Home Remedy for a facial/face mask
In a bowl, mix together 2 or 3 tablespoons of milk cream or heavy cream, 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric powder, 2 tablespoons of besan (chickpea flour) and 1/2 squeezed lemon. Apply to your face and neck, around the eyes and eyebrows, continously rub from neck to forehead, after about five minutes, the mixture will start to fall of. Keep rubbing in upwards motion till all the mixture falls off. Wash your face with warm water and pat dry.
The cream works as a moisturizer, turmeric is an antibacterial agent, chickpea flour is the cleanser and the lemon juice is a skin lightner/bleacher. All these mixed together make an excellent facial mask for clean skin, and if used regularly also keeps your skin clear of black marks and gets rid of very fine hair.
I have been using this for atleast 40 years.
