It has been an Indian tradition since centuries to use uptan to nourish skin. Ayur Herbal puts together all the essential naturally rich products and created an uptan which increases the softness and suppleness of the face.
Take two tea spoonfuls of uptan and make a paste mixed with milk or "Ayur" rose water. Apply a thick layer of this uptan on the face and let it remain for 20 minutes. When dry rub it off the face.
Continuous use of this uptan not only makes you beautiful but also helps in removing superfluous hair from the face and body.
My Skin Type: Dry on the cheeks, but can get oily around the nose, chin, and forehead.
Product Description: Just a beige-colored powder. When mixed with milk however, purple beads start showing up, and they seemed to act as an exfoliater. Has a very distinctive herbal smell, but it doesn't cling on to the skin.
Results: I tried it once, and it was amazing! My skin did indeed feel softer, and it was moisturized in all the right places in just the right way. I wasn't sure if it was just my imagination or not, but my skin also seemed paler with a healthier glow. My pores were also significantly reduced - though that effect was only temporary, because by the end of the day, they were back to normal. Still, it was great.
What I Did:
I tried to follow the instructions as specifically as I could, seeing as this was truly an exotic product, but since they didn't specify the amount of milk, I think I put in too much. The "paste" was rather thin and runny, just like water with chunks of occasional mud in it, and I ended up dabbing it on my face rather than smearing. Even still, it worked amazingly well, and the thin paste dried up quickly and tightly anyway.
Several tips to avoid my mistakes:
1). Get your hair out of your face! I accidentally rubbed it into a few pieces of front hair, and they ended up drying uncomfortably. It's not damaging if you wash it off, but it will feel funny.
2). Do not dab/rub/smear around your eyes. It's going to be like a scrub, and you don't want to get chunks in your eyes!
3). When you rub it off, don't use water - it will be harder to get off that way. Just rub as well as you can at first, and then if you really can't get certain areas off, wash over them. Then wash over your entire face to make sure no more bits of the facial mask are remaining.
According to the package, if you use this product often, your skin will get much better - in that case, I'm going to keep using it and see what happens!
i use it on my arms as well. it feels great.
