Anti-age and detox facial at home: spirulina & green clay face mask
This mask is one of those magic natural homemade treatments that are so easy to make and, at the same time, provide such a great result! You only need 3 components and 15 minutes to make this treatment, and it works as a $100 worth of cosmetics!
FRENCH CLAY AND SPIRULINA
This mask provides your skin with deep detox: we all need it from time to time, as during the day, our skin accumulates microparticles of air pollution.
French green clay in this mask works as a magnet, it tears out ions of toxic elements and replaces it with ions of minerals and microelements. This clay has a very reach composition, as it is mined in the area of prehistoric swamps (that is why it is green).
The powder of spirulina makes a great cosmetic component as well. It has a lot of beneficial properties for our skin:
- makes wonder for tired and dull skin, as it improves blood circulation in all skin layers
- stimulates cellular turnover
- tones up the skin, makes it look healthier and younger
Spirulina makes an excellent component for anti-age care, as it helps to remove wrinkles and brings back a healthy skin complexion.
HOMEMADE FACE MASK
To make your mask, you have to combine:
- 2 parts of green french clay
- 1 part of spirulina in powder
Mix it well and put it in a glass jar or container; keep it closed. When ready to make a treatment, just take 2 tbsp of this mixture and add some liquid to it, steer it well till you have something like a paste (rather thick then running). Apply this paste on the previously cleansed face, neck, and decollеte and leave for 15 min. Relax and think about something beautiful 🙂
After that, gently remove the mask with wet cotton dick, rinse the skin thoroughly and apply toner and cream.
You can use a different kinds of liquids to make your mask:
- milk – for dry and irritated skin
- natural rose water – great for mature skin
- witch hazel – for oily and acne-prone skin
- mineral water or diluted fruit juice (orange, pomegranate) – for normal skin
- Greek yogurt – for dry and mature skin
If you are around 20, you can make this mask from time to time just for detox purposes. At 30-35, you should make it once a week to remove toxins and provide microelements. After 35, you can make a course of 10-15 makes twice a year (every two days).
