Apparently garlic can be a great solution to pimples

Pimple

Do you have a pimple and are you now walking around with one of those ugly white things on your face? No need to panic; just grab a clove of garlic! First, you need to clean your face. Then, cut off the top of the clove of garlic and use your knife to slice a few notches so the clove can release more of its juice. Rub this side of the clove onto the pimple. Leave the juice on the pimple so it can dry overnight. Because of the anti-inflammatory properties, the pimple will disappear. This also works for pimples that sit beneath the surface of your skin. You’ll notice that after a night’s rest the pimple will be a lot flatter and less red. Small pimples will disappear completely!

Psoriasis

Because of its anti-inflammatory properties, garlic is also said to work against psoriasis. You can use the garlic just like we described above, or you can mix it with oil or cream. This can considerably reduce the itchiness and irritation.

Test

Some people are allergic to garlic, so it’s important to test out how your skin will react to it. First test this method in an inconspicuous spot, like your wrist or your elbow. If you’re allergic to garlic, or your skin reacts badly to it, you might do more damage than good if you apply it directly to a pimple.
