Sandalwood and Raw Milk Face Pack
Sandalwood powder stirred with raw milk makes a cooling pack that stays on clean skin for about ten minutes. A little rose water keeps the paste easy to spread. This is a home ritual, not a skin treatment.
About this sandalwood raw milk face pack
Sandalwood powder and raw milk are often mixed in Indian kitchens when the face feels warm. The powder is fine, and the milk turns it into a soft paste. Rose water only loosens the mix and adds a mild scent. Nothing in the bowl is a medicine.
Leave the pack on for about ten minutes and rinse while it is still soft. The skin may feel cool while it is on. The pack does not lighten skin, erase marks, or settle a rash. Test a small patch first, and keep the paste off the eyes, the lips, and any broken skin.
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons sandalwood powder
- 2 tablespoons raw milk
- 1 teaspoon rose water
How to prepare
- Put the sandalwood powder in a clean bowl and stir in raw milk until the paste is smooth.
- Mix in rose water only if the paste feels too thick to spread in a thin layer.
How to use
- Wash the face with plain water and pat it dry.
- Spread a thin layer over the face, staying clear of the eyes and the lips.
- Leave it on for ten minutes, then rinse with cool water and pat dry. Once or twice a week is enough.
Helpful habits
- Mix a fresh batch each time and discard whatever is left the same day.
- Use milk that still smells fresh. If it smells sour, throw the paste away.
Precautions
- External use only. Do not eat the paste or let it sit near the eyes.
- Patch test on the inner arm and wait a day before using it on the face.
- Do not use it on broken, cut, or sunburnt skin. Stop and rinse if the skin stings.
