This home remedy uses a blend of Ayurvedic herbs known for their anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antifungal properties. Neem, manjistha, and Triphala help in purifying the blood and eliminating toxins from the body, which can contribute to acne formation. Chandan, turmeric, brahmi, and jatamansi have anti-inflammatory and soothing properties that help in reducing inflammation and irritation associated with acne.
Honey acts as a natural humectant and moisturizes the skin, while rosewater helps in soothing the skin and maintaining its pH balance. This home remedy can be used once or twice a week, or as needed, to help manage acne.
