Aloe vera
Aloe vera has been used on skin for thousands of years, thanks to its natural anti-inflammatory properties.
Mr Göker said: “By soothing the skin, it is great for wounds, irritation and scarring, gently helping the skin recover while reducing the physical signs of damage.
“The powerful ingredient is shown to reduce hyperpigmentation in acne scars when applied a few times a day, providing effective results without irritating the skin with chemicals.”
Lemon
Freshly squeezed lemon juice can work great on spots, penetrating the skin to target blemishes at their source.
Don’t go overboard though, as the acidic juice could throw off the pH of your skin and make the situation worse.
Mr Göker said: “By using a cotton swab to apply the juice before rinsing the skin with warm water a few moments later, the short term solution is great for tackling those unexpected blemishes for a quick fix.”
