i have real bad acne i have tried stuff like salycilic acid and a little of benozyl acid and it never worked. I have asked a pediatrician and their otc product didn't work in which i have tried for 3 months. I have acne with puss near the surface and scarring which eventually goes away. i am using honey to calm down the skin right now. I can't get many products from india because i am in America so some stuff are limited. This acne has been going on since 2-3 years ago. I break out from a lot of spicy and sugary foods but thats it. I really want to treat my skin on my forhead and my cheeks near my nose. I have a lot of dark scarring though. Please help me figure out something I can do to fully remove acne

●Method for making the paste Ingredients: Yashtimadhu powder - 1/2 teaspoon; Pure almond oil - 3-4 drops; Raw milk - as needed. Mix all three ingredients to form a smooth, semi-liquid paste. This consistency helps it spread evenly on the skin.•How to Use - Cleanse face with plain water. Apply a thin layer of the paste. Let it dry for 15-20 minutes. Wash gently. 2-3 times a week is sufficient. Excessive use can tire the skin.•Almond Oil Milk Scientific Basis Licorice: Glabridin and Liquiritin regulate melanin production, reduce tyrosinase activity, and soothe inflammation. Vitamin E, Oleic Linoleic Acid, strengthens the skin barrier and prevents moisture loss. Increases absorption of active ingredients. Natural Lactic Acid (AHA) gently removes dead skin cells, smooths texture, and promotes brightness without irritation. ●Drink 1 | Amla Honey Water Ingredients • Amla powder - 1 teaspoon • Pure honey - 1 teaspoon • Lukewarm water - 1 glass •Method of consumption Mix amla in lukewarm water.
