Why it works
Holy Basil has numerous health benefits. It is abundant in flavonoids, essential oils and fatty acids. Triglyceride is a component in basil that helps reduce inflammation. The oils in the leaf have antiseptic properties which help reduce the redness of the acne and prevents it from becoming worse. Basil can neutralize free radicals and block the production of inflammatory prostaglandins. Basil also reduces the production of stress hormones which is one of the main causes of acne.
