Without a doubt, India’s most popular season has to be the aam season. Mango shakes, aam panna, pappad, and mango pickle, there are so many ways to enjoy the delicious taste of this fruit.
In the skincare world too, mango is quite the king as it’s loaded with Vitamins A and C. It helps with skin radiance, protects it from sun damage, and has amazing anti-ageing properties. So, if you have some extra mangoes lying around the house, make it into a pulp and apply it to your face.
Today, we’re sharing some awesome ways you can use mango in your DIY skincare routine.
