Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine, offers various natural remedies for achieving glowing skin through face packs. Here's a simple homemade face pack recipe according to Ayurveda:
Ingredients:
- Turmeric powder: 1 teaspoon
- Chickpea flour (besan): 2 tablespoons
- Raw honey: 1 teaspoon
- Rose water or plain water: As needed to make a paste
Instructions:
- In a small bowl, mix turmeric powder and chickpea flour (besan) thoroughly.
- Add raw honey to the mixture and mix well.
- Slowly add rose water or plain water to the mixture until you achieve a smooth paste-like consistency.
- Cleanse your face with a gentle cleanser and pat it dry with a clean towel.
- Apply the prepared face pack evenly on your face and neck, avoiding the delicate eye area.
- Leave the face pack on for about 15-20 minutes or until it dries completely.
- Once dry, gently rinse off the face pack with lukewarm water.
- Pat your skin dry with a soft towel and follow up with your favorite moisturizer.
This face pack combines the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of turmeric with the exfoliating and skin-brightening effects of chickpea flour. Honey adds moisturizing properties, while rose water helps to tone and refresh the skin. Use this face pack once or twice a week for best results. Remember to do a patch test before applying any new ingredients to your skin to ensure you don't have any allergies or sensitivities.
