🥣 How to Mix and Prepare the Clay• The Golden Rule: Always mix bentonite clay using non-metal utensils and bowls (such as wood, plastic, glass, or ceramic). Bentonite clay absorbs metals, which reduces its negative electrical charge and makes the mask less effective.
• The Right Liquid:
• Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV): Mixing equal parts clay and raw apple cider vinegar helps neutralize the high pH of the clay. This creates a smooth, fizzing paste that is easiest to apply.
• Water: If using water, the mixture can clump easily. Mix slowly and thoroughly. Note that water leaves the mixture highly alkaline, which may feel harsher or more irritating to sensitive skin types.
