Quick Recipe
Prep time: 5 minutes
Best for: Dull skin, uneven tone, desire for natural radiance
Use type: Face mask/pack
Main ingredients:
- Gram flour (Besan)
- Turmeric powder
- Yogurt or Milk
- Rose water
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons gram flour (besan)
- 1/4 teaspoon organic turmeric powder
- 1-2 tablespoons plain yogurt or milk (use yogurt for oily skin, milk for dry skin)
- 1 teaspoon rose water (optional, for fragrance and toning)
How to Make It
- In a small, clean bowl, combine the gram flour and turmeric powder. Mix them well until uniformly blended.

- Add the rose water, if using, and continue to stir until you achieve a smooth, thick paste. The consistency should be easy to spread but not too runny.
How to Use It
- Start with a clean, makeup-free face. You can gently wash your face with plain water before application.
- Apply the pack evenly to your face and neck, avoiding the delicate eye and lip areas. Use your fingertips or a clean face pack brush.
- Leave the pack on for 15-20 minutes, or until it feels slightly dry but not completely taut.
- To remove, dampen your face with water and gently massage the pack in circular motions for a mild exfoliating effect. This helps to lift away dead skin cells.
- Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water until all traces of the pack are gone. Pat your skin dry with a soft towel.
How Often to Use It
You can use this DIY glow face pack 1-2 times a week for best results. Consistent use can help maintain a radiant complexion.
