Hai madam I have pimples on my for head..can I use multani mitti with rose water on my face daily…. I want a good glowing skin…multani mitti is good for this?
Hi Sahas ,
yes you can try this .. it generally works depending on the reason behind your acne … if you have it only on forehead , it possibly can be due to dandruff or a dry scalp … oil your scalp and moisturize it well every day to keep the pimples on fore head away …
Hi sisy..am 21 yrs .I have unwanted hair on my cheeks.and my upper lip..some doctor sujusts me to take hormanal test…its result is normal..BT that in wanted hair feels uncomfortable… Wr evr I go even a small kids also asking me..tell me wat should I do for that..does multhani meti will help me?????:(
Hi Jessica ,
do this ..
take some besan , add little sarsoo oil , and turmeric and just a little milk to make a tight dough of it. apply it on your face let it dry for a min, the roll your hands on your cheeks in opp direction as per your hair growth , the fine hair will break from your skin surface and will come off , dont be very harsh …. do it with medium pressure every day before bathing , and slowly within a month your hair will naturally reduce .. this takes times but it is natural and will definitely give results if you try with patience … but make sure you do this on a regular basis …..
after washing face , apply multani mitti and rose water pack , this will instantly relax your skin surface.

Hi rabbia , if it is like super dry , then dont use multani mitti in this extremly dry and cold weather . rather use honey with lemon , or wash your face with milk and cream .
I have a red pimple in my face and I use multani milti – been powder+ lemon juice+ rose water but my pimple are go but again come why
they go because of your efforts and may be coming back because you are not treating the base / root cause of your problem . check your diet , too much oil needs to be avoided , check your scalp for dandruff.. if it is hormonal , check with a doctor.

venkat , you need tpoo find the reason behind pimples . if the pimple is hormone related , only doctors can help you , if i is pollution related then covering your face and washing it several times a day is more effective . if oily food is the reason , then you need to start eating helthy stuff and avoid all junck food . if it is dandruff related , than you need to fiest clear the scalp to get rid of pimples. if your pimples are because of oily skin , then multani mitti will definitely show results .
