skincare tip - don't let your clay mask dry all the way
I know, I know it sounds crazy because everything we know about masking is leaving it on for 15 minutes until it dries, then rinse. This is really the wrong way to go.
Why? 🤷🏼♀️
Well, the benefits of the clay are already working their magic while sitting on the skin. By drying the mask completely the clay will then tighten and start drawing out every ounce of moisture that your skin has (oil & water) causing surface dehydration which can lead to a dull complexion and even worse... a moisture stripped barrier!
Try leaving your mask on for the normal 15 minutes but instead when you feel it starting to tighten or dry out, spritz a spray of a hydrating mist or thermal water to prevent the mask from drying completely. You will still notice a fresh and clean feeling after you’re done except without stripping your skin ☺ .
