Hi There!
Today I will be sharing with you, the recipe of a simple fuller’s earth (Multani Mitti) based facepack. This is my favourite recipe and I have used it every single day for months together, especially during the summer months.
The ingredients required for this facepack are:
1 tablespoon Multani Mitti
1 tablespoon rose water
1/2 tablespoon milk
½ teaspoon glycerine (Optional)
Instructions:
Mix the above ingredients into a smooth and easily spreadable paste. The mixture should not be runny or too solid. Add a few drops of rose water if required to achieve the desired consistency.
Apply mixture on face and leave for approx. 10 minutes. Wash off by scrubbing in circular motion.
I usually prefer to make all my facepacks slightly liquidy compared to the readymade store-bought facepacks which come in tubes and have a very thick consistency. The main reason for me making all my mixtures this way is that I feel they are not only easily applicable but also dry off quickly. Moreover, considering that during weekdays, I hardly have any time to mix a facepack and apply it for like 20 -25 minutes, these packs dry in 10 minutes max.
There is something else I would like to share with you regarding my experience with multani mitti facepacks, usually I do not wait for the packs to completely dry, as once the mitti drys on the face it develops cracks and is very difficult and often time consuming to wash off and also I feel the delicate facial skin may get damaged in the process, due to the friction caused by scrubbing.
This recipe is suitable for normal skin.
This facepack is very effective for reducing tan and pigmentation. Also, I feel is very relaxing as the aroma of rose water makes me instantly at ease and be with myself for some time.
I will make separate posts regarding each ingredient and their individual benefits and post them soon.
Have fun trying on this facepack until then!!
