Welcome to the third in the series of my "Love the Skin You`re In". In this third part I wanted to talk about clays, and clay face masks and how they can have a huge benefit on the skin, if we chose the correct one, suited to our skin type. As face masks are very much a beauty "buzz" word at the moment, I thought this would give you a little heads up on what all the hype is about? The history of the face mask: Applying face masks and using a selection of cosmetic products and ingredients has been a ritual that has been practised since ancient times. We now know that the first ever cosmetic product made was in fact a face mask. The first Egyptian face masks were made of clay. It is said that Cleopatra herself applied a dead sea mud face mask twice a week to cleanse her skin. Face masks can offer a whole wealth of benefits to the skin, for example they can nourish, replenish, hydrate, detox, cleanse and much more! They have certainly become a buzz word this y
