Recipe: Sea Clay Facial Masque

You Will Need:

Dry Materials:
4 oz Sea Clay

1 oz Parsley Powder
1 oz Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda)

Liquid Materials:
1 oz Vegetable Glycerin
2.5 ml (1/2 tsp) Japanese Green Tea Extract
8 drops Sandalwoods Essential Oil Blend (optional)
4 drops Geranium (Rose) Compound (optional)
4 drops Lavender, Bulgarian Essential Oil (optional)

Phase 1: Combine dry, powdered ingredients in a stainless steel or glass mixing bowl. Mix well to incorporate. Continue to mix well to incorporate all ingredients.
Package in an airtight container. No refrigeration is required but product should be stored in a cool, dry place away from moisture.

Phase 2: Combine liquid ingredients in a glass mixing container and incorporate well. The essential oils are optional if you wish to offset the natural odor of the sea clay. You may omit them if you wish. Package in an amber glass bottle and store in a cool, dry place away from moisture.

To Use As A Masque:
Add 2 parts powdered product and 1 part liquid product into a small bowl and stir to blend until it forms a spreadable, thick paste (if it is too thick, add more liquid). Use a facial brush or your fingers to apply mixture to cover face and throat (avoiding eyes) and massage in a circular pattern. Allow to sit for 5 minutes and rinse to remove any residue. Apply a lightweight moisturizer.
