"This DIY tip helps deep cleanse your skin at home, especially oily clogged skin. The lactic acid in the curd exfoliates gently without stripping skin or making it sensitive. Coffee decoction absorbs oil and immediately dries out the skin. Turmeric is an anti-inflammatory ingredient which reduces inflammation and desensitises the skin surface," the dermatologist mentions in the post.

Frequency: "Once in 3 weeks as a maintenance," Dr Chytra suggests.
