Brightening Turmeric and Lemon DIY Face Mask


Brightening Turmeric and Lemon DIY Face Mask

Hello Guys,

In winters our skin tends to get dry and flaky plus it also becomes dull and lifeless. I tan a lot during winters because I have this bad habit of sitting in the sun all day, in these winter months my skin tone gets darker by almost 2-3 tones and after these winter months you will see me mixing face scrubs and face masks to get rid of the tan. I am a DIY addict, I rarely buy face masks or scrubs from the market because firstly they are overtly expensive, secondly they are full of harmful chemicals and thirdly because they aren’t as effective as the homemade ones. As this is the winter season, I will be doing a series of diy blog posts that will help to keep our skin glowing and hydrated during these dry months. Over the next few weeks, I will be sharing my favourite DIY face masks, body scrubs, homemade body butters, cleansing balms, hand cream etc.

  1. This is indeed a very timely guide.

    Although I’m not used to all these DIY face masks, because I usually don’t have the time to make them hence, I buy already made ones. However, seeing how simple the entire process is, I think I’ll have to check it out this weekend.

    Thanks a lot for sharing.

    • Hi Rose, this is a pretty easy diy and once you start using it, I assure you that you are going to love it.
