I have a question about a pimple?

Ok people say to rub alcohol and to put toothpaste on them. Do you keep it on over night?|||well alcohol dries up your pimples but DO NOT PUT TOOTHPASTE OVER IT. when people say toothpaste it%26#039;s some other kind cause one time when i was younger i put colgate over my pimple overnight and it was BRIGHT RED for about a week .|||Yes you do! In the morning it will be hard. Rub it off with a wet washcloth and your zit will be dried up.|||yes, and instead of alcohol, spray perfume on them.|||wash it with soap and water on it then put a dab of toothpaste on it dont use alchohol|||omg,i dont do any of those!! i use ivory soap everyday,ivory soap dries mine up!!|||omg dont use alchohol or toothpaste. its strips the skin and then you get more pinples cuz your skin gets irritated. i would use an exfoliating scrub because it removes all dead skin cells which cause pimples. but if your not gonna listen to me, dont leave the toothpaste on over night, but your not supposed to wash off the alchohol|||lol im putting on toothpaste right now. I think you should leave it on for like an hour. =) Don%26#039;t do it overnight if it is your first time. you might have an allergic reaction to it. So...yeah.
