Fresh, Glowing Skin from a Clay Mask You Mix in Minutes

A freshly mixed clay mask can be a welcome part of your skincare routine. Our herbal powders let you make a DIY face mask with a single botanical, using a little water or another suitable base. Choose based on how your skin feels, and apply gently.

Each natural face powder here is 100% pure, single-herb and triple-sifted. Multani Mitti, our fuller's earth clay powder for the face, helps absorb excess oil and shine. Neem and Tulsi make a fresh, green Ayurvedic face pack for blemish-prone days, while Rose Petal and Gotu Kola soothe and soften. And for turmeric powder for face, add a pinch of our Amba Haldi to a homemade ubtan.

How to Make a Face Pack at Home

StepWhat to do
1. ChoosePick one or two powders for your DIY face mask. A single face pack powder is a lovely way to start.
2. MixStir 1-2 teaspoons of natural face powder with water, rose water, yoghurt or aloe gel until you have a smooth, spreadable paste, like soft yoghurt. For a clay mask, rose water gives Multani Mitti a lovely cooling feel.
3. Patch testDab a little on your inner elbow 24 hours before using a new powder on your face.
4. ApplySmooth evenly over clean skin, keeping clear of the eye area and lips. Leave a clay mask for 10-15 minutes, rinsing while it's still slightly soft.
5. RinseRinse the clay mask off with lukewarm water, pat dry with a soft towel, and follow with your favourite moisturiser.

FAQ

How do I make a face pack at home?

Put a teaspoon or two of your chosen powder in a small bowl and stir in water, rose water or yoghurt until it's smooth and spreadable. Smooth it over clean skin, avoiding your eyes, relax for 10-15 minutes, then rinse with lukewarm water. Multani Mitti makes a classic clay mask; Rose Petal makes a gentle, soothing pack. That's your first DIY face mask, ready in minutes.

Which clay mask is best for my skin type?

Oily, shine-prone skin loves our face mask powders, while our face mask for pimples pairs Neem and Tulsi for blemish-prone days. For a refined look, try our face mask powders for clogged pores; for soft, comfortable skin, use our Rose Petal face pack for dry skin.

Can I use turmeric powder for face masks?

Yes. For turmeric powder in face packs, we recommend Amba Haldi from our supplement range. Mix a small pinch with gram flour and yoghurt for a traditional homemade ubtan and a healthy-looking glow. A little turmeric powder for face goes a long way, as it stains skin and fabric, so rinse thoroughly. As with any new ingredient, patch test for 24 hours first.

What are the main benefits of multani mitti for skin?

Multani Mitti, or fuller's earth, is a soft, natural clay that absorbs excess oil and shine and lifts away dirt and impurities. It's a favourite clay powder for face masks on oily and combination skin, leaving it feeling fresh, clean and matte. Mix it with rose water for a cooling clay mask, or add Neem or Tulsi for a purifying Ayurvedic face pack.

Which face pack powder should I try first?

For a fresh, matte finish, start with Multani Mitti, the clay powder for face behind our classic clay mask. For softer, calmer skin, Rose Petal is a gentle face pack powder that suits most people. Mix a teaspoon with rose water, patch test for 24 hours first, then add a second herb once you know what your skin loves.

What's the difference between a face mask and a face pack?

Very little. 'Face mask' is more common in the UK, while 'face pack' is the traditional South Asian term for a fresh blend of powders mixed at home. Our powders make both. Call it a clay mask, an Ayurvedic face pack or a DIY face mask: the ritual and the result are the same.

Is a natural face powder suitable for sensitive skin?

Many people with sensitive skin love Gotu Kola and Rose Petal, our gentlest powders, mixed with aloe gel or rose water for a soft, soothing pack. If you love a clay mask, blend a little Multani Mitti with Rose Petal. Each natural face powder is a single herb with nothing added. Any new ingredient can surprise skin, so patch test on your inner elbow 24 hours before first use.
