It can also prevent hair follicles from being blocked, help the normal discharge of sebum, and prevent sebum accumulation and the formation of acne. 2. Forsythia. Forsythia has a broad antibacterial spectrum and obvious anti-inflammatory effects. It can promote the formation of inflammatory barriers, reduce capillary permeability, reduce inflammatory exudation, and eliminate local redness and swelling caused by acne. It has a certain inhibitory effect on the secretion of sebaceous glands, reduces excessive oiliness of the skin, and improves the skin texture of oily skin. Forsythia can protect normal skin and reduce the occurrence of acne and folliculitis. 3. Wild chrysanthemum. Pharmacological experiments have shown that wild chrysanthemum is a natural "antibiotic" that can inhibit and kill dozens of bacteria. Therefore, it is widely used to treat various inflammations inside and outside the human body. When acne first appears and redness and swelling appear, washing your face with wild chrysanthemum water can quickly control local inflammation and prevent pigmentation caused by acne. 4. Sophora flavescens. It has the effects of detoxification, relieving itching, removing dampness, clearing heat and purging fire, and is very effective for acne at the initial stage.
