I turned on Freaks and Geeks, put on this face mask, and relaxed in a detox bath. It's a great way to relax and prepare for the week ahead. Especially with a super clean face and unclogged pores.
I always do this before bed, so I usually start showering around 9. First, I exfoliate using sea salt and jojoba oil. This allows the mask to sink deeper into the skin.
I let the mask harden on my face and, after removing it, quickly applied my homemade moisturizer (which I will be selling soon, so watch your eyes!). My homemade moisturizer is amazing for acne-prone skin, especially if, like me, you too have the privilege of having old acne scars from your teenage years.
The clay from this mask really draws dirt from the skin
You can literally feel it harden and tighten your face. Apple cider vinegar is a great toner and balances the skin's pH, while tea tree penetrates to kill harmful acne-causing bacteria, and lavender soothes the skin.

Once removed, your pores are open, and it's the perfect time to add some intense moisturizer and essential oils (especially if you have acne).
