Summers can cause hyperpigmentation and skin to breakout, said guest Hakeem Shah Nazir. A good diet in the summer can prevent these issues but even over the skin remedies can do wonders.

Nazir also shared a face mask recipe that will help your skin glow while also reducing pigmentation:

A teaspoon of Husne-e-Yousuf, A teaspoon of Multani mitti A teaspoon of samandri jhaag powder Rose water to mix

Mix ingredients together and make a thick paste

Apply for 10 to 15 minutes on the skin and rinse.

This mask has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties that help reduce acne and excessive oil from the skin’s open pores.

However, if you have dry and dull skin, the sandalwood mask will work for you.

Take a teaspoon each of sandalwood powder, pomegranate seed powder, neem seed powder, three teaspoons of ubtan Rosewater for mixing

Make a paste, adding as much rosewater as you need

Apply on the face for 10 to 15 minutes and rinse.

This mask will not only help clean the skin but the soothing properties of sandalwood and anti-inflammatory neem will help cure irritated dry skin and retain its moisture.

If you are looking for a way to beat the heat while you also take care of your skin, Nazir shared a recipe for a drink.

A tablespoon of dried barberries (zarshak Shireen, a raisin-like fruit) Three dried apricots

Soak both ingredients in water overnight

Blend them together in the morning, and filter

Drink in the morning with or right before breakfast.

The drink is rich in multivitamins and minerals that keep you hydrated all day.
