Hey Lovelies....
Oily skin
can be very tricky to handle sometimes, especially in humid atmosphere. It can
be prone to spots, discolouration and uneven skin tones. I also have an oily
skin and experience all these problems time to time. My approach towards skin
care is as much as possible, Natural. So, today I am gonna share a very simple
and easy DIY mask to combat these entire problem when apply at least once a
week.
It is a
chickpea flour mask with lemon and turmeric.
Chickpea
flour is also known as besan or garbanzo beans flour. It has been used for ages
to clean and exfoliate the dead skin. People have been using this to wash their
faces instead of soap. Because it is gentle and also remove any oil and dirt
form the skin.
Lemon is
a very good bleaching agent. It works very well to fade any post blemish marks
and to correct any uneven skin.
Turmeric
has anti-inflammatory properties, so it cools down all the spot and also prevents
spreading the bacteria.
Caution:
As this
mask has lemon in it (although very little amount), so it is recommended to
avoid the sun exposure after the application. It is better to apply this mask
at night.
Now note
down what you will need for this mask:
- Chickpea
flour ( Besan) 2 tbspoons
- Turmeric
a small pinch
- Lemon
3 to 4 drops
- Rose
water or plain water to mix
- Spatula
or can use fingers for application
Methods:
Just mix
everything together to make a paste. Apply on your face and neck. Wait for 10
or until dry. Rinse with normal tap water slightly scrubbing it off. You will
see an instant effect. Your complexion will look more radiant and fresh.
Do not
use any face wash after taking off the mask. If you notice a yellow tint,
better to leave it that way and then wash your face with any mild soap in the
morning.
P.S. If you have combination skin, you can use few drops of glycerine in
it as well to moisturise your skin at the same time :)
I hope you enjoy this mask. Please leave your comments
Cheers
