Sunday Ritual: Face Mask

Our skin takes a lot of crap. From transferring dirt and oils from our finger tips with the slightest touch to the smog in the air billowing out of car mufflers, our pores absorb a lot more gunk than we think. By cleansing our skin twice a day, we wash away most dirt and grime, but every now and then a deep, detoxifying mask will vamp up our skin's health and natural glow. I like to apply face masks once a week as my 'Sunday Ritual' and spruce up my home at the same time. Multitasking baby! The list benefits of face masks is ridiculously long: deep cleansing, increases hydration, pore refining, even skin tone, skin firming, acne fighting and more. In the market for a new face mask?
