A good friend of mine recently recommended I try an at-home spot treatment using turmeric. Her abuela has used it for years and even at her 70-something years of age still has a clear, radiant complexion. This ancient Indian spice is filled with natural antioxidants and anti-inflammatories that helps treat acne almost instantly. Amazing right? if you're struggling with pesky pimples try this awesome remedy now!
What you need:
A small bowl
1/2 a tablespoon of turmeric
1/2 tablespoon of coconut oil
What to do:
1. Mix the turmeric and coconut oil in a small bowl until it appears even.
2. Dip a cotton swap in it and apply it to your affected areas. Make sure to apply 15-20 minutes before going to bed and leave it on overnight.
3. In the morning rinse off with lukewarm water and follow with an oil-free moisturizer that contains SPF (to help prevent manchas from developing).
You should notice a difference right away!
