Make a paste with warm water until it's smooth and fine. Massage into your skin for a few minutes, avoiding the eye area. Allow the mask to dry. After gently rinsing with water, apply your moisturiser.
It can be used as a face and body mask, in scrubs and cleansers, or as the foundation for any homemade beauty recipe. You could also try adding a drop of essential oil to the mixture.
For teeth and gums, make a paste with water, or use as a dry powder by dipping your toothbrush into it. Brush your teeth and rinse as normal. You can also make a mouthwash by mixing with water and gargling to remove bad odors and harmful bacteria.
Avoid using metallic utensils with activated clay for optimal results.
