Preparing homemade facemasks is one of the best ways to ensure you know exactly what you are putting on your face. DIY face masks can be cheaper than store-bought, it helps the environment by reducing plastic packaging and it's easy enough to make. As DE is thoroughly ground into a fine powder it makes for a gentle face mask. In addition to silica DE also contains abundant trace minerals such as calcium, magnesium and zinc. Since minerals can be absorbed through the skin, this is a perfect way for healthy minerals to be absorbed into the body whilst the DE absorbs and eliminates toxins.
*This Face Mask is intended for monthly use however, we recommend its use according to your needs and to consult your GP or dermatologist beforehand.
