face time: bentonite clay mask

facemsk-bentoniteclay-acv.jpg

i'm obsessed w/ healthy skin + this stuff is like magic. 100% natural calcium bentonite clay, composed of aged volcanic ash + minerals. it absorbs toxins + cleans deep down in your pores. it has lots of uses but i can personally vouch for it as a facial. 

super easy to make: mix equal parts of clay + apple cider vinegar in a non-metal bowl (metal will dull the effectiveness). apply to face, let dry and then wash off with warm water. i add a few drops of tea tree + lemon essential oils because they're good for oily skin. you can sub the ACV for water.

from naturallivingideas.com:

Clay minerals typically form over long periods of time from the gradual chemical weathering of rocks, usually silicate-bearing, by low concentrations of carbonic acid and other diluted solvents. 

Bentonite clay also called Montmorillonite, is a very popular healing clay that also cleanses the body. This clay is made from minerals such as iron, sodium, calcium, potassium and magnesium, formed from volcanic ash. The name of the clay (bentonite) comes from the biggest deposit of Bentonite clay that is located in Fort Benton, Wyoming.

Adding water to the clay gives it a negative electric charge, which in turn, removes toxins from the body to detoxify and clarify.
