Green Clay & Charcoal
Always do a patch test first.
In a small dish add a small amount of clay, slowly add little bit of water or water hydrolat (Lavender or Rose water) until a paste is formed. Apply to your face & neck with brush and leave for 10 minutes. Remove using a warm face cloth. Use once or twice a week.
Clay should never be stored in a metal container or stirred with metal spoon. Metal spoons & bowls will react with the clay-reducing most of its healing properties.
Always remove your mask before it fully dries. When you leave a clay mask on too long by letting it dry & harden -the clay ends up absorbing essential water from your skin barrier ,which effects hydration levels.
