Whatever the reason, you know that you want your acne gone and you want it gone now. It’s a good thing you clicked on this article because it details a very simple mask with two powerful, healing ingredients.
The two ingredients in this mask are raw apple cider vinegar and bentonite clay. When combined together, these ingredients can help to unclog pores, exfoliate the skin, rejuvenate skin tone, draw out impurities, help regenerate skin tissue, and leave the skin feeling soft.
The Powers Of Bentonite Clay
This elemental substance is widely known in the world of natural healing. Formed from volcanic ash, bentonite clay contains iron, calcium, potassium, magnesium, and sodium. Mixing it with water gives the clay a negative charge, which helps to remove toxins from the body after topical application or ingestion. When applied to the skin, bentonite clay helps to remove sebum build-up and unclog pores, shrinking them in the process. It also helps you achieve softer skin and a youthful glow.
When you use this mask, it is integral to keep it on your face for about 10-20 minutes.
