A DAILY DIY UBTAN THAT WILL TRANSFORM YOUR SKIN FOREVER!!!
By Ankita
Hello Mi Amigas
Today, I will spare you all my usual ramblings and get straight to the point. Reason? Can’t just wait to share it with you people. This really works!!!!! Ok, let me give you a brief analogy of my skin. I have a combination skin that tends to get oily in summers (and for some reason during "those" days of the month). Though I never had a serious case of acne, I used to get recurring pimples, every now and then. And those would leave nasty marks that just REFUSED to fade.
I tried a lot of DIYs, over the counter products and dermats. But in vain. Either it would dry my skin or make it even worse. Almost a month ago my skin started behaving extra naughty with pimples and eruptions on my forehead, chin, and some around the cheek bone. This is when I came across this awesome DIY daily face mask/ubtan recommended by my mother, which brought about a complete 180 degree change to my facial skin.
Results:
-My skin doesn’t AT ALL breakout
-It balances the oil on my skin
-I do not experience any dry patches
-Can definitely see a glow
-No more tans!!!
If you want to know more this recipe from my Mom’s kitchen please stay tune till the end 🙂

WHY THESE INGREDIENTS??

This is a champion when it comes to skin brightening and even fades away dark spots very effectively. On regular use, it is known to remove facial hair and render a smoothness to skin.

3. Red Sandalwood Powder: Referred to as Rakt Chandan, it is a must in everyone’s ‘Puja Ghar’ Unlike its white cousin, it doesn;t have any aroma and comes with a reddish tinge. But do not be afraid, it doesn’t stain your skin. With its many medicinal properties, it nourishes the skin and gives it a more radiant, even, and age-defying complexion. It also helps to remove acne, scars and other signs of premature aging.

4. Raw Milk: Raw milk works wonder for skin. Packed with B-vitamins, alpha hydroxy acids, calcium and other potent antioxidants, it nourishes skin cells from deep within and provides ample amount of moisture to the skin. The lactic acid present in skin, removes tan, fights free radicals and helps in maintaining an ageless look.
HOW OFTEN AND WHEN DO I USE IT
Using it before bath time would be a great idea, however, you can use it at any time of the day. Use this once daily to see great results in two weeks.
IS IT SAFE FOR SENSITIVE SKIN
It is 100% safe for any skin type, however, it is always wise to go for a patch test first. The reason I call this face pack an Ubtan is, it gives you that bright glow from within, making the skin look a 100 times healthier. I would HIGHLY recommend all my readers to try it once and see the magic.
Trust me, ladies, you are going to thank me for this. I would love to hear your experiences and comments regarding this ubtan. Stay hydrated and stay gorgeous 🙂
Editor’s Note: This sounds really good Ankita, I will definitely try this!
