You don't need a long list of skincare products for healthy and glowing skin when you have the aid of nature by your side. A simple and gentle touch of nature is more than enough to rejuvenate your skin.
And in today's skincare diaries, we'll talk about the benefits of neem for our face care.
A medicinal natural herb known for its anti-inflammatory and healing properties is often used in multiple skincare products. From treating inflammation to acne, it is an Ayurvedic ointment, with the Hindu Vedas regarding it as a sarva roga nivarini, i.e., 'a cure to all ailments'. Let's take a look at some benefits of using neem in your everyday skincare routine.

It removes dark spots, acne scars, and blemishes and heals infected skin, pimples, and rashes.
Keeping our skin healthy brightens the skin tone by increasing the skin's natural glow.
The antibacterial nature of neem leaves also prevents our skin from infections.
Neem pulls out impurities from the skin cells and effectively works on blackheads and whiteheads.
Lastly, neem leaves contain anti-ageing properties that reduce wrinkles and fine lines, blessing us with glowing and youthful skin.

How to introduce neem into our skincare regime?
Create this neem paste
Apply this neem paste monthly or biweekly on your skin, which benefits your skin in multiple ways. Create a neem pack for your face at home using 10-15 fresh neem leaves and grind them with water to create a paste. You can also apply it to your face and wash it off after 20 minutes.
Try the natural powder paste
Take two tablespoons of neem powder, add some water, and create a smooth paste. But be careful and create a thick consistency. Next, add a few drops of rose water with a pinch of turmeric.
Apply this paste on your face for 15 minutes, and rinse off with lukewarm water.

The lemon and neem combo
Lemon is known for its acidic properties and reduced face pigmentation. When you combine it with neem, the duo leads to a brighter and clearer complexion in no time. Keep the paste thick by adding some water and sprinkling a few drops of rose water. Apply this face pack and leave it on for 10 minutes. Wash your face with cold water and get flawless skin.
Treating dry skin together
If you're dealing with dry skin, then boil some neem leaves and create a paste. Mix the neem paste with turmeric powder and coconut oil. Wait for a couple of minutes after applying it to your face, and finally rinse it off. But if you're having severe acne, then quickly use a moisturiser after the paste application to seal the moisture.
Dealing with oily skin issues?
Oily skin and acne breakouts are a common concern for nearly every individual. If you're facing such an issue, then create a face pack with two teaspoons of neem leaf paste, add two teaspoons of rose water, and lastly add one tablespoon of lemon juice.
Rinse and massage it properly. Wait for some time, and moisturise your skin with a lightweight serum or cream.
