DIY Seaweed Face Mask
This rich and nourishing face mask helps improve skin tone and can be customized to your skin type.
Servings: 12 face masks
Ingredients
- 2 TBSP kelp powder
- 2 TBSP French green clay (or kaolin clay for dry skin types)
- 2 tsp spirulina powder
- essential oils of choice
- liquid of choice (aloe vera, hydrosol, carrier oil, yogurt, or water)
Instructions
- Mix the kelp powder, clay, and spirulina together in a small glass jar. This dry mix will keep for several years if stored away from light and heat.
- To make the mask add 1 teaspoon of the dry mix to a small bowl and add about 2 and 1/2 teaspoons of liquid. You want it to be thin enough to spread onto your skin, but not so thin it drips off.
- Add 1-2 drops of essential oils if desired.
- Apply an even layer to the face and leave it on for 15-20 minutes.
- Wash the mask off with warm water.
- Follow up with your favorite moisturizer if needed.
Notes
The dry powder lasts for several years if kept away from moisture and heat. Once mixed with liquid the mask should be used immediately.
