Bentonite Clay Face Mask

Bentonite clay binds with toxins to remove them from the body! And it works in our gut, skin, and mouth. When used on your skin as a mask, bentonite clay binds to your skin and extracts toxins from your pores. This helps to clear up blemishes, heal allergic reactions, and fight infections.

Apple cider vinegar also fights blemishes, balances your skin, removes dead skin, and helps to remove toxins from your body.

Bentonite clay + apple cider vinegar = the PERFECT face mask

INGREDIENTS

Bentonite Clay

Apple Cider Vinegar (I buy ACV by the gallon... we seriously use it that often)

DIRECTIONS

Wash your face :) I use Dr. Bronner's Castille Soap as a face wash. *Update 4/19/18: I now use our All-in-One Face Oil, it's magical.

Pour a small amount of bentonite clay in a nonmetal jar (ACV reacts with metal). I use approximately 1-2 tablespoons. Add apple cider vinegar and mix with a nonmetal spoon (or your finger =P) until you make a nice thick paste. Slather a nice thick layer on your face. Let it sit for 15-20 minutes (less if you have sensitive skin) and then wash it off with warm water, ahhhh :) Don't be alarmed, your face will be a little red, but it goes away after a few minutes. 

Anyone and everyone who has tried this absolutely loves it! I know you will too.

Enjoy!

Notes:

You can substitute water for the ACV.
