Multani mitti and rose water pack for oily skin

Fuller's earth (multani mitti) soaks up excess oil and has a cooling effect, which makes it a favourite summer face pack for oily, pitta-type skin.

Illustrated still life with rose water, honey, rose petals.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon multani mitti
  • 1–2 tablespoons rose water
  • A few drops of fresh aloe gel or honey (optional, for softness)

How to prepare

  1. Mix the multani mitti with rose water to a smooth paste.
  2. Add aloe gel or honey if your skin feels tight after clay packs.

How to use

  • Apply to a clean face, avoiding the eyes and lips.
  • Rinse off with cool water after 10 minutes — before it dries and cracks completely.
  • Use once a week; follow with a light moisturiser.

Precautions

  • Not ideal for very dry or sensitive skin, which it can dry out further.
  • Patch test first and stop if you notice redness or itching.
