Nature Purity Home Spa: The Art of facial Masks
Most people think of Beauty masks as superfluous and unnecessary, as
long as they clean, tone and moisturize well enough. That would be
true for chemical masks full of plenty of nothing, but not for Clay
masks. In reality Clay masks have been used for millennia all around
the world for Beauty and much more... The action of Clay goes far
beyond your skin. Today, we propose Clay masks recipes to purify and
vitalize your skin and mind!
Express skin purification, toning and revitalization
You will love the way your face looks after Clay facial Masks: smooth,
soft and evenly toned. Imagine you could get a facial every week,
without waiting, commuting and paying a hefty price? That is what our
Clay mask recipes offer you with natural simplicity and superb
efficacy.
At the physical level, Clay (White or Green according to your
skin type) purifies your skin from the dirt, pollutants, dusts, oil
and dead cells. It also brings essential minerals as well as
stimulates its vitality, breathing and microcirculation. Finally, Clay
through its regenerating properties has a potent anti-aging and
anti-wrinkle action.
At the emotional level, Clay also purifies negative emotions
and stress. Egyptians considered Clay as purifying and therefore
sacred. When a family member passed away, women were covering their
face with clay and were going around in the neighborhood while
crying. Don't think this is only symbolic. Well prepared, Clay plays a
powerful role on the psyche by absorbing the negative emotions of the
mourning person. Don't try to pretend that your never have sad or
angry emotions, we all have because we are humans. Clay masks can help
you!

Holistic Beauty treatment for stress busting
A purifying and rejuvenating mask can take as little as 10-15 minutes
a week, and this is more than enough to feel great and love the
reflection in the mirror a little bit more (or a lot!). The world
around you will not change, but you will, as well as your perception
of it. Although science is just beginning the study of the impact of
stress on people's health and aging, I can tell you that it is the #1
aging and killing agent.
By nurturing your own beauty in the comfort of your home, you reap the
benefits of switching off your stress, feeling great and looking
great. This quality time with yourself can bring inspiration for
positive change.
Holistic Home Spa weekly routine
First you need to isolate yourself and make sure that everyone in the
family knows that you shouldn't be disturbed for the amount of time
you have set up. Make sure your cell phone is off and put some very
relaxing music. Take a rejuvenating journey with us back to the
Source, Nature.
Some may think that Beauty is vanity, and it is when it is used for
power. But I would argue that today more than ever, Beauty is a
question of survival. Real Beauty is an absolute necessity, like air,
food and water.
Clay masks have so many benefits for your skin and your mind that
after reading this article, I hope you will treat yourself and include

are coming: look for these new recipes!
