that has alot of acme but when I get them it is alway right on my nose or mouth. Right were everone can see them. My mom says to just wash my face and they will go away. I do wash my face well but it take like two weeks. Can toothpaste reall help me clear them up faster?

I can only speak from my own personal experience. I have use toothpaste (not jell just plan cheap toothpaste) in order to clear a zit faster. It worked for me. Before going to bed wash your face very well. Put the toothpaste on the acme you have and sleep with it over night, then wash it off in the morning. You may have to do this for a day or too. Like I said it seem to help for me. However, I really think it is for that random zit you may get. If you have a bad case of acme I suggest talking to your doctor to see what they can advise for you to use.

Yes toothpaste can help clear acme. Make sure it is just plain toothpaste not any flavored or jell kind. Put the toothpaste on the acme in question. You may wish to put a bandaged on it to keep it from coming off. Since you may also wish to do this at night or while you are sleeping.
I would also say this is a good little trick to get rid of a zit before a big day or school pictures as an example. If however, you have a more serious acme problem I do not think toothpaste will be the right answer for you.
There are many over the cover product for acme but if you don’t know what to get speak to your dermatologist.
