Tried toothpaste for zits and need asnwers now!!!?

Question

Me and my friend tried toothpaste for our zits instead of apple cider vinegar. it burns and it;s making us cry. because we put it right under our eyes. the smell is making our eyes water, how long do we have to wear the stupid toothpaste.

Answer 1

If it is starting to bother your eyes, you should remove take it off right away.  Toothpaste can work for zits, but it normally shouldn't be used because it is intended for the mouth (to brush your teeth).  It may be the mint that is added to the toothpaste that is bothering your eyes.  But like the other person said, usually only 15 minutes is needed for it to be put on.  Careful when washing the toothpaste though so you don't get any in your eyes as it might make them burn more.  

              But some better ideas of getting rid of zits is using rubbing alcohol on a cotton swab and wiping it and holding it on the zit for a few minutes (3-4 mins) or even usiing regular pimple cream such as clearisl.  Also lemon juice can be rubbed on and left for 20-30 mins on the zit, although it may burn and may not be a good idea to use under or near the eyes as the acid from the lemon juice will burn.  Just some ideas.  

Answer 2

only 15 to 20 minutes but dont worry the sting goes away
