It also helps smoothen the skin for those who have skin allergies - it is recommended especially to those who suffer from recurring skin allergies.

Besan with rose water is a wonder potion for people with normal skin. Mix besan with lemon juice and multani mitti if you have oily or acne prone skin.

Besan can be used as a simple home remedy for removing those hard-to-get-rid-off blackheads. Just mix besan with lime juice and gently scrub the area of your nose that is prone to blackheads.
For mature skin, besan mixed with kacha doodh (raw milk) and walnut powder is a powerful face pack.

Besan or gram flour is also great for cleaning up areas such elbows and knees. There could also be some dead skin collected in and around the hip area which can make them rough and dry. Use a mix of besan and lemon juice here every day before taking a bath. You could add a few teaspoons of kacha doodh too. Try this on a daily basis and you will see visible results.

Children, up to the age of 5 years, loose almost 400 milligrams of skin on a daily basis. However, with age we often ignore the importance of exfoliating our skin on a regular basis. Shedding of the superficial dead skin layers is crucial for a healthy looking skin; not doing so could lead to the skin looking dull and gloomy. This is where besan can work its charm. Follow these simple home remedies till the skin has a better glow. Gradually move to doing these once a week.


Do note:

 These home remedies should only be done if you don't have any skin allergies. If you do, then you must visit a Dermatologist for a long-term cure. Lastly, all these home remedies are safe and can never cause any kind of allergies if used in correct ways.
