Remember the time when our granny used to encourage us to stay connected to the roots and live naturally. I think they were referring to various natural ingredients to embrace our lives and also our skin. One such element on their mind would be the Fuller Earth aka Multani Mitti.
Multani Mitti has been utilised as a classic desi home remedy for skin woes in our households since ages. As effective as a panacea, Multani Mitti will help you in achieving radiant and fresh skin.
Here are some benefits of applying Multani Mitti on skin:
1. Exfoliates
It holds true that granulated scrub removes dead skin cells assembled at the top layer of your skin. But only when rubbed tenderly on the face. With Multani mitti, the job is even easier. You just have to apply it, leave it, and take some rest. Wash after 15 min to take off the dirt from your face.
2. Cooling Effect
Multani mitti has magical qualities to calm your skin. You can put it on in different cases such as rashes, skin tan, sunburn, inflammation, dry out red areas, and insect bites.
3. Removes Excess Oil
For your annoying oily skin, Multani mitti is a perfect treatment. All hail its oil-absorbing power. It can actually soak up impurities, oil, and sweat from clogged pores, leaving behind a supernatural and glowing skin.
4. Heals scars
There is no better cure to obtain a radiant blemish-free skin than Multani mitti. Due to its exfoliation property, it can lighten the pigmented area to take away acne scars and spots.
