Preparing Facials

Most clay facials can contain many ingredients, but you can make a homemade facial with only two ingredients:

Fresh Water

Place 1 Tablespoon clay to a cup.  Add one drop of water at a time until it forms a thick paste.

Options:  Instead of water, you can use drops of carrier oil such as almond, argon, avocado, sunflower for a more moisturizing facial.  You can also use an herbal tea instead of water. Simply brew a cup of tea and use the finished tea instead of water. You can also honey. If you want a fresh scent, you can also use a drop of essential oil too.

Apply to face with a brush or fingers, keeping clear of lips and eyes.  You may apply to neck, shoulders, and other parts of the body such as shoulders.

It goes on dark and dries light.  Leave on 15 minutes, or until dry.  Rinse off with warm water, followed by a cool splash.  In the shower is a great place to remove the clay. Pat dry with a soft towel.  Don’t use a washcloth to remove the facial mask, because it will stain.  I found out the hard way.

Hint:  Don’t forget the cucumber on each eye. Make it a facial party with your favorite friends or spouse. Be creative!

Use Weekly

Follow up with coconut oil or your favorite oil.

Caution: It is best to do an allergy test to a small area such as the inside of the arm first. Do not use the mask if any adverse reaction occurs.
