How do you make a dry face pack?

Published in Skincare 2 mins read

To make a dry face pack specifically designed for dry skin, you can use a Gram Flour (Besan) based recipe that incorporates moisturizing ingredients.

Gram Flour Face Pack for Dry Skin

This face pack helps to exfoliate, brighten, and hydrate dry skin.

Ingredients:

  • 3 tablespoons Gram Flour (Besan)
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
  • 1 tablespoon Milk Cream (Malai)

Instructions:

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a clean bowl, thoroughly mix the gram flour, lemon juice, and milk cream until you form a smooth paste.

  2. Apply to Face and Neck: Using a cotton pad or your fingertips, evenly apply the mixture to your clean face and neck. Avoid the delicate eye area.

  3. Leave On: Allow the face pack to sit on your skin for approximately 20 minutes, or until it starts to dry but is not completely stiff.

  4. Rinse Off: Gently wash off the face pack with lukewarm water. Use circular motions to help exfoliate the skin.

  5. Moisturize: Pat your skin dry and immediately follow up with a good quality moisturizer to lock in hydration.

Why this works for dry skin:

  • Gram Flour (Besan): Gently exfoliates dead skin cells, revealing brighter skin.
  • Lemon Juice: Helps to lighten dark spots and even out skin tone. Be cautious, as lemon juice can be drying; use sparingly.
  • Milk Cream (Malai): Provides intense moisturization, making the skin soft and supple. The lactic acid in milk cream also acts as a gentle exfoliant.

This simple, homemade face pack can help to rejuvenate dry skin, leaving it feeling refreshed and hydrated. Remember to perform a patch test before applying any new face pack to ensure you are not allergic to any of the ingredients.
