Multani Mitti and Ice Roller Guide for Oily Skin

Oily skin produces excess sebum, leading to a shiny complexion and enlarged pores. It is prone to acne, blackheads, and clogged pores. Managing oily skin means absorbing excess oil without overdrying. Multani Mitti is ideal for oily skin: it acts like a natural “sponge” to soak up oil and impurities.

Cosmetic dermatologist Dr. Jatin Mittal notes that “Multani mitti can be a boon for individuals with oily and acne-prone skin due to its high absorbent properties. It effectively soaks up excess oil, unclogs pores, and removes impurities, which can help prevent acne”​. This cooling clay also has an antiseptic effect. In practice, using a Multani Mitti mask regularly can balance oil production and give clearer skin​.

Multani Mitti Face Mask for Oily Skin

Follow these steps:

1. Prepare mixture: In a bowl, mix 2 tablespoons Florastra Herbal Multani Mitti with enough rosewater or plain water to form a paste. (Rosewater adds mild astringency but skip milk/yogurt, as they add oil.)
2. Cleanse: Wash your face with a gentle cleanser. Pat dry.
3. Apply mask: Spread the clay paste evenly on your face, focusing on the oily T-zone (forehead, nose, chin) where sebum tends to concentrate.
4. Let it dry: Keep the mask on for 10–15 minutes. You’ll feel the clay tightening as it dries. This is when the clay draws out sebum from pores.
5. Remove and rinse: Gently wash off with lukewarm water. You can use circular motions to exfoliate lightly. Follow up with a lightweight moisturizer.

The result is less oil and fewer breakouts. A Healthline-cited study confirms that Multani Mitti “removes dirt and absorbs excess oil” from skin. Use this mask 2–3 times per week for oily skin. You will see reduced shine and smaller-looking pores in about 1–2 weeks.

Multani Mitti Hair Mask for Oily Scalp

An oily scalp can lead to limp hair and dandruff. To clarify the scalp, use a Multani Mitti mask:

• Mix 4 tablespoons of Multani Mitti with water and a few drops of tea tree oil (antibacterial).
• Apply to scalp and hair roots.
• Leave on 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.

This mask will absorb extra oil from your scalp. With regular weekly use, it can reduce dandruff and leave hair feeling clean longer.

Ice Roller Routine for Oily Skin

An ice roller can help shrink open pores and reduce puffiness after a clay mask. Here’s how:

• After mask: Once you wash off the Multani Mitti mask, gently pat your face dry.
• Chill: Use a chilled ice roller. You can also make ice cubes with green tea (cooling) or water and cucumber juice.
• Massage: Roll the ice roller in upward strokes across your face, focusing on the T-zone and cheeks for 5–7 minutes.
• Pat dry: When done, your skin will feel refreshed and pores will appear tighter.

Skin icing can also soothe any redness post-mask. According to Vogue, the cold from ice rollers “can help increase blood circulation, minimize pores, and soothe inflammation”​. Limit icing to 5–10 minutes and always keep the roller moving to avoid ice burn.

Expected Results and Timeline

With consistent use:

• 1 Week: Noticeably less oily sheen. The mask unclogs pores and reduces impurities. Skin feels cleaner​.
• 2 Weeks: Pores appear smaller and breakouts are fewer. Dr. Kapoor called Multani Mitti a “magic anti-acne worker” due to magnesium chloride​.
• 1 Month: Oily skin becomes balanced. Scarring from past acne may start to fade thanks to regular exfoliation.

Always finish with a light, oil-free moisturizer. For best results, complete your routine with sunscreen (oily or gel formulas) during the day. The combined Multani Mitti mask and ice roller routine will revitalize oily skin.

Best Practices and Tips

• Combos: Omit heavy creams. Use rose water or lemon juice with the clay for extra oil control (lemon adds Vitamin C for brightening). A teaspoon of fuller’s earth plus a few drops of neem oil can boost acne-fighting power.
• Frequency: Start with 2 times per week. If skin tolerates, go up to 3 times. Avoid daily use.
• Patch test: Try the mask on a small area first, especially if you have active acne.
• Moisturize: Use a non-comedogenic gel or lotion after the mask. Aloe vera gel is great.
• Monitor changes: If skin becomes too dry, reduce frequency or add a bit of honey to your mask.

Using Florastra Herbal’s pure Multani Mitti ensures you get these oil-control benefits without added chemicals. Say goodbye to shiny skin naturally and hello to a clearer, matte complexion​.
