THINGS TO DO INSIDE: SKINCARE EDITION

Jackie here —

in between wfh, eating, and listening to Fiona Apple

I’ve somehow managed to find time for self-care. (lol)

I could learn to sew, or bake, or even attend a Kundalini retreat via Zoom. However, none of these activities will provide the same joy that making my own skincare has brought to my life. Call me basic, but I do love a face mask, and I want to share this joy.

What to do:

• Add the clay to a ceramic or glass bowl (avoid metals)

• Pour in equal amounts of tea & vinegar (believe me, eyeballing it is part of the fun)

• Toss in a touch of lavender oil

• Mix your mask using a wooden spoon — see the note above re: metals

  the consistency should be similar to pancake batter

• sprinkle dried lavender on top to make it pretty

What you need:

• Aztec Healing Clay

• Apple Cider Vinegar

• Chamomile Tea (brewed, and cooled to room temp)

• Lavender Oil

• Dried Lavender

~ Mask Time ~

Lather on your mask

Do a dance, read a book, call your mom

Let sit for 20-30 mins, or until dry (but not too dry)

Rinse

*pro-tip: your face will be red for 2-3 hrs after the mask—this means it worked!

(Don’t trip, also maybe do it at night. Also who cares, it’s not like we’re going anywhere.)
