Can toothpaste make a pimple go away?
Can toothpaste make a pimple go away? "Using toothpaste can cause a skin reaction and make a pimple worse. Before 2016, toothpaste had an ingredient called Triclosan, which could help dry out pimples; however, this ingredient has been banned by the FDA since 2016 and is no longer found in toothpaste. Instead, treat with one of these: Benzoyl peroxide, Salicylic acid, or Adapalene."
