Why You Should Use Neem Leaves In Your Beauty Routine?

What are Neem Leaves?

Neem is known to have anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal properties. Neem has been used for centuries for its medicinal purposes. From curing acne to reducing psoriasis symptoms, it is no wonder why it’s often called a miracle tree. It is believed that eating fresh neem leaves can protect against cancer (although more research needs to be done). But more importantly, applying fresh ground neem leaf paste to the skin helps heal acne as well as other skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. For example, one study found that an extract from Neem oil was effective in clearing up severe cases of acne. Neem leaves have been used in Ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years, and continue to be used today for all sorts of purposes, both medicinal and cosmetic. Here’s what you need to know about using neem leaves as part of your beauty routine, and why this simple, cheap ingredient deserves its place in your medicine cabinet.

How Do I Use Them?

While there are many ways to incorporate these leaves into skincare, I've found that a paste made from ground neem leaves mixed with either mustard oil or rose water is most effective. I mix roughly one tablespoon of powdered neem leave with two tablespoons of oil (or rose water) and spread it on my face. The subsequent morning, my pores and skin feels tender and supple. You can also make a similar paste with dried herbs if you don't have fresh ones on hand; just make sure it's stored in an airtight container so it doesn't lose its potency! Neem has been used for centuries because of its healing properties but using fresh plants when possible yields better results than dried herbs.

What Can They Do For Me?

Are There Any Side Effects?

Neem is naturally beneficial for both internal and external health. Research shows that it contains antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral properties. You can safely use neem even if you’re on other medications or experiencing other health problems. Furthermore, there are no serious side effects from taking neem 0 internally; only mild stomach upset in some people due to a very small amount of compounds called monoterpenes. As with all-natural remedies, talk to your doctor before making any major changes to your treatment plan. Always avoid taking neem if you are allergic to plants from the Euphorbiaceae family (e.g., teak tree), pregnant or breastfeeding without consulting a doctor first, or are under 18 years old.
