APHRODITE FACE MASK - Sun Potion

APHRODITE FACE MASK

This is a soul-soothing facial mask that summons our inner Aphrodite! She's within us all, just quietly awaiting her spotlight. I invite you to plan out a desirable date with yourself, yes just you and all the parts of you! Include this Aphrodite mask within this date and allow your goddess essence to arise! Let yourself be quietly drawn to her spirit, you may be surprised at the ways she's invoked. She may have you singing to the roses or baking bread amongst the buzzing bees... Whatever it may be, trust her, play with her, feel her, and radiate her sensual nature! She is us, we are she!

Ingredients

1/4 cup rolled oats

1 tbsp. French green clay (or white clay if skin is more sensitive)

1/4 tsp. Sun Potion Pearl Powder

1 tsp. Sun Potion Yin Power

4 tbsp. dried herbs (roses, lavender, chamomile, yarrow — 1 tbsp. of each)

Sun Potion Solar Rose Water

1 tsp. honey

Method

Pulse oats, powders, and herbs in a blender or coffee grinder
Then with a ceramic or wooden spoon (no metal — clay and metal do not work well together) mix the clay in. This will be your final dry product, and I recommend storing this in a jar in your bathroom!

~ To Use ~

Place about a tablespoon of dry mask with about 5 sprays of Solar Rose Water. Then mix in about 1/2 tablespoon of honey — more if you prefer the consistency to be more runny, less if you prefer it firm.

Apply mask to freshly cleaned face, and use a damp washcloth (preferably warm) or steam your face with some favourite dried herbs to prepare for the mask! (elderflower, yarrow, rose, lavender, calendula are some of my favourites)

As you are massaging your mask in, envision what you are letting go of, what you are washing away to feel more aligned to your inner goddess. This may be a vision, a word, a song...

Let this mask elope with your skin for about 15-20 min and remember you're on a date with yourself!! I personally love adorning myself with this mask as I soak in the bath eating dark chocolate, fresh flowers floating about, candles, and alluring french music serenading me! Yes — Indulge!

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the dry mask keep?

Stored dry in a sealed jar away from moisture, the blend keeps for months. Only mix what you need for a single use — the honey and rose water go in at the last moment.

Why no metal spoon?

Clay is traditionally mixed with ceramic or wood. Use a wooden or ceramic spoon and a non-metal bowl.

Which clay should I use?

French green clay is the more drawing of the two. If your skin runs sensitive or dry, use white (kaolin) clay instead.

What do Pearl and Yin Power bring to it?

Pearl has been traditionally valued in beauty rituals for centuries, and Yin Power is a blend of tonic herbs traditionally associated with the feminine.
