Skin care: Avoid placing any other abrasive creams on your face for now. The use of the toothpaste should have dried out the pimple and your skin will need to heal by it peeling off at that spot. Keep your skin clean & hydrated and avoid any soaps that can strip your skin of its natural oils. These are needed to keep your skin hydrated and healthy as well as prevent bacteria buildup. Best of luck
