Safe Team Masquerade Parade

Got zits? Got blackheads? Got skin that just needs a boost? Come on in and see what SAFETEAM has for you. BUT!!! instead of just advertising our wares we have a MASQURADE PARADE for you. Here is how we take care of these nasty hassles in life. We not only make our wonderful MASQUES, we even use them, and here is the proof below. We love to have fun, and we are not afraid to show it. We also do not mind if you have a giggle in the process. All of these masques are available for purchase in our stores.
Dry facial masks or masques can consist of clays of all different colors and benefits, herbs, fruit powders, milk powders, powdered or ground oatmeal and sometimes other skin-loving additives such as cocoa powder, Vitamin C, honey powder, coconut milk powder and the list can go on and on depending on the function the facial mask will perform.   Since the mask consists mainly of dry ingredients, no preservatives are necessary, making this product very natural and also safe.

Here are a few of our SAFE Team members with the great masks they make:

Got problem skin? Sometimes soap, cleansers etc, just don't do the trick. What better way to help your skin, and get to sit back and relax, than a Fabulous Facial Masque? This dry facial masque has kaolin clay, green tea extract powder, Yogurt powder, and colloidal oatmeal

To soothe and relax your face, put about the size of a quarter of powders in your hand or small bowl, put either water, milk, yogurt, or whatever you like to mix and moisten your powders with. Spread all over your face, avoiding the eyes and mouth area, sit back and let it dry on your face, should be between 10 and 20 minutes. Once your mask is nice and dry, wash off with warm water, and then pat dry. Enjoy your beautiful soft glowing skin. If necessary, add some moisturizing lotion or cream

Me-Time Rose Geranium Dry Facial Mask:
A good  facial is one of my favorite ways to relax (aside from a good tub soak) because it is quick and makes me feel refreshed when it's done.  This particular mask is made with a blend of kaolin and rose clays, oat flour, honey powder, vitamin E, and a couple drops of geranium essential oil.  To this I add just enough water to make it sticky and apply it to my face avoiding eyes and mouth.  Let it set up (your skin starts to feel tight) then rinse thoroughly.  Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!  Of course the kids always look at me funny, but when I have my favorite chair in a sunny window no matter the season...I don't care what they think!


Erin Krugs from Krugs Ecologic
Chocolate Facial Masque

What do you get when you mix a choco-holic with a skin product enthusiast? This super-scrumptious, skin-a-licious, chocolate facial! Made with real dark chocolate, coffee grounds, and white kaolin clay this product not only is fabulous for your skin, but smells good enough to eat!
Also in this delectable concoction is natural tocopherol (vitamin e), and a TOUCH of lemon and sweet orange essential oils.
Each ingredient was carefully selected for it's inherent, beneficial qualities. Dark chocolate is loaded with antioxidants. Lemon and orange oils help to refresh skin, and provide astringent properties by helping to remove any excess oils. Kaolin clay is a fabulous detoxifier, and removes excess oils from your skin. Coffee bean seed is a fabulous exfoliator, helping to polish skin and give your face a gorgeous glow!

Janet Amelia of Amelia's
Janet Amelia of Amelia’s Soap Co. will do anything for chocolate!  Of course, it’s usually the high calorie kind, preferably sticky and gooey too.
Janet also loves her Chocolata-Licious Face Mask with organic cocoa powder.  It must be the smell of chocolate that she loves because there’s no calories there.  (What?!!!  No calories?!!!)
This partiality must come from how the face mask makes her skin feel --- all smooth and tight.  Kaolin clay is known to remove impurities from skin and the finely ground coffee acts as a scrub when the mask goes on.
Getting great skin in a healthy way and having chocolate fun at the same time (and all “guilt free”), what could be better?!!!

It is me in a rhassoul clay mask.  I have the Mocha Latte Facial Mask in my shop with rhassoul clay.
