How many of you are a fan of DIY packs? Well, I definitely am. When talking of homemade packs you can’t possibly not talk about Ubtan – a mixture of besan (Chickpea flour), Haldi (Turmeric) and Chandan (Sandalwood powder).
For every skin problem, you have one or another Ubtan pack just with a little twist. And also you can use Ubtan not just as a face pack but, also as a scrub and face pack, isn’t it amazing?
Let’s check out Ubtan face packs for all types of skin woes.
5 minutes
30 minutes or until the pack completely dries whichever is earlier.
Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and add Gulab jal as per requirement. Don’t keep the consistency too thick or thin.
Apply this pack all over your face with the help of brush (including ears and neck).
Keep it until it completely dries out.
Wash it off with cold water in circular motions.
If you have dry skin then you can add 3-4 drops of glycerine to it.
Apply this pack twice or thrice a week.
Rice flour has been widely used in the Asian beauty skin regime. It reduces Melanin in the skin (Melanin is a natural pigment of the skin). More amount of melanin leads to darker complexion. Hence, by reducing melanin, rice powder brightens up the skin tone. Besan removes dead cells and Turmeric is a natural skin lightening agent. So, now you know why this face pack is a big thumbs up for us!?
1 tbsp. of besan
2 tbsp. of raw milk
1 tbsp of orange peel powder. If you don’t have orange peel powder then add the powder of 2-3 tablets of Vitamin C (Limcee tablet is preferred of lower mg, so that it doesn’t bite your skin).

2-3 drops of lemon juice.

Apply the leftovers on the back of your hand and feet. You can prepare the pack in an extra amount too.
Let it set and keep it until it dries out.
Wash it off with cold water.
Apply this face pack twice a week.
