Home remedy for blemish on face
What exactly do you mean by a blemish — a pimple, a scar, or some other mark on the skin? For acne and pimples, it is very important that you do not squeeze, scratch or otherwise tamper with them. This will only spread the infection and can also leave lasting scars.
Pimples will disappear in their own time, and the best you can do is keep the area clean and speed up the healing process by regularly and very gently rubbing a cut lemon or a cut clove of garlic on the affected areas. While acne and pimples are not fully understood, it is well known that stress worsens the situation. You should therefore try to relax. In addition, you should watch your diet — avoid high fat foods and caffeine.
Scars left by pimples and other infections or injuries are more difficult to get rid of. Some of the following home remedies will work better on minor blemishes — they may help scars to fade, but to get rid of them entirely, you may need to consult a skin specialist.
For blemishes, you can try applying a paste of sandalwood powder, milk (or rose water), and a little bit of turmeric. You can also apply mashed potato mixed with lemon juice, or a mixture of lemon juice and tomato juice to the affected areas.
