Does toothepaste and or deodorant really help get ride of pimples?

Toothpaste, yes, but be careful.\n\nAlthough you might not know it, you could be allergic to something in the toothpaste.  Even if you use it regularly to brush your teeth, you could have a reaction against your skin.  Toothpaste dries out the pimple, so if you want, just put some on overnight.\n\nNever heard of deoderant though.

That depends on whether they are pimples or calcium deposits.  Either way, the best way to get rid of them would be to see a dermatologist.  They can prescribe a treatment or medication to help clear skin if it is acne. Or if it is calcium deposits, they will normally do a skin treatment to remove the outermost layer of skin then prescribe a medication to help absorb excess calcium in your body.

Actually, fatty and greasy foods shouldn't cause acne on your back. Also, don't pop those zits. Just don't. That's terrible for the skin, and it will prolong the healing process.\n\n1) Try some salt. Salt cleans out the bacteria. Leave the salt on for 2-5 minutes, and then shower off. \n2) If you exercise (which you should, it's great for your skin) make sure to thouroughly wash that area. \n3) When you wash, try washing with hot water (to clean the pores out) and then cold water (to close them up.) \n\nGood luck, I hope it gets better.

proactive is good, but expensive. just find a nice cleanser that is oil free and uses 2% sacylic acid to treat acne. be sure to wash every day and use an acne treatment gel.  hope that helps

you may think i'm crazy, but this seriously works for everybody i know that has tried it...\n\nDO NOTHING!!  \n\nseriously, the body has an incredible way of managing itself.  we try to make our faces less oily or more moist and less this or more that, and in doing so we mess up the natural balance our bodies are born with (using makeup screws with the balance too) so, if you do absolutely nothing to your face it will seriously clear up.  simply wash your face with water (distilled if you are serious) and nothing else, unless of course you have some nasty oil slick across your face from working on an engine or something.  just use water.   plain old water...  also try not to touch your face too much, and don't pop pimples, they will go away on their own.  once in a while you get one or two, but that is normal human biology, you just have to live with a couple every once in a while\n\ni'm not joking, this will seriously help you... and if it doesn't you haven't wasted any money on a product that didn't work, and you certainly cant do any harm at all either...

benzoyl peroxide works.\n\nhowever, I personally have noticed a correlation with foods I eat and acne. Do you drink enough water? What types of fatty foods do you eat? \n\nI think that if you can tolerate drinking pleanty of water, reduce caffiene and saturated fats it might help you avoid having to put on an acne medication. However, I don't know what your diet consists of. You might be a super healthy eater. In that case are you under a lot of stress? \n\nWhen I had a strict diet I had virtually no acne. I would try to use biore strips and I would never have any thing that stuck to those strips. Now, I care a little less about my diet (I eat more cheeses and caffiene) it is a lot different.

masturbation is pretty healthy both mentally and physically unless  it keeps  you from doing your other tasks like studying working or what ever\nand absolutely  it has nothing to do with face pimples its  a whole different subject\nbut fat and oily rich food  can inc the number  and the size of face pimples

The key to skin care for acne is consistency. An overnight cure has not been found. But using good skin care methods aids in the daily, steady improvement of follicle health. Since acne is not caused by eating certain foods, restricting the diet is not helpful. Since it is also not caused by "dirty" skin, excessively scrubbing does not help and can even make the skin more irritated. The best skin care for comedones consists of once-a-day cleansing with a mild soap or facial scrub to aid in the removal of excess sebum and dead skin cells. Oil-based makeup should not be used since these can contribute to the buildup of oil in the follicles. Water-based makeup labeled as non-comedogenic can be used safely.

Bang boom knows what he/she's talking about.  There is no proven link between diet and acne in the scientific literature.  Drugs and good hygiene are the answer.

Renewing Cleanser gently exfoliates dead skin\ncells allowing benzoyl peroxide to penetrate pores.\n\nRevitalizing Toner soothes and softens skin while\nremoving pore-clogging impurities.\n\nRepairing Lotion hydrates skin while penetrating\ndeep to stop acne-causing bacteria at the source\n\n\nIn that order :] I wouldn't suggest using Proactiv if your acne isn't that bad though. It made me severely break out.

When we discuss the problem ACNE, it is particularly inexhaustible topic and believe me I know what I am talking about,dear.The acne solution Solodyn has one active ingredient, which has shown over the years very positive results in curing or alleviating acne, namely the antibiotic Minocycline ( actually it is from the group of the tetracycline's as Doxicycline, Erythromicyne,etc). I ave no idea about the severity of acne you have, is it mild,cystic, but at any event the choice of the therapy should be administered by a dermatology st, because no creams over the counter help in this skin condition. Then another vital point is the healthy living and the specified diet, a balanced one, the intake of plenty of pure water ( if you drink at least 8 glasses a day you would observe great results),eating of raw veggies and fruits. There are so many factors that are causing aggravation of acne,especially the stress.Well, as to "Solodyn" it can either work well for you or not, that is the truth,for the sake of the personal response to the medication( to some people just Minocyclyne is not strong enough) and your dermatologyst prescribed you only topical solution without a medicine for the peroral intake? It's not wise, the best results are obtained when there is synchronized topical and internal treatment. If you ask me I would recommend you as one of the best choices Zynerit,which contains the antibiotic Erythromycin and Zink, it is proven the effect and this antibiotic works best among the others.\nI think I should stop writing, because as I said from the beginning it is inexhaustible theme. If you need contact me, I will help you with whatever I could.\nTake care.Do not feel down because of pimples, please..\nHave a great time!

Well i am a teen and i have prob. w/ acne as well... During the day you may notice like you forhead is feeling a little sweaty, any time you get (even if you just rinse) a chance, in the bathroom anywhere near a sink really. just rinse your face off and dry w/ a towel. repeat until your skin feels ...not sweaty any more. What that sweat is its an irritant to your acne, causing it to multiply i guess you could say.  Yes ProActive And AcneFree are good progucts to use and can get slightly pricy.\n\nA really cheap product you can use find it in wal-mart etc.. Its Called "Sea Breeze", !st, rinse your face with water, then use the Sea Breeze to completely clean your face. I recomend if you want to see how much dirt, sweat, gross stuff thats oin your face...etc...use tissue after you apply the SeaBreeze to face, to dry off your face, look at all whats on the tissue..gross.
