Skin Firming Mask:

Sometimes the best cures are the least expected.In your skin's case,one of the best methods for cleaning pores is,well,more dirt.Cosmetic clay contains a host of skin-nourishing minerals,and its naturally absorbent properties help draw debris,dead skin cells,excess oils,and other toxins from pores.Used weekly, a clay mask (also called a mud mask) results in a smooth,supple,deeply clean complexion.Mixing clay powder with cool,filtered water is the simplest way to prepare a mask,but you can get added benefits by using other liquids.Cool green tea provides an extra antioxidant boost that may help fight the formation of fine lines.To soothe irritated or very dry skin,you can try mixing clay with cold milk or cream.
1) To start,add one tablespoon of water,green tea,or milk to a small bowl.Gradually add two tablespoons of fine clay powder to the liquid,stirring to prevent clumps.The result should be a smooth paste;if it's too thick or too runny,add a few drops of water or a little more clay to achieve the desired consistency.
2) Using your fingers,apply a thick layer of the paste to clean,dry skin,avoiding the eyes and lips.For a more even application,use a clean and soft one-inch paintbrush.
3) After 10 to 12 minutes,rinse with warm water.
4) Pat dry with fluffy towel and follow with a natural toner and a light moisturiser to soften and nourish skin throughout the day.
