French Green Clay Face Mask

Posted on April 11, 2022

This super moisturising, creamy face mask, is made with French green clay and grape seed oil. It is easy to make and glides on to the skin so easily and effortlessly.

French green clay has an exceptional mineral content making it a perfect ingredient in this face mask. It easily absorbs impurities in the skin, leaving it feeling fresh, smooth and glowing. You can substitute the green clay for Australian White Clay if you prefer a gentler mask suitable for sensitive skin. Leave on for a few minutes, then wash off with cold water. Apply your moisturiser soon after.

We chose grapeseed oil as our carrier oil due to its wonderful emollient properties. It is easily absorbed into the skin and helps to retain skin moisture and repair damage.

Please always do a test patch to determine if this preparation is suitable for your own skin type. Any cosmetic may cause irritation on sensitive skin.

Equipment:

small pot for the stove

small heat proof container

accurate kitchen or jewelers scales

28gm Aluminium screw top tin

This recipe produces around 20 gms of product

Ingredients:

Phase A:

9.5 gms Grapeseed oil

0.5 gms BTMS

2 gms Emulsifying Wax NF

Phase B:

8 gms French Green Clay

Directions:

Place a small, wide mouth pot on the stove and bring around 5 cm of water to a simmer.

Weigh out your phase A ingredients in a small, heat proof container.

Place this carefully inside your double boiler and heat your phase A ingredients, stirring gently until they have all melted and combined.

Once completely melted, add your phase B, green clay, to the melted oils and stir gently until the clay has fully dissolved and incorporated into the oils. Break up any small lumps with the back of the spoon.
