1 If your bruise is causing pain, take an over-the-counter pain medicine, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol), ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), or naproxen (Aleve). Read and follow all instructions on the label. 2  If desired, apply a natural product directly to the bruise.  Witch hazel may help heal damaged veins.
Also a big fan of linoleic oils! I have dry, dehydrated and acne-prone skin. From my own experience, it seems that linoleic oils such as hemp seed, rosehip (especially), passionfruit, and evening primose have helped my skin out the most when it comes to evening out the tone and diminishing active acne and scarring.
For smoothing hair or providing moisture to the skin, refined coconut oil will be best. If youâre making a haircare or skincare recipe, use refined coconut oil. Virgin coconut oil is better suited for healing skin conditions, such as eczema, psoriasis, dandruff, or acne, as it contains more anti-oxidants.
