What You'll Need

Step-by-Step

  1. In a non-metal bowl, combine 1 tbsp Natural Rose Clay and 1 tbsp Aloe Vera Gel. Mix gently with a wooden spoon.
  2. Add 1 tbsp Citronella Toner slowly, stirring continuously, until the mixture forms a smooth, mousse-like paste.
  3. Apply on cleansed face using fingertips or a fan brush, focusing on oily areas (T-zone, sides of nose). Avoid the eye and lip area.
  4. Leave on for 12-15 minutes. Rose clay is one of the gentlest clays — do not let it dry fully or crack. Mist with toner if it dries too fast.
  5. Rinse with lukewarm water using gentle upward circles. Pat dry.
  6. Follow with a hydrating toner and a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizer.
  7. Frequency: Use 1-2 times a week for oily/combination skin.
  8. Storage: Use immediately.

Pro Tips

Citronella is mildly stimulating — skip if skin is sensitive or broken. Make fresh each use.
