DIY Facial Mask
Last Friday, Tiffany taught a class on skin care. The highlight was definitely the DIY Facial Mask. She mixed up the recipe above. She was careful to use a non-metal bowl and utensil. We had two wonderful volunteers. The rest of us were amazed by the results. I went out the next day to Sprouts and purchased one of the ingredients (Bentonite clay). Together, the clay and the vinegar pictured below are about $10. It is amazing how little you use, so it ends up being VERY inexpensive.
Of course, I already had the Geranium essential oil. It is one of my favorite oils for skin care.
I mixed the recipe up and put the mask on as soon as I had the ingredients. I also put some on my kids' noses. We had it on for about 15 minutes and then washed it off. My skin was flushed and felt warm to the touch for a little over 30 minutes. I have heard that this reaction is a good thing because it is stimulating the collagen. I know for sure that my face was smoother and looked healthier.
Over the last few days, quite a few people from the class rushed right out to buy the Bentonite Clay and Apple Cider Vinegar as well. I'll definitely be doing it again.
