How to Make a Mud Face Mask

A mud mask is helpful in removing the dead cells from your skin. When your skin is relieved of the impurities of dead cells, you will notice a clearer complexion as well as a youthful glow to your skin. Making a mud mask at home ensures that you are not applying harsh ingredients that could ultimately damage your skin.

Things You'll Need

• 2 tbsp. betonite clay (sold at health food stores)
• 1 tsp. hot water
• One egg white
• 1/4 avocado
• 1 tsp. olive oil
• Small bowl

Instructions

1. Mash the avocado in a small bowl.

2. Add the betonite clay powder and the hot water to the avocado.

3. Add the egg white and olive oil to the mixture and stir until smooth.

4. Apply clay mixture to the face of body and allow to dry for at least 20 minutes. Rinse with warm water.

Tips & Warnings

• Rinse the sink and drain thoroughly after washing mud mask off of your skin. This will prevent mud from building up inside of the pipes.
