Nutmeg For Disappearing Acne Scars
Nutmeg is a spice that can be used as an anti-inflammatory which will help your acne scars disappear. It has been used since ancient times to heal many skin diseases including ringworm and eczema.
Nutmeg is rich in many b-complex vitamins including vitamin C, folic acid, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin A, and many flavonoid anti-oxidants like beta-carotene and cryptoxanthin.

How To Apply:
Nutmeg in particular is a strong astringent, and may be too harsh for sensitive skin. If you're sensitive, test this treatment on a small section of skin, or leave on for less than 30 minutes. The best and easiest way to use nutmeg for your skin is to make a honey and nutmeg mask.
Honey+ Nutmeg Mask
- Gather 1 tsp. ground nutmeg
- Gather 1 tsp. Honey
- Mix ingredients together in a bowl and apply to your face gently, without rubbing--or apply a small amount directly to acne spots
- Leave on for 30 minutes, then wash off carefully
- Moisturize
