Nothing can beat the magic of an ayurvedic skincare routine that has its basis rooted in the ancient Vedic culture of India, explained Kavita Khosa, founder, Purearth, and an expert on organic skincare on Tata Sky Beauty.
Let us have a look at two natural face packs that you can make at home for a chemical-free makeover.
Detox face mask
To feel rejuvenated and get glowing skin, Kavita recommends Detox Face Mask.
Ingredients
½ tsp – Turmeric
1 tsp – Neem powder
1 tsp – Moringa powder
1 tsp – Licorice powder
1 tsp – Majishtha
3 tsp – Multani mitti
1 tsp – Honey
2-3 tsp – Milk and water
Method
Mix all the ingredients and apply evenly on your face. Always remember to remove your mask once it starts to crack. Do not leave it to dry completely since it takes away the moisture from your skin.
Anti-Acne Mask
Teenagers dealing with acne should avoid chemical-laden products and start using ayurvedic solutions, says Kavita.

Although these recipes involve natural ingredients, it’s necessary to check if you are allergic to any ingredient. Hence, do a patch test on your hand or thighs before trying these recipes, she suggested.
