10 Home Remedies For Pimples
Home Remedy #5: Aloe Vera
Aloe vera is yet another plant that is used widely in traditional medicine to treat a variety of conditions, especially skin problems. Aloe vera is anti-inflammatory and also reduces skin oiliness—two characteristics of acne. You can use aloe vera on its own or buy a product with aloe vera as a major ingredient.
To extract and use aloe vera gel as a home remedy for acne, cut a 6–8-inch piece of a leaf lengthwise and squeeze out the flesh. Cut up the flesh into small pieces and place them in a blender. Apply the resultant gel to your face or other affected areas of skin and leave on for 30 minutes before rinsing with warm water. Repeat this treatment once or twice daily until your skin condition improves.
