The best way to get rid of zits is by just keeping your face clean. Wash your face with a gentle face cleaner twice a day or wash it after you do a physical activity to remove sweat and bacteria. If you’re currently going through puberty, your hormones also can have a major play in acne and that for the most part is genetic. So I’d recommend washing your face twice a day with a gentle face cleaner and find a moisturizing cream for your face to apply so you don’t get dried out.
Toothpaste will irritate the skin, and the pimple will probably eventually disappear along with the irritation, but toothpaste is in no way a primary treatment for acne. Over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid work great to clear acne and help prevent it as well.
