Best natural products for blemishes in India

A blemish is any type of mark, spot, discoloration, or flaw that appears on the skin. Here are the common symptoms for face blemishes to look for – uneven skin tone, skin discoloration, itching or skin irritation. Blemished appear as brown or reddish patches on the skin that can cause the skin to get inflamed. In severe cases, blemishes can also dry out the skin. These are a lot of best natural products for blemishes in India. And in this post, I’ll be sharing a mix of creams, serums, oils, face washes and more that can help to reduce the intensity of blemishes.

How to get rid of blemishes?

One of the most important things to do to get rid of blemishes is to follow proper day-to-day skin care routine. Ensure that you cleanse, tone and moisturize your skin twice everyday, in the morning and at night. What is also important is to follow a skin care regime according to your skin type to reduce blemishes. You may be using the best natural products for blemishes, but if you do not follow a routine properly, it is not going tp work for you.

Everyday tips to prevent blemishes

Yes, you have chosen the best natural products for blemishes, but what next? Is it advisable to use just those to get your skin fixed? Well, apart from using the natural products for blemishes, here are some tips for day-to-day skin care to prevent blemishes.

1. Opt for gentle and chemical-free products for your skin. Since your skin absorbs close to 60% of what you apply, it is the best choice to opt for chemical free products. Products with natural and organic ingredients will not strip your skin off its natural oils and thus keep it moisturized naturally. Using natural products for blemishes is always a good option.
2. Use a gentle cleanser to wash your face and clean with normal to tepid water, Pat your skin completely dry before applying daily care cosmetics to your skin in the morning and at night.
3. Opt for a gentle scrub to exfoliate your skin that can help to buff away dead skin. A scrub should be used not more than twice a week. Using it often can damage your skin.
4. Opt for a face-mask. Ingredients like turmeric, activated charcoal, honey, aloe vera etc will help to fade the blemishes. Some face masks that I can recommend are from Mamaearth, the pure aloe vera mask from Juicy Chemistry, the Nagarmotha skin mask from Omved Therapies and the Krya face masks are some brilliant options.
5. Peel-off face masks are considered to be the best ones for blemished skin. A peel-off mask will also add that extra glow to your skin.I have shared some DIY remedies as well in this post.
6. Drink lots of water to keep your skin hydrated. Well hydrated skin gets far less blemishes.
7. Eat a balanced diet: Have lots of fruits and vegetables to get their anti-oxidant power. Antioxidants found in dark fruits and vegetables combat free radicals effectively to help you get rid of blemishes and other skin problems.
8. Use a natural sunscreen: Whether you are stepping out or even at home. Using a mild sunscreen all around the year will help to keep your skin nourished.
9. Use lemon juice: Lemon juice is known for its natural bleaching properties. It can dramatically reduce your dark spots and blemishes due to hyper pigmentation. Citric acid present in lemon juice also exfoliates your skin to help get rid of oil build-up. This prevents acne, another major reason for blemishes.
