1. Acne usually begins with black heads, which form when skin is oily [ as history says: not oily now]
2. Don’t allow to dehydrate yourself, thus avoid alcohol and caffeine containing beverages.
3. According to Ayurveda, your Age is in “pitta” time which is related with Digestive system thus following considerations [natural] are recommended
i. Triphala helps balance all the doshas and clean up the digestive system [take 5gm with lukewarm water at bed time [night]
ii. Avocado is good source of Vitamin E and Vitamin C: thus natural moisturizer and anti inflammatory fruit.
iii. Clean the area with Apple vinegar, Leave it for one hour and then wash with lukewarm water
iv Tomatoes having astringent and antioxidant properties help heal acne scars. [use them as facial masks]
v. Powder of Masoordal+ haridra churan+ Kesar + Rose water+ milk should be applied, if PIMPLES are not present and only black heads are there then add 3-4 drops of "Kumkumadi oil" to this pack.
vi. Spinach: contains Vitamin A [most important vitamin for the skin] and also helps to stop the production of sebum [ who suffer from oily skin]
vii. Cucumber: since both Vitamin A and C are found in cucumbers [reason of use in skin care products].
viii. Raw carrots: not only are an excellent source of vitamins, but also of magnesium and minerals. [both cucumber and carrot can be eaten and used as face mask]
ix.     Kale contains high amount of antioxidants which can reverse skin damage and provide with calcium, fiber, omega-3 fatty acids which help to reduce inflammation.
x. Use face mask with multani mitti, chandan, neem leaves powder, haridra with lemon and honey.
xi. Natural medicine [prescription drugs] available are: Maha Thiktakam kashayam, Patoladi kashayam, Maha Thiktaka Gritam, Guggulu Thiktaka kashayam / Gritam, Saptasaram kashayam, Khadira Arishtam, Kumari Asavam Sarivadi Asavam / Arishtam, Avipattikar Churna, Haridra Khanda, Chandanadi Lepa, Multani Mitti

PS. It is also requested that you check with a Gynecologist regarding any Hormonal Disturbances.
