Gleamin’s Vitamin C Clay Mask

A few weeks ago I spoke about stress breaking out my face, A Face Mask For Everyone. I’m use to having clear skin, but loss one of my daily products due to discontinuation. I tried to replace it with a Lush mask, Cosmetic Warrior, to no avail. Mind you this was a sold out product, I was expecting greatness. I loveeeeee Lush, so it hurts to say the mask wasn’t for me. Continuing my quest I found Gleamin’s Vitamin C Clay Mask. Rave reviews aren’t enough, I need to see testimonials by other black people before I try anything. With all the prerequisite boxes checked, I was sold. I made the purchase and it was life changing.
Using this product the inflammation (which I’ve never experienced before) stopped as soon as it touched my face, blemishes faded, my skin was glowing. With my tan dissipating time was of the essence. Within days my skin brightened, making this a permanent part of my beauty routine. For those who aren’t seeing results, remember SPF moisturizer is essential to get rid of hyperpigmentation. Otherwise the spots stay dark due to the sun. A lot of black people skip this step in their skin regiment. Also read the directions, how often you use it depends on the severity of your breakout.
Just FYI everyone, climate change affects your skin. The excessive heat, as this was the hottest year on record, caused my skin inflammation. Stay gorgeous, by saving the environment. The more you know. Via: Gleamin


Deep Pore Cleansing Clay

Having barely visible pores and little to no blemishes I’m constantly complimented on my skin. Women stare incredulous that I’m not wearing some form of foundation. My approach to skin care is meticulous and French. Americans slather our faces in a plethora of products that contour it’s shape, highlight its highlights and cover its flaws, while the French believe in upkeep. One of the things I use to keep my skin in good condition is this Aztec Indian Healing Clay. You can use it anywhere on your body including your hair, but I use it once a week on my face.

Mix it with water and apple cider vinegar, stir until it’s a paste, wear it for 5-10 minutes on delicate skin, 15-20 on normal skin. You feel your skin tightening up as you morph into an indigenous being.

Wash it off with warm water and watch your skin glow. It can also be used for bug bites, foot soaks, bodywraps, knee packs…It’s really the best $10 you will spend on quality skin care.
