I have always been fascinated with how a red lipstick just makes your face/ features pop and instantly gives you that  glam look and believe me nothing says classic like red lipstick.Maybe it is because red is such a dominant /vibrant colour often associated times with  positive energy,motivation and warmth. Red lipstick gives an instant confidence boost,but apart from red lipstick looking great on you their are added benefits to having red pout everyday.

Bentonite Clay for Deep pore cleaning of the face

Bentonite Clay 

I was searching the internet for deep pore cleaning products when I came across a product that seemed to be the standard for deep pore cleaning masks. It is Bentonite clay. After reading raving reviews of its potency I decided to purchase a container of it on Konga.com. I also bought Apple cider vinegar Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar which is needed to mix the clay.

I mixed a table spoon of the clay with a table spoon of the vinegar in a plastic bowl  to form a paste.Please note you must only use a plastic bowl to mix and not a metallic container.

Apple Cider Vinegar

I then covered my face with the paste and let it stay for 30mins. You may feel your face vibrate/pulsate this is the clay removing impurities from the pores. After 30 mins the mask had set and was now hard. I then splashed water on my face to soften it and then cleaned everything off with a wet wash cloth and Voila !!!!!!!! my face was squeaky clean and my pores had shrunk. Your face might be a bit red after words but this will subside in like 30 mins.

Just wanted to say the mask is the bomb and my makeup went on my face like a dream.The mask is especially good for people with oily and acne prone skin.

Well that was my new find this week. Cheers and have a blessed week ahead,

Love 

Ade

I hope to be fluent in both spoken and written french in the next 4 months.
