Here's a clay mask suitable even for the most sensitive skin types that can be easily irritated by ordinary masks. A super fragrant combination with all the beneficial properties of Mediterranean's ingredients!
Preparation
Heat Phase A in a double boiler or on an electric hot plate until it completely melts.
Slowly pour the olive oil into Phase A while emulsifying with a hand blender (minipimer) for about 3 minutes until the mixture becomes white and homogeneous.
Add the clay gradually, stirring well to create a smooth, lump-free mixture.
Add the ingredients from Phase C, making sure to mix well after each addition.
Note: The pH of the preparation should be between 5 and 5.5. Measure the pH using a pH meter or pH test strips. If the pH is not within this range, adjust it as follows:
If the pH is lower than 5, adjust it with a 30% caustic soda solution. Add it drop by drop using a graduated pipette.
If the pH is higher than 5.5, adjust it with lactic acid or citric acid. Again, add it drop by drop using a graduated pipette.
CAUTION: Work carefully with the graduated pipette, adding one or two drops at a time.
How to use
After cleansing your face, apply the cream generously all over your face to achieve a white-gray complexion. Leave it on for 5-10 minutes until it dries. Then, rinse your face thoroughly with plenty of warm water until all the clay residues are completely removed. Pat your face dry with a towel and apply a nourishing cream.
