Summer-Saving Multani Mitti Face Masks
As the summer sun intensifies, protecting our skin becomes crucial. While commercial products offer solutions, homemade face masks provide natural and effective remedies. One standout ingredient is Fuller’s Earth, also known as Multani Mitti. This clay mask offers multiple benefits, including refreshed and tan-free skin with a radiant, soft, and fresh appearance.
To address common summer skin problems like tanning, breakouts, sunburn, and oily skin, we present a selection of homemade face masks featuring Fuller’s Earth.
- Fuller’s Earth and Sandalwood Powder Face Mask: Mix equal amounts of Multani Mitti and sandalwood powder. Add rose water and a few drops of lemon juice to create a paste. Apply as a cleanser in the morning for clean, fresh, and bright skin.
- Fuller’s Earth, Cucumber, and Tomato Juice Face Mask: Mix equal amounts of cucumber juice and tomato juice. Combine with 1-2 teaspoons of Fuller’s Earth powder. Apply to soothe sunburn, remove tan, and achieve glowing skin.
- Fuller’s Earth, Honey, and Papaya Face Mask: Mash two papaya cubes into a pulp. Add 1 teaspoon each of Fuller’s Earth, honey, and rose water to the pulp. Mix well to form a paste. Apply on the face and neck, and rinse off after 20 minutes.
- Fuller’s Earth and Rosewater Face Mask: Mix 2 tablespoons of rosewater with 1 tablespoon of Multani Mitti. Create a paste and apply it evenly on the face. Let it dry for 15-20 minutes, then rinse off with cool water. Rosewater cools the skin, while Multani Mitti absorbs excess oil and impurities.
- Fuller’s Earth, Almond Oil, and Lemon Juice Face Mask: Mix 2 teaspoons of Fuller’s Earth, 1 teaspoon of almond oil, 1 teaspoon of lemon juice, and a pinch of turmeric. Apply once or twice a week to reduce pimples and breakouts.
