Non-gel toothpaste drys out pimples overnight?
I%26#039;m going to assume that what is actually helping your pimple is the tooth paste DRYING.. as it dries, it helps dry up the pimple.. I%26#039;ve never known it to actually make the pimple go away over night, but make it less swollen and red.
Reply:I don%26#039;t know what is in it but I%26#039;ve heard this before and it really works
Reply:Not every toothpaste has baking soda in it but baking soda will work. Peppermint or tea tree toothpaste works great also.





Try theses also.





Baking soda:





Leave it on for 10 -15 min. rinse.





Honey:





Leave it on for 10 - 15 min. rinse. Honey is anti-bacterial %26amp; anti-septic. Honey contains copper, iron, silica, vitamin B, manganese, calcium, potassium, sodium, phosphorous and magnesium.





French clay:





Leave it on all night. It grabs excess oil, heals and gets rid of the pimple fast.





Tea tree oil:





Put a drop on the pimple. Leave it on. Tea tree is antiseptic, anti-inflamatory and anti-bacterial (You can use it a few times a day but it can dry the pimple and skin around it if you use it to much.





You can buy tea tree (essential oil) and french clay here:
