This is a tried and tested method by me and my friends. DON'T DO IT ! Use something like Boo boo zap instead.

Some do. I used to use this back in hs. I actually ended up going to school for dental before I went back for makeup and all it really does is dry it out. So I prefer spot treatments from brands like clean & clear and I am obsessed with clay mask which can really bring your dirt to the surface.

It works but what I started to notice is that it started marking my skin and since I'm in the sun a lot it started staining my face so just becareful on what tooth paste you use

Yes!!! It dries the skin but make sure after applying to put on an oil free moisturizer. Other than that it shouldn't be a gel but paste can be mint flavored I put it on my face like a facial mask every morning & night . It works!

I'm pretty sure that the baking soda in toothpaste is what works

So true it minimizes ur humongous zits and it they're tiny they might disappear:) try cinnamon + honey for acne scarring and as a face mask does wonders
