Face masks for all skin types
Face masks and packs are vital to keep your skin glowing and nourished. They help to stimulate blood circulation, tone your facial muscles and keeps the elasticity of the skin intact. They also get rid of the dirt from the pores in the skin.
In half an hour max you can unmask your beauty with these homemade face masks! (errr… forgive me for my cheesy pun but I couldn’t resist! 
)
Masks should be chosen according to skin types. Surprised? Well, not all face masks suit everyone. The ingredients which work for a particular skin type might not work for another.But there rarely a few face masks which suit all skin types as given below. I know these are all basics but just a reminder! 
A few pointers before I get to the actual part of this post
- For a dry, sensitive or combination skin DO NOT leave the pack on your face for more than 10 minutes
- For an oily skin wait for 15 mins before washing it off
- Multani mitti(clay) based masks are effective for an oily skin but not a dry one.
Face masks for all skin types:
Spinach Face Pack
Grind spinach to a smooth paste and apply evenly on skin and neck. Wash after half an hour. A glowing skin is assured!
Here is a face mask which will hydrate the skin:
Lettuce face mask
8 lettuce leaves
300 ml milk
Cook the leaves in milk for approx. 3 minutes until soft but whole. Strain off the liquid but reserve it. Place the warm leaves on your face (a clean one ) and gently press down. Leave it on for 10-20 minutes and then remove the leaves. Rinse your face with the reserved milk. This works wonders for any skin type
Melon and peach face mask
1 slice melon( musk melon)
½ peach
Mash these together and apply on your face and neck. Leave for 10 -15 depending on your skin type before rinsing off.
Almond Sandalwood mask
1 tsp almond oil
1 tsp sandalwood paste/powder
White of 1 egg
1 tsp honey
1 tsp curds
Mix all of the above ingredients and apply on face and neck and leave it on for 10-15 minutes. Rinse with lukewarm water and then with cold water.
Hope this helped!

seriously! i never saw them or asked
ya.. sandalwood powder is available at H&G.. ask them.. maybe that the fact that the sandalwood powder is from there can assure you of the quality

They even mix sasta wood ka powder with sandalwood and it is not at all easy to make out unless you add water to it. Sandalwood will mix well while the other wood powder kind of stands out

lol.. so many of you are in favor of this.. lol.. i used to make packs for everyone in college..
Deepika recently posted..A quick note on the ongoing offers
making pack is easy Deeps but thing is to preserve it for long
it isnt difficult
just dry all the ingredients and powder them.. although the peach and melon pack will be difficult to preserve 
uh:
Z.. a few of my friends wanted me to make a few hair packs and face packs for them and i would do it and the word spread and I started making packs in powdered forms and hair oils for ppl.. but the funniest part was when a teacher asked me for it

Deepika recently posted..A quick note on the ongoing offers
which do u think is better in terms of effects deeps? spinach or lettuce?
if you are looking at immediate effect then it is the spinach one .. but the lettuce one also leaves your skin refreshed..

But since we are on the topic let me go and slather something.

Wow Deepika… good one! I have never thought of using Spinach on my face
How does that smell 
it smells like raw spinach
but who cares abt the smell? its the after effect that matters

Deepika recently posted..A quick note on the ongoing offers
but if you dont want to use raw spinach then blanch it and grind it using the water you’ve blanched it in..
