Yes, in Ayurveda both Nalpamaram and Nagarmotha can be helpful for oily, inflamed, acne-prone skin because they help reduce excess oil, inflammation, and Pitta-Kapha imbalance. Suggested use: Mix 1 teaspoon Nalpamaram powder + ½ teaspoon Nagarmotha powder Add enough rose water, neem water, or plain boiled cooled water to make a smooth paste Apply a thin layer over acne-affected areas of face or body Leave for 15–20 minutes, then wash with lukewarm water Use 3–4 times weekly initially For very oily or inflamed acne: A pinch of turmeric or sandalwood powder may also be added Avoid lemon on active cystic acne as it may irritate the skin Additional Ayurvedic advice: Avoid excessive sugar, fried foods, dairy excess, and late-night meals Drink adequate water and keep bowels clear Neem, Manjistha, and Triphala are commonly used
