can we apply multani mitti daily - #44145
I am really struggling with my skin lately. It’s been breaking out like crazy, and I heard that using multani mitti might help. I got super excited and started using it every other day. At first, it seemed to work wonders, my skin felt fresh and clean. But now I'm started to worry, is that too much? Can we apply multani mitti daily? I’ve read mixed things online. Some say it’s great for oily skin and can absorb excess oil, which I definitely need. But others kept saying it might be too harsh if used too often??? Yesterday I even noticed a bit of dryness after using it, which worried me... like am I doing more harm than good? I just want to get my skin back to a nice state. My friend suggested mixing it with rose water or something, but, honestly, I’m confused about what’s the best approach. Should I cut it down to twice a week? Or could it be that applying multani mitti daily is okay if I mix it right? I really wanna make sure I’m doing this right! Any advice would be super appreciated!

Using multani mitti, or fuller’s earth, on your face has its benefits, especially for oily and acne-prone skin, as it helps in absorbing excess oil, unclogging pores, and refreshing the skin. However, applying it daily might not be advisable for everyone. In Ayurveda, moderation is key, and understanding your prakriti (natural constitution) is essential. Multani mitti tends to have a cooling and drying effect, making it particularly suitable for those with pitta or kapha dominant skin types—prone to oil and acne breakouts.
If you’ve been noticing dryness, it’s an indication that you might be overdoing it. Overusing multani mitti can lead to stripping your skin of its natural oils, causing it to become dry and potentially more sensitive. Instead, applying it 2-3 times a week is generally a safer bet for most people. Adjust based on your skin’s response. Since you’ve observed some dryness, it’s important to pair multani mitti with ingredients that help maintain skin’s moisture. Mixing it with rose water, as your friend suggested, can help balance its drying nature. Rose water has soothing and hydrating properties, ideal for maintaining skin moisture. Alternatively, you can add honey or aloe vera gel to make the face pack more nourishing.
After removing the mask, follow with a light, non-comedogenic moisturizer suitable for your skin type, which will help prevent any dryness. Hydration is essential, so ensure you’re drinking plenty of water and perhaps incorporate hydrating, fresh fruits and vegetables into your diet to nourish your skin from within.
Keep in mind external treatments are just one aspect of managing skin health. Be attentive to lifestyle factors, such as stress, sleep, and diet, as they significantly contribute to skin conditions. If dryness or breakouts persist, or you’re unsure about your skin’s reaction, a consultation with an Ayurvedic practitioner or dermatologist can provide tailored advice, ensuring your skin care aligns with your unique needs.
