To tackle facial hair naturally with turmeric, you can create a simple paste to apply. Turmeric is known in Ayurveda for its purifying properties and ability to inhibit hair growth over time. Mix turmeric with gram flour (besan) and milk or yogurt to form a paste. Here’s a straightforward approach:
Combine about 1-2 teaspoons of turmeric powder with 2 tablespoons of gram flour (helps to stick and remove the hair) and enough milk or yogurt to form a smooth paste. Apply this to the areas with unwanted facial hair. Let it sit until it dries completely—about 20-30 minutes.
Once dried, gently scrub the paste off with your fingers or a soft fabric, moving against the direction of hair growth. This scrubbing can help in removing fine hair. Rinse the area with lukewarm water after.
It’s important to note that consistent use is key. You might consider doing this treatment 2-3 times a week. However, results may vary based on individual hair type and growth cycle, so patience is necessary.
Since your skin is sensitive, do a patch test on a small area of skin before the first full application to observe any adverse reaction or irritation. If your skin feels too weird, it’s possible you might have used too much turmeric or perhaps its the mixture with chosen liquid. Adjust the quantity accordingly to see which works best or reduce its strength by adding more of the gram flour or yogurt.
Also, ensure you’re using pure turmeric meant for skin application, as culinary turmeric may have additives. If irritation persists, it might be wise to consult with a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues that might be contributing to hair growth or skin sensitivity.
