Refine – “Saturday After-Shower” DIY Facial Masque
This mask comes in 2 parts: powdered ingredients and wetting liquid. Keeping them separate avoids harsh chemical required to preserve clays and stays true to the High Tea brand ethos.
Instructions: Combine 3 little spoons of powder with very little liquid at first and adjust as needed to get that mud texture. Mix and let activate 10-15 minutes and apply all over face (have a glass of water while you wait or let activate while showering!). Leave on until almost dry (not completely – clays will start pulling your skin’s own moisture) and wash off or wipe off with warm, soft cloth. If desired, use micellar water or toner to remove any remaining product, then use serum and moisturizers as per usual on clean skin for hydration and protection.
Avoid getting water into the clay blend! Mild tingling is normal – this is the papaya enzyme doing its thing!

This prebiotic and postbiotic formula provides extra gently cleansing and nourishment. Flower waters known for their calming and healing effects are used in this formula.
