Jayneeta sent us this simple glow face recipe that will help restore the glow of your skin.
Jayneeta mentions turmeric here in this recipe. Turmeric refers to turmeric paste, a paste often used in India as it is believed it restores the natural glow of the face.
Also, it is known for its anti inflammatory and skin lightening properties.
Glowing face mask
Mix the ingredients and leave on the face for 15 minutes, until the skin feels dry and tight. Using cold water, rinse it off. This mask can be used every day.
She also mentions milk powder, a wonderful ingredient which when used on the skin, softens and adds moisture like not many other ingredients out there. Here is a great hydrating facial mask recipe based on milk powder and cucumber.
Thanks Jayneeta!
