Here’s how you should apply this mix to your face for best results:

1. Steam your skin for 5 to 10 minutes. This will allow the pores to open up and enhance the absorption of the face mask. Improved absorption will also enhance the effects of the face pack.

2. Now, pat your skin dry and apply the blueberries and malai face pack. Lightly massage the face for five minutes.

3. Let the mask stay on the skin for 15 to 20 minutes before rinsing it off with water. Avoid using soap since it can have a drying effect on the skin.

Here’s why this home-made face pack works

The power of this mask lies in the fact that malai is extremely rich in fatty acids, while blueberries contain antioxidants. 

The malai is able to deeply moisturise your skin due to its fat content, while the lactic acid in it gently exfoliates the skin to get rid of the dead skin cells. 

Blueberries, on the other hand, fight the action of free radicals due to the antioxidants which can help prevent fine lines and work on hyperpigmentation.

Ladies, the next time around when you’re thinking about pampering your skin at home, keep in mind these two ingredients and this home-made face pack that can make your skin healthy and glowing!
