Jadryga Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I tried out a simple masque with french pink clay, cocoa powder, tapioca starch and rice bran oil. Was thinking of making little packets that contain 1-2 uses for Mother's Day to go with my soaps and maybe a body scrub.I'm seriously considering adding "CAUTION: May frighten little children" to the label though...This is... just after I'd slathered the stuff on. I smelled like hot chocolate, yum. (On a side note, pink clay and oatmeal in water smells terrible. That was my first try.)This is while I was trying to remove it. It was tough. I ended up a dark pinky color, like I went psycho with my blusher, though it's not really noticeable in the picture, so I raised my arm for a skin comparison. At that point I realized that I might need something tougher than plain water so I lathered up my shea butter soap.Tada! After removing everything.My skin's softer, but I'm thinking of using a lighter oil like jojoba so it won't be so tough for me to remove Suggestions are welcome!

Christina Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Jadryga,Great mask! I just looked over your website, very nice. I've gotta ask now that I know you use it...could you tell me where you get your Kojic Acid? Do you use the powder or that other type (kojic del...something or other). Thanks!Christina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SheilaW Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Looks great! I have to chuckle a bit though because when my teen son, grandson and all of their friends would come over to hang out they would eat every thing in sight ( much to my 14 yr old daughters dismay ) She made a big bowl of chocolate pudding and put it in the fridge with this note taped to the top." DO NOT EAT THIS IT IS FACE MASK !!!!!"2 yrs later this is still kind of a family joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jadryga Posted April 19, 2007 Author Share Posted April 19, 2007 Thanks! :embarasseActually, Christina, I get my soaps from a girlfriend in the Philippines cos lye comes under the Poisons Act here so it's hard to get it I'm helping her market them here in Malaysia. I'm doing up the rest of the other B&B - whipped shea butter, scrubs, masques, etc, though I haven't quite finished tweaking my recipes as you can see I'm not sure where she gets her kojic acid but there seems to be a LOT of it in the Philippines. I think it's the pure kojic acid powder though, not the dipalmitate.Sheila, that's funny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
