Remedies for skin allergic reactions

Remedies for skin allergic reactions: the advice of Professor Akim Bouterra, complemented by what the research says (natural skin care, allergies, propolis, royal jelly, and hive products), the precautions to know, and our resources to go further.

The first thing to do is consume artichoke, which can be found as a juice or in capsule form. Next, onion will also be very effective; it should be used twice a day. It can be consumed with black seed, or with olive oil. Black elderberry, found in capsule form, is also a remedy for skin rashes. As a local application, you can use an aloe vera cream in the morning and a black seed cosmetic cream in the evening.

Natural remedies that boost the immune system should be favored, and among these are products of the hive such as propolis and royal jelly, which should be taken for three months.

What the science says: natural skin care, allergies, propolis, royal jelly, and hive products

What published research says about the remedies mentioned above, for context — the studies address material causes; healing belongs to Allah.

Natural skin care

Aloe vera promotes healing and soothes the skin according to a review of clinical trials (Iran J Med Sci, 2019) (Plast Reconstr Surg, 2018); in eczema, daily moisturizing with emollients is the foundation of treatment (Int J Dermatol, 2025) and the skin microbiome plays a central role (J Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol, 2023). Olive oil, black seed oil, honey, and shea butter are the traditional emollients. Precaution: test any new product on a small area for 24 hours; a lesion that spreads, oozes, or becomes infected calls for a doctor.

Allergies

Saline nasal washes, reducing allergens (dust mites, dust), and certain nutrients (quercetin, omega-3, vitamin D) reduce allergic symptoms; plants used in traditional medicine have been reviewed (Ther Clin Risk Manag, 2023) and black seed is being studied for its antiallergic action (Int J Mol Sci, 2024). Precaution: an allergy that causes facial swelling, difficulty breathing, or faintness is an emergency; asthma is treated with your doctor, natural remedies are added alongside it.

Propolis, royal jelly, and hive products

Propolis, a resin gathered by bees, shows wound-healing effects confirmed by a meta-analysis on skin wounds (Arch Dermatol Res, 2023) and value for oral health (J Funct Biomater, 2024). Like honey, these products are part of the apitherapy the professor recommends to support immunity. Precaution: possible allergy to hive products (especially propolis and bee pollen) — start with small amounts; bee venom should only be used with a trained professional.
