MULTANI LUMPS
Multani Mitti Lumps
Multani Mitti (Fuller’s Earth) lumps are natural clay stones rich in minerals like magnesium, silica, calcium, and iron. When ground or soaked in water, they form a smooth paste that deeply cleanses the skin, absorbs excess oil, removes impurities, tightens pores, and gives a natural glow.
It is widely used for acne, oily skin, tanning, pigmentation, and scalp cleansing.
