Kasuri Methi and Curd Face Pack

Crushed kasuri methi in thick curd for ten minutes on oily skin. Patch test first, and rinse well.

Bowls of curd with green kasuri methi flecks, a bowl of dry kasuri methi and a spoon of curd.

A kitchen herb in a face pack

Kasuri methi is dried fenugreek leaf, kept in many kitchens for flavouring. Crushed into thick curd, it makes a short, fresh-smelling pack that some people like for oily skin. It is a cleansing, cooling pack and does not clear acne or pigmentation.

Keep the mask on for ten minutes and rinse with cool water. Use it once or twice a week and patch test first. Skip it on broken, dry or very sensitive skin, and with a curd or fenugreek allergy.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon thick curd
  • 1 teaspoon crushed kasuri methi
  • A few drops of rose water (optional)

How to prepare

  1. Crush the kasuri methi between the fingers to a fine powder.
  2. Mix it into the curd in a clean bowl.

How to use

  • Rinse well with cool water and moisturise.

Helpful habits

  • Rest the mix for two minutes so the leaves soften.
  • Make it fresh each time.

Precautions

  • Patch test first, and skip on broken, dry or very sensitive skin.
  • Avoid with a curd or fenugreek allergy.
  • Not a treatment for acne or pigmentation.
