Chickpea Flour: The Best Face wash

Chickpea flour: The Best Cleanser

We all love eating pakoras. Did you know that the ingredient chickpea flour that we use to make pakoras is a magical ingredient for your skin?

Skincare is essential for both men & women. It is done to ensure that you look fresh, neat, tidy & up for work. The first step of a skincare routine is cleansing for which we use face wash or any other cleanser. Believe me, I have used an uncountable number of face washes from the market but not found anyone so effective as this simple ingredient chickpea flour or gram flour which in India is also known as Besan.

The problem with these market face washes is that they contain a lot of chemicals that are not good for your skin. Though there are face washes which are natural and free from chemicals, they are quite expensive & the results are not that effective.

The normal market face wash would cleanse your face off the dust & impurities but believe me it wouldn’t give that glow on your skin. Most of the time they also tend to strip off the natural moisture of the skin.

Chickpea flour is a unique natural ingredient that performs the cleansing action in the best way. It scrubs your skin gently taking off the dead skin and along with it clears your pores and also removes the dust & pollution from the day. The best part of using chickpea flour is that it leaves a very nice glow on your skin after washing it off. It doesn’t make your skin feel dry or oily and greasy as happens after using crème cleansers.

How to use Chickpea as a face wash?

It’s simple. All you have to do is take one spoonful of chickpea flour in your hand and mix a little bit of water or rose water and mix it to form a paste-like consistency.

Next, you massage your face gently with the paste. You can message about 1-2 minutes and then rinse it off with water and then pat dry. Follow up with toner & moisturizer.

Who can use this face wash?

This face wash is suitable for all skin types.

Can we use this face wash daily?

Yes, you can certainly use this face wash twice daily.

DIY homemade facial:

Chickpea flour can be used for a quick DIY home facial. All you have to do is take some chickpea flour in a bowl and add some turmeric powder to it. Then mix some water to make a nice paste.
