VITMINVEDA 
Ubtan Face Pack: The Weekly Ritual Your Skin Needs for Deep Exfoliation and Inner Glow
Key Benefits
- Deep Exfoliation - Besan micro-grains physically exfoliate the dead skin layer during removal, revealing fresher, brighter cells beneath.
- Pore Purification - Multani mitti clay absorbs and removes deep sebum from pores - reducing blackheads, whitehead formation, and enlarged pore appearance.
- Traditional Brightening - Turmeric, saffron, and sandalwood deliver the accumulated brightening effect of the classical Ubtan ritual in one weekly treatment.
- Anti-Inflammatory Deep Treatment - Extended contact time (15 minutes) allows turmeric and sandalwood actives to provide more thorough anti-inflammatory action than daily products.
- Instant Glow Effect - Immediately after use, skin has a radiant, just-exfoliated glow that is visible and tangible - making this ideal before events.
- Oil Balance Reset - Weekly use maintains oil-balance reset, preventing the buildup of sebum that leads to congestion and shine throughout the week.
Why One Deep Treatment a Week Is Non-Negotiable for Glowing Skin
Daily face washes cleanse the surface. Daily moisturisers nourish. But true skin transformation - the kind where someone asks "What are you doing differently, your skin looks amazing?" - requires a weekly deep treatment: something that exfoliates at a level daily cleansing cannot reach, delivers a concentrated hit of brightening actives, and purifies pores more thoroughly than any cleanser. This is the role of the traditional face pack in Indian skincare, and VITMINVEDA's Ubtan Face Pack Scrub Mask is its finest modern expression.
Double Action: Exfoliation and Mask in One Product
The VITMINVEDA Ubtan Face Pack works in two stages. During the 5-10 minute application as a mask, the concentrated botanical actives - turmeric, sandalwood, multani mitti, and rose - penetrate the skin and address pigmentation, oil excess, and inflammation. As the pack is removed by gently massaging with wet fingertips, the besan (chickpea flour) and grain texture act as a physical scrub, lifting and removing the dead skin layer simultaneously. The result is both a treatment mask and a scrub - a dual-function product that delivers what typically requires two separate products.
Multani Mitti: The Clay That Transforms Oily, Congested Skin
Fuller's Earth (multani mitti) is a magnesium-rich clay with extraordinary oil-absorbing properties. Applied to the skin as part of a face pack, it draws excess sebum from pores by capillary action - removing the material that causes congestion, blackheads, and shine. Unlike commercial clay masks that use kaolin alone, multani mitti's higher absorbency and mineral content provides a more thorough cleanse, leaving pores visibly smaller after use.
Star Ingredients & Their Skin Science
Multani Mitti (Fuller's Earth)
Magnesium silicate clay with exceptional oil-absorbing properties. Removes excess sebum from pores by capillary action. Also contains minerals that gently stimulate circulation and impart a flushed, healthy glow after removal.
Turmeric (Curcuma longa)
At the higher concentrations possible in a weekly treatment mask (vs a daily cleanser), turmeric delivers more concentrated anti-inflammatory and melanin-inhibiting action. Extended contact time significantly enhances efficacy.
Sandalwood Powder (Santalum album)
Both the micro-particle texture (contributing to physical exfoliation during removal) and the alpha-santalol content (anti-inflammatory, brightening) make sandalwood an ideal addition to a scrub-mask formula.
Rose Water (Rosa damascena)
Acts as both the liquid base for the paste and an active ingredient - rose's astringent tannins tighten pores while flavonoids soothe skin. The scent creates an immersive, sensory ritual experience.
How to Use VITMINVEDA Ubtan Face Pack Scrub Mask
- Mix the required amount with rose water, plain yoghurt, or raw honey to form a smooth paste (each base provides different additional benefits - yoghurt for lactic acid exfoliation, honey for antimicrobial action).
- Cleanse face first with VITMINVEDA Ubtan Foaming Face Wash to remove surface impurities before the deep treatment.
- Apply the paste evenly to face, avoiding the eye area. Can extend to the neck.
- Leave on for 10-20 minutes - you will feel a mild tightening sensation as the clay sets.
- Before rinsing, add a few drops of water and gently massage in circular motions for 1-2 minutes - this activates the scrub exfoliation phase.
- Rinse thoroughly with cool water until all residue is removed.
- Immediately apply the VITMINVEDA Ubtan Face Cream or Vitamin C Face Cream - skin is maximally receptive to active ingredients immediately post-exfoliation.
What Results to Expect
First 3-7 Days: The exfoliation and clay treatment leave skin with an unmistakable smooth, radiant quality immediately after use. Pores appear visibly smaller. This single-use effect is immediately noticeable and is why face packs have been used before events for millennia.
Weeks 2-4: Weekly use establishes a new baseline for skin quality. The cyclical exfoliation prevents the dead cell buildup that causes dullness. Pore congestion is significantly reduced. Skin tone is measurably more even.
Week 6 & Beyond: The cumulative effect of 12+ weekly treatments is transformative - skin that looks consistently bright, has tighter pores, fewer breakouts, and a luminosity that is maintained between treatments. The difference from those who skip weekly exfoliation is clearly visible.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I use the Ubtan Face Pack?
Once a week is the standard recommendation. Those with oily, congested skin may benefit from twice weekly. Those with dry or sensitive skin should stick to once a week or once a fortnight. Never use more than twice weekly as over-exfoliation damages the skin barrier.
Can I customise the mixing liquid?
Yes - this is one of the beauties of the Ubtan tradition. Rose water for balancing and aromatherapy. Yoghurt for lactic acid exfoliation (ideal for brightening). Raw honey for antibacterial action (ideal for acne-prone). Milk for gentle lactic exfoliation. Cold milk for cooling effect. Each gives a slightly different experience and result.
Is the Ubtan Face Pack suitable before a wedding or event?
It's the perfect pre-event treatment. Use 2-3 times in the week leading up to the event, ending the evening before. The cumulative exfoliation and brightening produces the "bridal glow" that is the traditional purpose of Ubtan. Always do a patch test first if using a new product before an event.
