Morning Mask

Okay, so I'm not sure if it's the gray skies, or the super annoying construction going on in my street but I woke up grumpy and my skin just felt dull...so I got cookin'. I mixed up this yummy mask and I'm sitting here feeling my face get tighter by the second. It feels so good. Smells lovely too...had to share.

1 tsp. green tea infusion (make a strong cup of organic green tea)

2 tsp aloe vera gel

1 tsp organic honey

1 1/2 T white clay

2 T ground oatmeal

2 drops rosemary e.o

2 drops lavender e.o

Mix, give it a minute to thicken. Apply to clean skin. Wait 20 mins, rinse. Follow with toner and moisturizer.

The green tea is a powerful antioxidant, the honey and aloe are soothing, the white clay tightens and purifies and the oatmeal nourishes the skin. It's a pretty nice little combo, if I do say so myself.

Oh and I just rinsed...my skin looks brighter, more even and feels really soft!

Enjoy.

xo,

Ivy
