Reduce Pimple Redness With Mint Toothpaste
Ever go to bed with, red-free skin and wake up with a big, monster zit? or do you have red, irritated acne pimples? even with red scars left from acne you feel ugly. you stare at models for makeup and hair and marvel at the smooth, blemish-free surface of their skin cells. well, that's makeup. haha but you can still get as close to perfect as you can be without gobs of makeup on with this simple, pain-free method. and it even smells nice!
Steps
- Clean your face thoroughly. Get a warm, wet washcloth and gently wipe your face clean of all dirt, oil, and makeup. (You don't need all those fancy name brands and labels.) Then take a cleanser and rub it evenly on all of your face and make sure it gets foamy, unless it's a sud-free cleanser, because then that's okay if there are no bubbles. Then take your favorite moisturizer and spread thinly and evenly all over your face (Make sure you don't get any in your eyes).
- Take your toothpaste and put a small, neat dab on your index finger. Or, for more severe acne, put a nickel-sized amount in the palm of your hand and use your other index finger to brush some up and apply to face.
- Dab a tiny bit of the toothpaste onto each blemish that you wish to zap, just a teeny little bit. You don't want to get your pillow all messed up. Even though it smells nice, dried toothpaste is nearly IMPOSSIBLE to get out of your hair.
- Dab it into the zit like you would with the nasty concealers. You should still see the white of the toothpaste but not in the small, round way. Do this for each blemish.
- Leave on overnight and you're good to go!
Tips
- Use PURE WHITE TOOTHPASTE! The texture dries better than the bluish green gel kind. IT MUST BE WHITE!
- Do this at night. You don't wanna answer the door and look like you blew up some Ranch Dressing in the kitchen. Or go to school feeling embarrassed. Believe me...not attractive. For ladies or gentlemen.
- This may not work for everyone. The person that wrote this has very fair skin and maybe that played a part.
- It might not work for everyone!!
Warnings
- It won't kill you, but don't get it in your eye... it burns. Very badly.
- If the toothpaste starts burning your face really badly, IMMEDIATELY and THOROUGHLY wash the toothpaste off of your face. Consult a doctor if your skin inflames or gets worse.
- Do not do this if you have an allergy to toothpaste or something.
Things You'll Need
- White, mint toothpaste. IT MUST BE WHITE! Not white with a blue/green stripe!
