This stuff sucks...but not how you might think

I mean that as a good thing! This amazing clay mask sucks the goop outta your pores better than a dirt devil.

sucky in a good way!

It can be found at most health food stores, Whole Foods, or online.

If you can't afford facials, but need some serious deep pore cleansing action, at around $7 a tub, this is for you. Mix according to package directions with pure apple cider vinegar (this works alot better to create a good consitency than water, which you can also use. Beware: it can be pretty intense. The clay literally pulls everything out, creating a pulsing sensation as it dries and tightens (the intense part). If you can get through the first few minutes of it beginning to dry, it almost starts to feel good, especially if you visualize all the nasty grime it's sucking out.

Afterwards, you'll be blessed with incredibly smooth, clean skin that looks virtually pore-less.

I have oily skin, so I like to do it once a week. However, if you're on the dry side, you may only want to use it once a month. It also works great as an overnight spot treatment for stubborn pimples.
