5. Do not apply the clay mixture to the area around the eyes.
6. For girls with sensitive or dry skin, you can add a little vegetable oil and lemon juice to any mask to remove the “tightening” effect.
7. Before the procedure, it is advisable to steam and gently clean the face, after — wash with cool water, preferably boiled.
8. Do not keep a mask of white clay for longer than the specified time.
