But you can always improve the texture by applying aloe vera gel during the evenings. Do this for 2-3 months and the redness will slowly fade.
... I know this isn't problematic as much of the people's concern in this org. But still i just want to improve my skin. I used to have a smooth unblemish skin a year ago. Acne happened.. Thank god its gone now..but left me with facial redness... Ive been applying nature republic aloe vera gel since january... I swear it lessens the itchiness and gave glow to my face.. I wonder how long should i use it to completely eliminate the redness... Btw thank you very much for the response. I really appreciate it. I really hope aloe is everything i need.

The Spots are acne. You™ve mainly got comedonal acne. But you have a couple of inflammatory papules. The redness is very mild on the photos and i would say is mostlikely just post-inflammatory erythema.
Don™t think me rude, but you do have a mustache. You should probably see a doctor about that if you havn™t already. You might have PCOS.
