Toothpaste has been a popular home remedy for treating pimples due to its drying properties that can help reduce inflammation and absorb excess oil.
However, it is important to note that toothpaste is not formulated for the skin and may contain ingredients that could irritate or cause further skin issues for some people.
Some individuals find success with using toothpaste as a spot treatment, but it is recommended to perform a patch test and consult with a dermatologist for more suitable acne treatment options tailored to your skin type.
