Want to look your absolute best this festive season? This facemask will transform your visage in a mere 10 minutes, all thanks to an Ayurvedic concoction of ingredients that will leave your skin deeply hydrated and rejuvenated. The best part: It's free from long chemical names that are hard to pronounce.
