Secret to glowing skin? 7-ingredient Ubtan recipe
Haven’t we all heard our grandmas talk about how generously they used ubtan back then? In today’s time, where we find all face masks with chemicals, homemade ubtan is a natural beauty paste made from herbal powders like gram flour, lentils, and herbs.
Ubtan was and still is regarded as one of the most sacred herbal beauty skincare products with healing properties, prepared by mixing lentils and milk. It can act as a natural body exfoliator and helps in de-tanning and reducing body odour. Just make a paste by adding milk or rose water. Ubtan also acts as a natural cleanser, removing dirt, oil, and impurities from the skin’s surface. It’s a gentle way to cleanse without over-stripping the skin’s natural oils.

Benefits of using Ubtan on face
Ubtan contains natural exfoliating agents like ground lentils, chickpea flour, and multani mitti. Gram flour calms redness, and swelling, and prevents and reduces acne scars, leaving you with smooth, clear skin. Multani mitti tightens pores and reduces inflammation.
These ingredients help to gently remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and promote a smooth complexion. Regular use can help even out skin tone, reduce pigmentation, and enhance the skin’s natural radiance. This luxurious ubtan will leave your skin feeling cleansed, soft, and supple.
