Clay powder face mask

Please note that our masks are packaged in powder form to maintain a good shelf life without the need for preservatives. The ingredients are activated when mixed with a small amount of water, which means every time you mix up a mask it is fresh and active. Customers love the ritual of mixing up their own mask, and you will too.

How to mix up your clay face mask

Add one medium heaped teaspoon of powder to a small round bowl. Add approximately two teaspoons of water to create a smooth paste.

Apply to clean skin, avoiding the eye area. Gently remove after 10-15 minutes with a wash cloth and warm water. Do not leave the mask on for longer than 15 minutes as this could cause irritation. Follow with our face oil or face moisturiser for a balanced skincare ritual. The mask will feel cool on the skin - this is normal and is the soothing action of the aloe vera.

Do not apply to broken skin.

How long do you leave a clay mask on your face?

It's best to leave a clay mask on for 10-15 minutes. You want it to start drying but not dry out so much that it starts cracking and feeling tight. Leaving it on for too long will make it difficult to remove and it may leave your skin feeling dry.

How often should you use a clay face mask?

I recommend that you use this mask once or twice a week.
