Clay Masks

The recipes below each make enough for 10 to 12 applications.


Basic method:

Mix all of the dry ingredients thoroughly.

Sieve to filter out any large particles. Grind these with a pestle and mortar and re-sieve.

Store the dry mixture in an airtight glass jar until needed.


For each application:

Weigh out 35-40g of the powder then add the essential oils and combine.

Blend with enough spring water to make smooth paste.

Apply to the face avoiding the eyes.

Lie down and relax for 15 minutes.

Rinse off well with just-warm water before applying a natural moisuriser.
