One of my proudest achievements, my hand-crafted Papaya Pumice Clay-Scrub Kit, gives you the best of multiple salon care products at home. Made with 2 fruit enzymes, 3 types of clay, soothing allantoin, and crushed pumice, this kit is a wonderful multi-purpose addition to your skincare routine. It comes in powder form, and the kit includes 2 plastic shot glasses, a small scoop for measuring, a small spatula for mixing, and a small brush for application. Why the silly name? Honestly, I had no idea what else to call it. I'm open to suggestions. lol
This Clay-Scrub kit is great for giving yourself a once-a-week facial at home for smooth, clear, decongested skin. For an occasional pick-me-up when your skin is looking dull or feeling a little rough, the powder makes for a perfect scrub (thanks to the action of the crushed pumice) when mixed with your regular cleanser.
When used as a scrub and mask, first scrubbing very gently to make way for the actions of the enzymes and clay, the various clays then work their magic, then going even further are the fruit enzymes that loosen and dissolve dead skin cells, which enhances the drawing action of the clay ingredients. Then, the crushed pumice whisks away all the loosened dead cells as you rinse! Nothing else like it out there, I checked!
1. scrubbing action upon application
2. enzyme action dissolving dead skin cells
3. loosening of more dead skin and oil absorption with multiple clays, and finally,
4. a gentle final scrubbing upon rinsing.
The great thing about my Papaya Pumice Clay-Scrub is that it can be used on all skin types, except for the most sensitive. Inflamed acne with pustules, redness, and irritation can even benefit from this mask, as long as the right liquid is used, and scrubbing is super duper gentle.
