| Hi Vatsi, That's a lot of quick easy tips using milk for complexion, thank you. I would lke to try for my dark dull complexion the chickpeas/milk paste but please can you tell me for how long this paste can be stored or do you need it to make the paste everyday. And if it can be store, then how do i store it - just the paste of chickpeas/milk without adding lime/haldi?. And is this tried personally - my skin is normal (not too dry / not too oily) Thanks Rita |
