Clay masks help
neutralize skin.
You can pick up
clay from any
health-food
store.
INGREDIENTS:
A basic fuller's
earth clay (if
skin is
sensitive,
French green
clay is a good
option)
1 tsp honey
water (for a richer mask, substitute half-and-half)
your favorite essential oil
PREPARATION:
I find it's best
to mix 2 parts
water (or half
and half) to 1
part clay,
mixing in a bit
of honey.
Add more water (or cream) if clay is too dry.
Add a few drops of the essential oil.
Keep mask on for 15 minutes.
Rinse off with a
steaming
washcloth (I
like to steam my
washcloths with
a couple drops
of the essential
oils in the
microwave, but
make sure
washcloth is not
too hot).
Tip: This
recipe works for
dry or normal
skin too. Add
another
tablespoon of
honey and add a
few drops of
essential oils
for your skin
type.
