Ingredients:
• 2 tsp cosmetic grade clay: White Kaolin is easily available online and in pharmacies.
• 1 tsp coffee grounds (you can totally recycle recently brewed coffee grounds
• 1 to 1 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar: According to your skin type or sensitivity you can dilute or substitute with Rose Water/distilled water
• 2 – 3 drops Tea Tree Oil (optional) or your favourite essential oil
Instructions:
Use a plastic or wood spoon to mix ingredients. This will prevent the active clay from drawing metals beforehand, thus maintaining its full absorbency.
In a small glass or plastic bowl, mix dry ingredients until well blended.
Add apple cider vinegar and essential oil and mix until forming a paste. If the paste is too thick you can add a bit more apple cider vinegar until thinning it out to your desired consistency.
Using your fingers, spread mask over your face or desired area. Let it set for five to 15 minutes or until the mask hardens (but before it starts to overly dry and crack or flake). This is crucial: when the mask is damp, your skin is being detoxified and infused with the clay’s minerals, when it starts to harden your blood flow increases as the mask contracts, but once it starts to overly dry you can dehydrate your skin or cause irritation. See why you only need a few minutes a week to work miracles with this mask?
Rinse with warm water using slight circular motions. Pat dry with a clean towel and apply moisturiser.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. If it dries out you can add more apple cider vinegar. Happy pampering!
