Description

Directions

• Gather your ingredients and a non-metallic bowl (Bentonite Clay should not come in contact with metal). The amount you use of each ingredient will greatly depend on your skin complexion.
• I have fair skin (it’s the Swedish) so this combo works perfect for me: 1/4 cup arrowroot, 4 TB cocoa powder, 1/4 tsp EACH nutmeg and ginger (if you have more of an olive skin complexion you may need more), 1/2-1 tsp cinnamon, 2 tsp Bentonite Clay, 10 drops of liquid vitamin E, 10-12 drops of lavender essential oil (or another favorite skin-safe essential oil).
• Mix all your ingredients in the bowl, starting with the arrowroot as your base. Add each ingredient. Whisk together.
• Test the color by placing a small amount on your face (or arm) with your finger or a brush. It may take a little tweaking the first time to make the perfect shade for your complexion.
