Every heard the proverb, "You are what you eat"? Maybe instead of slathering your skin in store-bought creams that sometimes make your condition worse, try using an ingredient from your kitchen: nutmeg.


Steps

1. Obtain some nutmeg, ground or whole, and put it into a small container - if whole, grate or grind it.
2. Just before you go to bed, mix the ground nutmeg with some water or milk until it becomes a paste.
3. Wash your face and pat dry.
4. Dab the paste on to your pimples.
5. Wait until nutmeg-paste is dry.
6. Put a small towel on your pillow to catch any stains while your sleeping.
7. Go to bed and in the morning, see the results.

Tips

• Wash the small towel when necessary.
• Gentle enough to use every night.
• This works best when acne is due to oily skin.
• Use water to get the paste off your face.

Warnings

• Don't get frustrated if this remedy doesn't work out perfectly the first time.
• If you are allergic to nutmeg do not try.
