So this charcoal mask isn’t just any ole mask you can find at your favorite store. This mask is free from harsh and synthetic ingredients. It’s free from parabens, phthalates, petrochemicals, animal-derived ingredients, synthetic preservatives, synthetic fragrances, and synthetic dyes. It’s so hard to find face masks these days that are not only clean, but WORK.
Young Living’s charcoal mask uses Tahitian volcanic black sand that gently exfoliates. The activated charcoal within this formula is found in both China and South Africa and has properties that absorb impurities to help detox the skin, purify pores, and reduce the appearance of blemishes to help restore an even skin tone. This mask also contains a blend of natural alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) derived from European bilberries, Argentine lemons, Czech sugar beets, Spanish grapes, and more. Talk about phenomenal pampering!

Add a little description card to this skincare gift so you can let someone special know how unique and one of a kind this face mask is!
You can even include the following instructions on how to use straight from Young Living:
“For oily, combination, and normal skin: Cleanse face with a gentle, non-irritating cleanser; then apply a thin layer of the mask to clean face and allow the mask to harden for 5–20 minutes. Once the mask has changed color and is hard, rinse with warm water to remove. Avoid the eye area, nostrils, and lips. Follow with the rest of your skincare routine, including moisturizer to rehydrate. Use 1–3 times per week.
For dry and sensitive skin: Apply a thin layer of the mask to clean face and allow the mask to harden for 5–10 minutes. Once the mask has changed color and is hard, rinse with warm water to remove. Avoid the eye area, nostrils, and lips. Your skin will likely feel dry after rinsing, so promptly follow with the rest of your skincare routine, including moisturizer to rehydrate. Use as needed or as a spot treatment.
Due to the exfoliating factor of the AHAs, the natural astringency of Peppermint essential oil, and the detoxing nature of kaolin clays and activated charcoal, you will likely experience a tingling sensation. Some may even experience pink or red skin directly after use. This is temporary, normal, and means the mask is working.”
This gift is great for a single mother who doesn’t take much time for pampering herself, a friend who isn’t so good with self care, or a colleague who has been suffering some serious setbacks this year. While it’s on the more expensive side for the gifts, it’s so worth the price.
