Kriti Sanon can do both — expensive, high-end skincare as well as economical, easily whipped-up DIYs. While one of Sanon’s serums boasts a whopping price of INR 13,0000, her radiance isn’t just courtesy of this product. Because the actor’s DIYs also do much of the magic that you see on-screen.
It’s something that you miss when you’re away from home — something your mother always cooked once a week. Dal is the secret behind Kriti’s glow, and you ought to know why and how.
All About Kriti Sanon’s DIY
Kriti simply blends besan, lentils (masoor), turmeric, and cream/malai together to create a thick, runny paste. All you have to do is spread it evenly over your face for a couple of minutes until it is dry before rinsing it off. The payoff for this mask is a smooth, glowy complexion thanks to its inclusion of dal. You must know what it can do for the skin.
Here’s What Masoor Dal Can Do For The Skin
It contains vitamins, minerals, and nutrients like Iron, Protein, Calcium, Zinc, Magnesium, vitamins C, B6, B2, and Folic Acid, it cleanses the skin thoroughly, eliminating dirt and oil build-up naturally. Masoor exfoliates the skin to reveal newer, healthier cells underneath, making your skin look youthful and radiant in seconds. Exfoliated, cleansed skin means that you’re finally rid of those random bouts of acne.
Another reason why it’s sought after is because it can lighten and brighten the skin. This means that it counters pigmentation, scars, and discolouration pretty effectively. It actively promotes the appearance of an even-toned complexion. This is thanks to Vitamin C as well as Vitamin B. Vitamin B boosts the production of R.B.Cs; which allows more oxygen to be supplied to your cells. The more oxygen, the more your skin glows.
Masoor can even help retain your skin’s moisture; ensuring that it is well-hydrated and nourished at all times. Not just that, because of all the antioxidants present in the dal, it can reduce the visibility of lines, wrinkles, and other signs of ageing.
I know I’m trying this out before investing in a serum.
