Home Spa : Soothing Spring mask
16 Mar 2010
Dear Reader,
The Spring equinox is right around the corner but we are just coming out of a tough Winter. Each cold season takes a toll on our skin, which needs help and nurture to heal itself. As explained in one of our latest articles Cold season: the other worst enemy of your skin, Winter can be as damaging on your skin as sun exposure: dryness, irritation, sensitivity, wrinkles, fine lines and the whole nine yards are the usual aftermath of Winter… Fortunately, there are simple and easy ways to repair these damages: there is nothing better than a soothing facial mask to replenish your skin. Step into the freshness of the Spring with a glowing skin with this exclusive recipe.
Soothing Spring Mask for dry, tired and sensitive skin
As with any of Nature Purity Home Spa recipe, give yourself the treat of being completely free for as long as you can: turn off your cell phone, stay away from your computer, TV and ask everyone at home to leave you alone. Preparing the mask will take less than 5 min if you have the ingredients. Applying the mask for 10 min. is already a big treat to your skin.
What you need:
- 1/2 cup rice flour
- 1/3 cup white clay
- 1/3 cup organic Orange Blossom floral water
- 1 tbsp organic Apricot Kernel oil
- 1 tbsp local liquid honey
Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl. Add the Orange Blossom floral water and stir. Add the Apricot Kernel oil and honey and mix until the paste is smooth. Adjust the texture of the mask with more Orange Blossom floral water to get a perfectly smooth paste: not too dry and not too liquidy.
Apply the Spring Soothing Mask on your cleansed face and neck, avoiding the eye and lip contours. Leave on for 10 min while relaxing and visualizing your most beloved natural landscape. Rinse with lukewarm water and moisturize with an organic anti-aging and nourishing cream like Biolift or Tocophea Night Cream. Notice how you feel. Every single time I take the time to do a mask, I feel so relaxed and my skin looks and feels like a million bucks.
If you still have some Spring Soothing Mask left in the bowl, cover it and put it in the fridge: you can use it within the next few days.
Enjoy the Spring and St Patrick’s day!
