Remedy
Skin shelfLemon-Honey-Aloe Vera Pack for Pimple Marks & Scars
After pimples have healed but left dark marks behind. NOT on active pimples.
From the household notebook
“Muhanse toh chale gaye par nishan reh gaye? Aloe vera aur shahad lagao — dheere dheere saaf ho jayenge. Sabr rakhna beta, ek din mein thodi na jayenge!”
Dadima’s tip: Sirf daag pe lagao, poore chehre pe nahi — nimbu se baki skin dry ho sakti hai. Raat ko lagao toh aur achha.
