The powerful powdered milk DIY face mask

Hello darlings!

With the supermarket shelves being filled with tonnes of brands of ready to drink milk, we all probably forget at times, that powdered milk does exist! More interestingly, I'm also about to tell you that you can not only drink it, but...(dum dum dum) USE IT ON YOUR FACE (GASP!!). Yup, news flash - it is soo good for your skin. Remember flawless Cleopatra? She was specially known for her beautiful skin which as you can guess by now, was as a result of her milk baths. I dare you to try this and I promise you, you'll be sticking with this for a long time! (P.S: Perfect for a quick fix before a date.)


You'll need:
  • 2 tbsps powdered milk (instant)
  • 1 tbsp warm water
  • 1/2 tsp honey (optional)

Egyptian time:
  • Ensure your face is washed and dried clean. Clip your hair back because you DO NOT want milky sticky bangs!
  • In a small bowl, combine milk with water and and mix quickly. Add honey and check consistency - should be paste-like and smooth; if not, add more milk or water accordingly. Remember to mix out all the lumps.
  • Apply generously over face. 
  • However, if you're like me and always manage to have excess mixture, don't throw it away! Keep applying over and over until your bowl is empty. Layers will dry quickly and allow you to keep adding more on top of them.
  • Leave to dry for about 20-25 mins and then wash thoroughly. Pat dry.
  • You can do this about twice a week.

Beautiful glowing skin is only 25 mins away.

... Love and beauty, Virmala.
