Skin diseases are the outcome of what we eat and what our life style is. So first step is to avoid spicy , fried and junk food . Avoid tea , cold drinks and excess curd. Avoid over exposure to sunlight and heat. 
Second step is to purify our blood bcoz it contains  toxins which leads to skin diseases including allergy.
Third step is use and consume herbal ayurveda products only to avoid any further harm to the body.
Follow this for few months and you all will be all right.
