Everyone wants clear, glowing skin, yet many people end up spending thousands on expensive face washes and skincare products. While these products often promise instant results, the chemicals in them can sometimes do more harm than good—especially for people with sensitive or oily skin, who may experience pimples, irritation, or dryness.

So the big question is:
Can you make a market-like face wash at home—cheap, chemical-free, and gentle on the skin?

The answer is yes. With just a few natural ingredients, you can prepare a simple homemade face wash for around ₹20 that cleanses the skin and helps improve its appearance over time.

Ingredients Needed (₹20 Budget)

You only need three easily available ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons aloe vera gel

• 1 tablespoon gram flour (besan)

• 1–2 teaspoons rose water

These ingredients are known to be skin-friendly:

• Aloe vera helps soothe and moisturize

• Gram flour gently cleanses and improves skin texture

• Rose water refreshes the skin and adds a mild fragrance

How to Make the Face Wash

1. Take a clean bowl.

2. Add aloe vera gel and whisk it well.

3. Slowly add sifted gram flour, mixing continuously to avoid lumps.

4. Add rose water and mix until you get a light gel-like consistency, similar to a face wash.

Your homemade face wash is ready to use.

How to Use It Correctly

1. Wet your face with lukewarm water.

2. Take a coin-sized amount of the face wash in your palms.

3. Gently massage it onto your face for 30–40 seconds.

4. Rinse with plain water and pat dry.

You can use it once or twice a day. With regular use, your skin may start to feel cleaner, fresher, and more balanced.

How to Store Homemade Face Wash

Since this face wash is natural and preservative-free, proper storage is important.

• Store it in a clean glass or plastic container

• Keep the lid tightly closed

• For use over 7–10 days, store it in the refrigerator

• Always use dry hands or a clean spoon

⚠️ If the smell, colour, or texture changes, stop using it immediately.
