Here are some ways in which you can use this miraculous herb in your daily beauty regime to get that glowing skin you have always wanted:  
To Clear Acne and Dark Pigmentation: Boil a concoction of about 20 neem leaves in half a litre of water till the leaves are soft and discoloured, and the water turns green. Strain and store in a bottle. Use this liquid as a skin toner by just dipping a cotton-ball into it and wiping your face with it every night. Regular usage will help in clearing acne, scars, pigmentation and blackheads.

As Skin Toner: Make a paste of neem leaves and turmeric and use it twice a week. Regular usage gives you clear and flawless skin. You can add some grated cumber to the mixture as well. Treat Pimples: Use neem with tulsi to effectively treat pimples. Grind together a few neem leaves with a handful of tulsi leaves, or you can use the powder form, if they are available. Mix with rose water to form a paste and apply it to naturally treat pimples.

Control Excess Oils: For oily skin beauties that are looking for some sebum control, you can make a paste by mixing neem powder with lemon juice and a little bit of yogurt. This will not only control the excess oil but also prevent acne and infections which are common problems associated with this skin type.  

Treat Skin Dryness: Not many people know about moisturizing properties of neem but nonetheless, neem helps in getting rid of dryness of skin without making it oily, thus giving a very balanced effect. Mix neem powder with some water and few drops of grape seed oil and apply it to your face.
