Choose a ripe tomato that is free from any blemishes or spots. Ripe tomatoes are rich in nutrients and will be more effective in treating acne.

Start by washing your face with a gentle cleanser to remove any dirt, oil, or makeup.

Cut the tomato in half and remove the seeds. You can also remove the skin if you prefer, although it is not necessary.

Take one-half of the tomato and rub it gently onto the affected areas of your skin. Make sure to cover all areas with acne or acne scars. If you have sensitive skin, you can also mash the tomato and apply the pulp directly to your skin.

Allow the tomato juice or pulp to sit on your skin for about 15-20 minutes. This will give the tomato's natural acids and vitamins enough time to penetrate your skin and work on your acne.

After the recommended time has passed, rinse your face thoroughly with lukewarm water. Ensure that all traces of tomato are removed from your skin.

Once your face is clean, apply a light, oil-free moisturizer to hydrate your skin and prevent dryness. This step is essential to maintain the balance of your skin's natural oils.

For best results, repeat this process two to three times a week. Consistency is key to seeing improvements in your acne.
