OUTSIDE HELP: MIRACLE CURESTypes of Products Available - MasksThere are basically two kinds of masks, nourishing masks and those made with clay or drying properties.Nourishing masks may contain flower herbal extracts, seaweed and b vitamins soothes and hydrates skin and tightens and closes pores. One of the more commonly used clays is bentonite. Bentonite comes from volcanic ash and was used by the American Indians for its healing properties and to draw out toxins. When mixed with water it becomes more gelatinous. Clay has natural properties which help to remove dirt and impurities from the skin. Clay also absorbs oil and tighten pores and is often mixed with herbal extracts such as chamomile, calendula for their additional healing properties. Instead of buying prepared clay mask mixtures, try buying pure bentonite clay (available from your local natural food store) and mixing it with apple cider vinegar (raw is preferable). Although the instructions on all clay masks tell you to apply a layer all over your face, refrain from that and mix only a small amount. Then apply the clay only to specific breakout s with a cotton swab. I used to do the clay mask all over my face, then as I began to learn more about how skin functions, I realized I was doing more harm than good. I was drying out my skin and setting up the vicious cycle all over again. Another cool thing to try is Papaya! Papaya enzymes are rich in papain which is a non abrasive exfoliant. Avoid using intensive masks more than once a week and give your skin a chance to rest and respond to the treatments you give it.
