Quotes by Bharat B. Aggarwal (?)

“This formula, which should last for several uses, feels as fresh and clean as a spa facial—at a fraction of the cost! ½ cup garbanzo (chickpea) flour 1½ tablespoons turmeric Odorless cooking oil Water Mix the flour and turmeric in a container with a tight fitting lid. Keep it in a dry place in or near the bathroom. To make the mask, mix about 1 tablespoon of the flour mixture in a small dish with about 5 drops of oil. Add enough water to make a paste. It should be the consistency of cake batter.”
