Think twice before you apply toothpaste on pimple. Know why

Many of us apply toothpaste on our pimples to get rid of them faster. Although, toothpaste contains baking soda, alcohol and hydrogen peroxide which might help dry up the pimple and heal them faster, toothpaste is made for brushing teeth and not for the skin. 

Using toothpaste can cause allergies, itching and burning sensation on skin. Applying toothpaste on bigger pimples might heal them quickly but at the same point, it can make our skin dry and leave a deep mark on the face.
