Gram flour has a lightening effect on the skin. So if you want to get rid of stubborn tan, apply besan on your skin. Moreover, besan also has an antiseptic effect on the skin. So if you are prone to acne, then too you can try the face mask recipes.

* Curd : When the heat is up, cool your skin by applying this facemask. Curd has cooling properties that is essential for facial skin care.

Then add a spoonful of besan and beat it until the mixture is uniform. Then apply it on your face and leave it for ten minutes. Egg whites soak the excess oils from the pores so that you don't end up looking like a frying pan.

* Milk : Use about a half a cup of milk to make a thick paste out of besan powder. You can add a spoonful of honey to this mixture to make it sticky. This face mask recipe gives you more than fairness. Its the milk and the honey that hydrates your skin from within. This is the perfect face mask for winters because it leaves your skin supple.

* Lemon & Almonds: This face mask recipe combines the skin lightening properties of besan with the antioxidants and vitamin E in lemon and almonds respectively. Soak the almonds overnight and without peeling, grind them. Now add lemon juice and a spoonful of besan to it. Due to its grainy texture, this can be a very good facial scrub. Apart from lightening your complexion, besan clears your skin by lightening the dark spots.
