Step 1
Start by buying a quality, very fine grade French green Clay. A pound of this clay is sufficient for a few applications, but you can buy more for future use. The cost is around $ 8.00 a pound and can be found in Body and Bath shops. Also, get purified water.

Step 2
If desired use a small bottle of essential oil. Use chamomile essential oil for most skin types. Other oils that may be used include: jasmine, geranium and lavender depending on preference and skin type. Use natural organic essential oils if you are going to add any oil to the clay mix.

Step 3
Mix the French green clay powder and the purified water in a large bowl, start with 3 ounces of clay powder and one teaspoon of water. Stir the ingredients to create a consistent texture mix. Add more clay or water to obtain the desired texture. Use a teaspoon of your choice of essential oil, if desired and mix with the clay and water.
