Didn't work for me

Unfortunatley tooth paste has never worked for me, despite many people recommending it as a great spot treatment.
I found an <a href="http://www.acnecareanswers.com/index.php">acne free treatment</a> that worked at this site: www.acnecareanswers.com. Personally, I've started a daily skin product regime, combined with a multi-vitamin and better diet! Things seem to be improving so far!

Acne vulgaris - How to get rid of acne
Posted 10/19 Comments (0)
Acne vulgaris, pimples, dots, spots, commedones, are...
I have had persistent acne for several years now. I've tried everything over-the-counter you can name. Proactive worked for about five years then for no reason at all just completely stopped working for me. I tried everything! The dermatogist prescibed several medications for me that worked but I just don't have the funds to purchase the medication. Someone mentioned toothpaste and I recall hearing that before but never tried it. Well I did and it worked! It worked within days! The only problem is that it will irritate your skin if you use it as a cream. You really need only do it as a spot treatment. So well I respect the author's comment as a individual living with acne over-the-counter acne spot treatments did not work for me but the toothpaste treatment DID!
