Homemade Clay Masks Using Natural Ingredients

In terms of beauty trends, masks have always been popular, but one thing that has 
changed is the type of mask. Cucumber masks you peel off to reveal soft, smooth skin 
used to be the top trend, but now it is all about the clay masks you rinse off. Here are 
some homemade clay masks you can make using all natural ingredients.

Rose Clay Mask

This first clay mask is one that you can make using a few different rose products. Rose 
isn’t just for smelling pretty or making your home look beautiful, but can work great as a 
face mask to improve your skin. You want to get both rose clay and rosehip oil for this 
one. You can also use a little rose water in this clay mask, but keep it on the thicker 
side. Some other ingredients to consider adding are jojoba or avocado oil, chamomile 
essential oil, and a conditioning emulsifier. 

Charcoal Clay Mask

This is definitely one of the most popular types of clay masks right now. Activated 
charcoal has many health benefits, including ones for the skin like reducing oily skin, 
helping to treat acne, and evening out your skin tone. To make your own charcoal clay 
mask, all you need is activated charcoal in powder form, some bentonite clay, and a 
little bit of raw apple cider vinegar. Combine the ingredients and apply the mask just like 
any other mask you would make. Leave it on for 10 minutes, then rinse off with cool 
water.

Bentonite and Oil Clay Mask

Here is a clay mask that has room for customizing it. It is an all-natural mask that 
combines the healing benefits of bentonite clay with the skin-improving properties of 
various essential oils. You will start with some bentonite clay, making sure it is pure clay 
and doesn’t have anything added to it. You will then want a carrier oil of your choosing 
like jojoba oil, along with essential oils that are good for the skin. Some top ones include 
lavender, rose, and frankincense, though you can mix and match with your favorite 
ones. This is a very purifying clay mask. 

As you can see, you only need a few simple ingredients to make your own clay mask. 
Choose the type of clay, add some skin healing ingredients and something for scent, 
and you have yourself a homemade mask that is perfect for your skin.
