Stop Putting Toothpaste On Acne, Warns Dermatologists

While the formula does indeed have a drying effect, Dr. Baxt (New York-based dermatologist) warns of the reactions of applying toothpaste to breakouts.

“There’s a reason why it’s meant for teeth and not skin! Toothpaste irritates the skin, so some may believe that it dries out pimples, but what it really does is irritate and cause redness and peeling.” Dr. Schultz, another renowned dermatologist also commented similarly that “over-drying and even burning can occur on the skin from applying toothpaste to acne.”

The bottom line? Don’t put toothpaste on your pimples! It is still the wisest choice to use products formulated especially for acne problems.
