Having good skin is very important to me! Therefore, forming
a habit of practicing good skincare is simply what I do. I love makeup, and I love being
outdoors, but both can take a toll on your skin…specifically, your face. So on top of using facial cleansers and
exfoliators, I also use a mask.
Let me tell you about my latest mask.
It’s called, “Indian Healing Clay,” and as they say, it’s
the most powerful facial in the world.
I’m so convinced of this statement because in each use, there’s a
pulsating motion that you will feel once the mask is on your face. I imagine it to be tiny magnetic
forces, pulling all the dirt and makeup out of your face, while vacuuming the
pores clean. You’ll get that last
statement once you use it.
I start off scooping the powder into a ramekin (I use about
two tablespoons). I also add a few
drops of almond oil for added moisture.
I have a friend that uses tea tree oil. Next, organic apple cider vinegar. The mixture will begin to fizz…reminding you of a volcano
science project. Mix well. Here, I use a Popsicle stick, but a
plastic spoon works just the same.
Apply the mask on a clean face. You already know to avoid your eyes and of course, don’t eat
it. While the mask sits on my face
(eight to 10 minutes), I usually take a shower or read, but what you won’t be
doing is talking. As the mask
hardens, that pulsating action we talked about earlier begins, and well, no one
will understand what you’re saying, so it’s no need of trying to talk.
Once you’ve had enough…and believe me, you will feel like
you’ve had enough…it’s time to rinse off.
Typically, I do this with warm water, and then follow up with a cold
splash (you must close those pores).
Follow up with a moisturizer (I use jojoba oil) and you’re all set. You will immediately notice how
amazingly soft your face will feel and look.
Indian Healing Clay is available at Whole Foods or Earth
Fare.
