  • In 1 cup of water, add ½ tsp of cornstarch powder and ½ tsp of baking soda and make a uniform solution and wash your face with it once a day.
  • Apply Aloe Vera gel to the face twice a day. You can also wash with its juice or rub your face with the pulpy side of the leaf.
  • Make nettle tea by boiling 2 tsp of its powdered form in water. You can add honey or lemon to it for taste.
  • Consume vitamin E, vitamin C, zinc or cayenne pepper capsules for speeding up the healing process.
  • Check which foods are causing the allergy and exclude it from your diet for sometime.
  • Wash your hands and wipe your face frequently and avoid touching it with your nails as it may aggravate the condition.
