Here I’am posting my very first post in the Steemit Women's Club community. Today I will be sharing a 100% natural face mask which I have been using for years. This mask did not do any harm to my skin, It’s completely pure and mild to skin. I always have these ingredients ready at home and I prefer using ayurvedic facial masks on my skin. Rather than using chemical products and spending lots of money, This is the best way to show some love to your skin.

As I have always said self love is really important, I always keep some time for myself in my daily routine. Whenever I get a little tired, I look exhausted easily. So this is my secret to look fresh and to keep my skin healthy. And I have dark circles around my eyes which is very hard to get rid of. I use the ingredients to treat my dark circles too.

I use this facial mask more often, whenever I feel like pampering my skin I do facials at home. I enjoy doing it all by myself!

After cleansing my skin well, I use a natural ingredient (tomato, milk or honey) to exfoliate my skin then I start applying my Aloe Vera face mask.

Let's check the ingredients used in my Aloe face mask.

• 1 Small piece of Aloe vera
• 1 Vitamin E Capsule
• Sandalwood Powder
• Besan Powder

Why I used these Ingredients?

Aloe Vera

I have tried using aloe gel on my skin in different ways and it did not do any harm. I have combination skin and it worked well on my skin. I use aloe gel to keep my skin moisturised, smooth and soft. It has antioxidant properties and helps me to fade sun burns. Especially in the winter season we need to hydrate our skin more so aloe gel is one of the best ingredients which we can add in our daily face mask.

Whenever I don't find enough time, I apply aloe gel raw on my face to get rid of the dead and that's the easiest and less time consuming mask which anyone can use. I like it's cooling effect and it really feels good for my skin.

Vitamin E Capsule

I have read in many beauty related articles that Vitamin E can be used to treat dark circles. So I have added the ingredient on my daily face mask. It also helps me to keep my skin moisturized and lighten up my skin tone.

Sandalwood Powder

I have been using this ingredient for years, I love using sandalwood powder in all my face masks. It also helps me to remove sun tan and it is a natural exfoliator. It has antibacterial properties which helps me to keep my skin clean and keep acne away.

Besan Powder

This is an essential ingredient for me. I use besan powder in all my face masks and daily skin care routine. I use besan powder as a natural face wash. It really helps to enhance my skin tone and to keep it fresh and glowing. It really does wonders on my skin. It also helps to reduce my dark circles and all other dark spots.
