what is the benefits of multani mitti - #37836
I am really confused about what is the benefits of multani mitti. I started using it a few weeks ago because I read online it's great for skin issues, especially with acne. My skin has been breaking out like crazy, and I thought this would be a good natural remedy. Now I’m just not sure if it’s really helping or if I'm wasting my time! I got this greenish-brown clay and mixed it with some rosewater like I saw in a video, but sometimes I feel like it's drying my skin out too much. Like, is that a side effect or what? I thought it was supposed to help with oiliness, which it kinda does, but on days when I overdo it, I notice some redness afterward. Not sure if I’m doing this right! Also, I hear different things about how often to use it. Some say it’s fine to use daily, while others recommend a few times a week max. What is the benefits of multani mitti, really? Does it actually improve complexion or should I consider mixing in other ingredients? I am open to suggestions or personal experiences about this because I'm feeling kinda lost here. Would really appreciate any advice!

Multani Mitti, also known as Fuller’s Earth, is a staple in Ayurvedic beauty practices, especially beneficial for Pitta-type skin issues, where excess heat or oiliness tends to manifest in the form of acne or inflammation. Its cooling, absorbing qualities make it great for drawing out excess oil and impurities from the skin. However, your experience of dryness and redness suggests a potential imbalance, maybe overuse or incorrect combination with other elements.
Generally, Multani Mitti is quite effective for improving skin texture, reducing blemishes, and calming acne because it absorbs excess sebum. If your skin is breaking out, this clay can suck up the oil that often causes acne. It can also help tone the skin and improve blood circulation. However, if you are noticing excessive dryness or redness, it would be wise to moderate the usage. Using Multani Mitti more than necessary can indeed strip essential oils, leading to dryness.
It’s generally advisable to use Multani Mitti 2 to 3 times a week, depending on your skin type and condition, not daily as it could exacerbates dryness. Consider mixing it with ingredients less likely to dry your skin out too much, like honey or aloe vera, which can provide hydration. Rosewater is a good choice, but its astringent properties could contribute to dryness, so maybe reduce the quantity or frequency.
In your case, it’s best to assess your skin type. If your skin feels tight after application, you might have sensitive or combination skin rather than very oily skin. Adjust mixture ratios, and maybe integrate soothing herbs like neem or turmeric paste known for their anti-inflammatory properties. Monitor your skin’s reaction, and keep hydrated. If irritation persists, pause and consult with a skincare specialist. This natural remedy works best when tailored to your skin’s needs and conditions.
