Tips & Warnings

• In place of green clay, white or pink clays can also be used but are not as deep cleansing as the green. However, consider using white or pink clay if you have sensitive or dry skin.
• A great inexpensive toner is witch hazel. Store it in the refrigerator for a refreshing feeling after a mask.
