How to use onion juice for healthy skin

Onions

Raw onion juice can help make your skin healthy and glowing. It can reduce dark spots and pigmentation of your skin as well as treat acne.

Being rich in quercetin, one of the most powerful antioxidants, onions can keep your skin wrinkle-free.

Furthermore, the vitamins and sulfur in them protect the skin from harmful free radicals, while keeping it supple and smooth.

Aside these "bad" characteristics, onion can solve your beauty needs.
