Lee and I are both beauty junkies, but I am definitely the hippie version of the two of us. I’m all about natural beauty products made from ingredients that aren’t lethal to ingest and am convinced that apple cider vinegar is the cure to all my beauty (and household) woes.
I’ve slowly over the course of the past year been converting my beauty regimen to completely natural products. Admittedly, the conversion has had its ups and downs. I’ve never had skin issues but in the process of detoxing from the chemicals I found myself breaking out quite a bit. But I’ve held strong and through it all have discovered so many amazing natural ingredients to treat everything from that gigantic pimple to those pesky black heads.
I’m now a total convert to DIY face masks and moisturizing with oil (yes, you read that correctly). As I continue to discover the homemade tricks that work for my skin, I’ll be sharing them with you. Today we’re starting with this DIY Pore Minimizing Face Mask.
1/2 tsp matcha green tea powder
1/2 tsp bentonite clay powder
2 activated charcoal capsules, opened and emptied
2 tsp filtered water
THE PROCESS //
1. In a small bowl combine matcha, clay and charcoal.
2. Slowly add water and stir to create a paste
3. Clean your face (I use this cleanser) and leave it slightly damp
4. Spread mask all over your face avoiding contact with eyes
5. Keep on face for 15 minutes. Mask will dry and harden.
6. Wash face removing mask with a damp washcloth.
7. Moisturize as needed. I use this moisturizer.
