Used for hair removal: Masoor dal face pack helps lighten your skin and get rid of fine facial hair. Orange peel in this pack gives you a glowing complexion.

Apply a layer of this paste to your face. Keep the face for 15-20 minutes and let it dry. Scrub off the dried layer gently in circular motions. Use olive oil to scrub this off. Wash off with cold water.
Hydrates the skin: Moisturising properties of masoor dal and honey can help to keep the skin hydrated. Mix masoor dal powder with honey and leave it on for 15 minutes. Wash it thoroughly with lukewarm water.
