Say goodbye to acne with these three neem face packs—for both oily and dry skin

New Delhi (The Uttam Hindu): Acne often undermines self-confidence. Especially during adolescence and young adulthood, glowing and clear skin is everyone's desire. Red rashes, swelling, and pimples appear on the face, making it not only a discoloration but also a disturbing experience. Ayurveda relies on neem for skin-related problems.

There are many expensive products, creams and serums available in the market that claim to remove acne, but their effect is either temporary or their side effects can cause further damage to your skin.

Modern science also recognizes the medicinal properties of neem. Neem possesses antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties, which help treat bacterial infections, irritation, and inflammation of the skin. This is why neem is considered a highly effective natural remedy for cleansing the skin and getting rid of acne.

If you have oily skin, a neem and multani mitti face pack can be extremely beneficial for acne relief. While neem kills the bacteria responsible for acne, multani mitti absorbs excess oil and tightens open pores. This pack keeps skin clean, cool, and balanced. Using this pack once or twice a week is sufficient.

If you have dry skin and are suffering from redness, inflammation, and acne, try mixing neem with pure honey. This will not only reduce infection but also maintain skin moisture. You can apply this face pack two to three times a week.

If you're experiencing facial irritation, a neem and aloe vera gel face pack will provide relief. Aloe vera is known for its cooling properties, which reduce irritation and inflammation. When combined, neem and aloe vera deeply cleanse the skin and gradually fade acne. Applying this pack every night before bed will leave your skin feeling soothed and refreshed by morning.
