Neem has an almost magical effect on chronic skin conditions that often fail to respond with classical treatments. Neem has been a major ingredient in skin care products of India for over 4,000 years. Its skin healing properties are outlined in some of the earliest Sanskrit writings and its uses in Hindu medicine dates back to remote times. Even today, India's neem tree is known as the "village pharmacy" because of its miraculous healing powers.

Modern scientists have only just begun to investigate the many unique healing compounds found in this natural medicine factory. The seeds, bark and leaves contain compounds with proven antiseptic, antirival, anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal and immune enhancing properties among others. Although major studies to conclusively prove neem's effectiveness and mode of action are still incomplete, preliminary studies suggest the following properties for neem in creating and maintaining healthy and beautiful skin.

• Psoriasis - Neem oil and leaf extracts quickly and safely relieve the itching and pain while reducing the scale and redness of patchy lesions.
• Eczema - Neem oil lotions have healed the itching and redness recurrence for extended periods.
• Acne - Severe acne has been eliminated and the redness and swelling healed with applications of neem oil and extracts to the skin surface and with leaf extracts taken internally.
• Wrinkles - Neem can be used to reduce wrinkles by providing the skin a natural moisturizer with immune enhancing and healing properties.
• Cancer - Cancers have been reduced by daily applications of neem oil and neem extracts.
