Continue with this cycle 5 to 6 times a week and you will see a change in your skin.

Dry roast Cinnamon and Honey

Mix the powder with honey and apply this paste onto your pimples (more generously) and around the rest of your face for about 10 to 15 minutes before you wash off with warm water.

Mint
