Ultimate DIY Detan scrub for acne-prone skin[self-tested]

AND the wait is finally over!! After a looooong time, I am now here with my ultimate Detan-scrub which is self-tested and validated. YES!! It’s a scrub AND a de-tan that would work its wonder on the first application itself! I experimented with this recipe a few months before my wedding, and it quickly became my go-to favourite. It was my top choice whenever we were to meet my in-laws or I had a date with my fiancé, it just gave me an instant long lasting glow, AND, it just needs 10 mins to cast its spell! All-in-all, it is an easy, workable and fast solution to tackle your tan, dead skin cells and pigmentation. Is it the best thing for a girl like me with textured skin?!

Before I jump into the recipe, let me tell you about my skin type because, obviously, every skincare product works differently on different skin types. I have acne-prone, sensitive skin. I also face hormonal acne sometimes(you can identify your acne type here).

Too much of the talk now. Let’s dive into the RECIPEEEEEE!!!

Ingredients

1. Chickpea flour(Besan)- ½  tablespoon
2. Turmeric(Haldi)- 1 pinch
3. Coffee- ¼ tablespoon
4. Dried orange peel powder- ¼ tablespoon (Optional; You can just dry the orange peels in sun for few days and then grind them to make powder)
5. Curd- ¾ tablespoon(depends on the consistency you want)

Procedure

Mix the above mentioned ingredients in one circular direction(either clockwise or anti-clockwise) so that all the ingredients get blended smoothly and consistently. Apply the mixture on your dry, cleansed face using a brush or your finger. Be very gentle with the application as it has scrubbing content and rubbing rigorously can damage your epidermis temporarily and can cause irritation. Keep this diy scrub on your face for around 20 mins or till it dries(whatever suits you). Now, Moisten the contents on your face with either plain water or rose water. Since your skin is moist and has become susceptible to little pressure and light scrubbing, gently massage in circular motion and scrub your face for a minute. Then just clean your face with plain water. And, don’t forget to moisturise afterwards. No matter what your skin type is, moisturising is necessary!(I know that now 🥲. I’m thinking about writing why moisturizer is important for oily skin as well. You can comment down “why moisturiser?” if that interests you!)

Give this ultimate detan-scrub a try and let me know what you guys think about it!
