Skincare tips: Homemade face mask for dry skin

Celebrity dermatologist, Dr. Chytra has a DIY solution with only 4 homely ingredients to soothe dry and sensitive skin. In an Instagram Reels, she shares with us an amazing hack for calming down our skin in case of dryness and sensitivity and providing it with moisture and nourishment.



All 4 ingredients — honey, avocado, milk, and oats — are easily available in Indian kitchens. Her advice? Take a bowl. In that add one tablespoon of honey, half avocado or ripe butter fruit, one tablespoon of milk, and one tablespoon of oats. Mix it all together and let the blend rest for 15 minutes to soak through. Apply to clean face and leave it on for 10 minutes. After that wash it off.

The benefits of Dr. Chytra's DIY mask are many. In her caption, she mentions how honey draws moisture into skin and hydrates it. Butter fruit softens the skin while nourishing it deeply with rich Vitamin E and fatty acids. Lactic acid from milk reduces inflammation, and oats contain anti-inflammatory and moisturising properties that soothe skin irritation. If you can't find butter fruit, don't worry, Dr. Chytra recommends avocado oil as an alternative.
