5. Mix them thoroughly and apply on your face and hands with the help of the brush.
6. Apply it for minimum 12-15 minutes.
7. You can wash it off with normal water, but I personally scrub gently with wet hands and then wash my face.

      Benefits:

•   Licorice powder is good for sensitive skin.
•  It helps to remove discoloration.
•  It helps to improve complexion.

Points to be Noted: if you have a sensitive skin or have any doubt please do a patch test before applying.
Turmeric is my all-time favorite but if you want then you can skip it but it works wonders for skin lightening.

6. For better results, apply this every night before sleep. 

Points to be Noted: As my skin is not at all sensitive if you have a sensitive skin or have any doubt please do a patch test before applying as lemon can irritate the sensitive skin and do not apply on wounds or cuts.

You can skip honey if you want but it has antibacterial property as well as it gives a soothing effect to your skin.

Curdle milk will clean your skin deeply and your dry skin will become super soft.
