Turmeric Face Mask

Posted on August 7, 2017April 22, 2019 by Indrani

Summer is in full swing and we have been spending plenty of time outside. How about you? I want to share a with you a yogurt-based face mask that we use in our family to keep our skin cool and bright. A key ingredient here is turmeric. Turmeric is trending in many health and wellness articles and for good reason. Its main active ingredient is curcumin, which has powerful anti-inflammatory effects and is a strong anti-oxidant.  The lemon juice adds a little vitamin C and will help brighten your skin.

I would recommend starting to use this face mask once a month and moving up to once per week.  Your skin should feel moist and have a slight glow after use.  Please try it out and let me know how it works for you!

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp. chickpea flour
  • 2 tsp. plain yogurt
  • 1/8 tsp. Turmeric
  • 1 tsp. water
  • Few drops of lemon juice

Directions:

  1. Combine all ingredients in a small bowl to create a paste.
  2. Apply a thin layer over face and neck. (Face should be clean of make-up or any other product before applying face mask).
  3. Let mask dry completely (about 10 minutes).
  4. Rinse face with warm water and pat dry.

monbool

Finding my way through the love of art, food, family, and friends.

What does monbool mean?  monbool is a word I made up.  Mon (pronounced mōn) was my mother’s childhood nickname and Bool was my father’s childhood nickname.  The passion I have for what I am doing came from them, so I have named this journey in their honor.

I am Indrani, a first generation Indian-American whose parents originally migrated from Kolkata, India.  My passion and inspiration for cooking developed from spending time in the kitchen and learning from my father who would cater for large gatherings.  My mother encouraged all forms of art, including drawing, dance and music.  Growing up with a strong, traditional Indian upbringing, my parents also encouraged participation in the American culture.  And now in my own mixed culture family, the fusion of Indian and American traditions is embraced by my husband and children.
