DIY Volcanic Face Mask
Ingredients:
- 1 tbsp activated charcoal
- 1 tbsp bentonite clay (we like Azetc Indian Healing Clay brand)

- 1/4 cup water
Directions:
- To a bowl, add your activated charcoal and bentonite clay.
- Heat up 1/4 cup of water and slowly pour the warm water over the charcoal and clay.

- Now add in your tea tree oil and stir.
- The consistency should be that of a thick cream.
- Apply all over your face and neck and leave on for 15-20 minutes or until the mask has dried on.
- Remove using a soft, wet washcloth. Rinse off any residue and follow up with a moisturizer.
