Some Herbal and Natural Skin Treatments

Apply aloe vera juice on the affected area twice a day, as it helps buff up the skin.

Take some raw (unboiled) milk and add some nutmeg into it to form a paste. This is an excellent herbal skin treatment, and no scars are left after pimples disappear.

Take three tablespoons of honey and mix with one teaspoon of cinnamon powder to make a paste. Before going to sleep, apply this paste on the pimples and wash it with warm water the next morning. Follow this routine for fifteen days and your pimples will disappear.

Take a pinch of turmeric powder and mix it with a teaspoon of coriander juice. This is an extremely effective treatment to deal with pimples and blackheads. Before applying this mixture, wash your face properly. You can take mint juice, if coriander juice is not available.

You can use the juice of raw papaya to apply it over the affected skin. It helps in quick acne cure.

Take one tablespoon of lemon juice and mix it with one tablespoon of groundnut oil. Apply this mixture on your pimples to prevent the formation of blackheads and pimples.

A paste of sandalwood powder mixed with black gram dal is a good herbal skin treatment. Apply it on your face and keep it for the whole night. Wash your face with cold water the next morning. Follow this routine, and you will see the difference in a few days.

Before you use these remedies, it’s important for you to consult the dermatologist, particularly if you are taking any medical treatment.
