How do i use a multani mitti face pack?

Readymade masks can be applied directly, but if you're buying multani mitti in a powdered form, add a few drops of water till it turns to paste and massage it onto your cheeks and T-zone area. The next step is where you should exercise caution, whether your skin is sensitive, oily or dry— don't let the mask harden entirely, as this will throw your moisture levels out of whack, leaving your skin dehydrated. When the mask is semi-hard is the best time to wash it off. Using it a few times will familiarise you with how the ingredient really works, so you can decide an optimal leave-on time for yourself.

• Dry AND oily skin types shouldn't leave multani mitti face packs on for too long. This prevents over-drying, which is bad for any skin type. Yup, oily skin, too: since sebum-secreting glands overcompensate by producing more oil when stripped of moisture 
• Sensitive skin types should incorporate multani mitti face packs in their regimen slowly, starting with little product and then increasing the quantity, so your skin has time to acclimate to the new ingredient
• Using face packs 1-2 times a week is ideal
