Editor Tip: If you want added skin-soothing benefits, we recommend following this cleanser with a hydrating toner like the Dr. Jart+ Ceramidin Liquid Moisturizing Toner, an Allure Best of Beauty winner. If you’re a skin care junkie or a lover of applying a face mask as a form of self-care , chances are that you’ve slathered on a mask made with clay. Clay has been used in beauty and medicine for centuries thanks to its detoxifying and soothing properties, which is why these types of masks often claim to rid the skin of impurities. I made this yesterday and I’m in love, I am wondering about the measurements though because mine is very runny and clay has collected at bottom the jar, should I have used a mixer? I just stirred it all together. I’ll use it regardless, just wondered if the oil should have read teaspoon not tablespoon?? Thanks a million.
