Are you looking for a cheap, natural, and effective solution to have glowing skin this summer? Look no further than Multani Mitti, also known as Fuller’s Earth! A summertime Multani Mitti face treatment helps regulate oil and cool your skin on hot days. Multani Mitti is a mineral-rich clay with a finer consistency and a high-water content that is a moisture powerhouse. It is typically used as a natural cleanser for the face and body due to its deep-cleansing qualities. For decades, this age-old beauty trick has been a mainstay of skincare regimens, particularly in India. Known for its rich mineral content and amazing absorbing qualities, Multani Mitti has several benefits for almost all skin types.
In this comprehensive piece, you will explore 3 simple DIY face pack recipes that are suited to particular skin issues and their benefits.
Brightening and cleansing face pack
Using a Multani Mitti face pack is a common natural way to cleanse and brighten skin. It contributes to a more luminous and brighter complexion by removing impurities, absorbing extra oil, and exfoliating dead skin cells. Use this simple face pack made with natural and active ingredients for a bright, fresh complexion with deep cleansing benefits.
Mix half a tablespoon of sandalwood powder with a spoonful of multani mitti. Add a spoonful of fresh milk or rose water and a half-spoonful of turmeric powder. Put this paste on your face and keep it there until it dries fully.
The anti-inflammatory, exfoliating, and whitening components in this face pack leave the skin feeling nourished and soft.
Treatment for oily skin
Multani Mitti removes excess oil from your skin by sucking it out, and efficiently unclogs pores, absorbs extra oil, and aids in acne management. To make the DIY homemade Multani Mitti face pack, you will need the following:
- One spoonful of Multani Mitti
- One spoonful of lemon juice
- One spoonful of honey
- ¼ spoonful of turmeric powder
Make a thick paste and cover your face with it. Allow the mask to tighten your facial skin until it dries completely. This will enhance blood flow, causing your skin to contract and cool. Wash your face after a while to experience smooth, calm skin.
Treatment for spots and pigmentation
Multani Mitti contributes to a brighter complexion by exfoliating the skin, eliminating dead skin cells, and lessening the visibility of dark spots and imperfections when used as a face pack. For optimal results, combine a spoonful of Multani Mitti with neem paste or powder to make a semi-paste with water or rose water.
Neem’s antibacterial qualities will help to treat acne and reduce redness and inflammation. Multani Mitti is often used with other natural substances that are known to have anti-pigmentation and skin-brightening effects.
