  • This lightening and brightening face mask is most effective when used in the evening, as exfoliation should ideally be done without the risk of sun exposure to prevent any potential skin sensitivity or damage. Portion out a quarter-sized amount into the palm of your hand and mix it thoroughly with your liquid of choice. We recommend using warm water, apple cider vinegar, or a citrus juice such as lemon or orange for enhanced lightening effects. Once the mixture is fully hydrated, gently apply it to your face using soft circular motions to promote even coverage. Leave the mask on for approximately 20 minutes to allow the ingredients to work deeply. Afterward, gently rinse it off with tepid water and follow up with your preferred serum to lock in moisture and nutrients. Please note that due to the turmeric in the mask, a temporary yellow tint may appear on the skin, but this discoloration will naturally fade within an hour or so.
