THE MAGICAL FACE MASKS FOR ALL TYPES OF SKIN THIS SUMMER SEASON

We all love pampering our skin and it becomes all the more important in this hot humid weather to get a hydrated and glowing skin.

Though many attribute face masks to have been invented in the 18th century and that to not in India seems not so true. Our Ayurveda texts dated almost 5000 years back have mentioned various herbs that are suitable to be used in summers in form of face packs.

चन्दनं घनसारेण बालकेन च मिश्रितं। सुगन्धि परं शीतमुष्णकाले प्रशस्यते।

सुगन्धबाला(fragrantPavonia root powder), केशर (saffron), चन्दन (sandalwood powder) have cooling effects in the hot season and  and are hydrating in nature too.

All these herbs are coolant by nature and so are very good to be used in summers and are suitable for all skin types.

How to use?

Take 2-3 gms of each and make a fine powder then add any of these to form a paste and apply twice a week

Milk: If you have pigmented or tanned skin

Honey: for dry, dehydrated skin

Tomato juice: for open pores and dull skin

You can also add ½ tsp of fuller’s earth or multani mitti to bind these herbs properly.
