Directions of Use
- Take 1 or 2 tablespoons of clay with 1-2 teaspoons (or more) water. You may need more liquid to form a smooth spreadable paste-like consistency. Allow the mixture to thicken for one minute; add more liquid if it is too thick or more clay if it is too thin.
- Apply with a brush or with your fingers, massage onto the face, throat, and décolleté with an upward and outward circular motion, avoiding the delicate eye area.
- Allow the clay to dry completely for 20 to 30 minutes, preferably while you are lying down.
- Don’t scrub your face to remove the mask, instead use a wet cloth to remove the cleanser.
- Wash off with a washcloth that you have soaked in warm water, place over your face and allow the mask to absorb the water.
- Rinse well with warm water, while scrubbing gently with a washcloth, then spray your favorite hydrosol or toner over the cleansed area.
- Massage your face, neck, décolleté, or body with a good oil (jojoba, argan, marula) and then apply your favorite moisturizer as the final step of your skincare routine.
