How to do it?

I wanted to use the popular saying "it's as easy as a slap", but the right, balanced slap is not so easy to give. Making a mask is much more trivial.

First, mix the wet ingredients – gel, glycerin and honey – in a 5:5:3 ratio in a bowl. Add a little peppermint essential oil and mix.

To the base, add 4 parts bentonite, 2 parts clay, 1 part spirulina and, when you admire the perfect blue color enough, 3 parts jojoba beads, which are perfectly gentle for exfoliating the sensitive skin of the face.

Mix and apply! Thanks to the stable ingredients, you also have a stable mask - in the fridge, and theoretically outside of it, it can take care of you until you have to start the next batch.

Now all you have to do to get lucky is rub a beautiful green mixture on yourself at every free moment, or jump on an unsuspecting friend or take a selfie.

And why do you even want this mask? IT IS JUST GOD'S!

OK, time for valid arguments

Spirulina does stink, but in combination with soothing and cooling mint, you won't even notice it - but its cleansing and astringent effects definitely do! This superfood full of beta-carotene will also come in handy with food, or mix it with yogurt and you have mask No. 2 in the world.

Honey can perfectly nourish and brighten the skin, in addition to treating acne and helping to heal dry spots faster. Allergy sufferers can replace it with a larger amount of gel, but I recommend honey in this amount. I myself am topically allergic to it, but I have no problem with this mask!

Bentonite and green clay will do a similar service for you, in addition, you can use them as a separate mask after mixing with yogurt or plain water. Especially oily skin suffering from acne will appreciate them. These two magical powders will remove impurities from your skin with complete clarity.

Fine jojoba beads not only look great, but at the same time provide you with a gentle exfoliation (TIP: take a little mask in the time press, mix it with a little water and use it only as an exfoliation). Forget the coarse particles from drugstore products that will rub you to the bone. You will hardly feel this peeling, but the effect will be excellent - in addition, you will not irritate the skin and will not disturb its natural protection.

Glycerin and gel bring all this beauty together, but they also work together to help the skin retain moisture and heal minor imperfections.
