The Product Story

Who would have thought a great complexion was as easy as rubbing some mud on your face? The 100% natural 'Pig-in-Mud' Mineral Mask does just that with its careful blend of mineral rich dry clays. It's a powerful (but non-drying) skin detox that will also tone, revitalise, remove blackheads, reduce pores, smooth rough skin, reduce signs of ageing and recover from breakouts.

Does your skin need some help or just a new lease on life? The Pig-in-Mud Mineral Mask works on normal, oily, combination, dry, mature, sensitive and acne-prone skin to help restore your complexion.

Australian Aboriginals have been using the healing powers of clay for 1000’s of years and now you can too. As much as we love to stick with Australian ingredients we couldn't resist adding the world revered Moroccan Lava Clay into the blend to create the perfect mask.

The Pig in Mud Mineral mask is contains a bunch of skin essential minerals including

• Silica,
• Magnesium
• Iron
• Potassium and
• Calcium

It is a dry powder so you can mix it to the consistency you like (why pay for water and preservatives you don't need!?). Thick or thin, the choice is yours. It also means that you get 100% mask. This makes it better quality and value than premixed masks which leaves your wallet smiling. Don’t worry if you have never mixed up your own mask before because we have a brush and bowl that makes mixing a breeze.

The Pig In Mud Mineral mask is strong enough to budge pesky blackheads and gentle enough for sensitive skin. After just one use your skin will have a new glow and feel amazingly soft.

For Oily and Combination Skin

The original Pig In Mud Mineral Mask will detoxify, cleanse, exfoliate, tone, nourish, strengthen and balance sebum production (sebum is your skin's natural oil and too much sebum can cause breakouts). The anti-oxidant rich Green Tea and Calendula soothe, heal and help repair the damage cause by our harsh environment.

For Normal, Dry and Sensitive Skin (with added anti-ageing power)

For normal, dry and sensitive skin types skin we used extra-gentle pink clays and added anti-ageing goodness into the mask in the form of pomegranate. Pomegranate is one of the 'magic' fruits that are so beneficial for your skin, helping to improve skin's smoothness, elasticity, and overall look. It may also help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and sun damage.

Please note that the brush and bowl are not included in the price of $27.95. They are additional items that you can choose to add to your order.

Directions

Mix equal parts of dry mask and water (see the pro tip below for more mixing options) in a small bowl or your palm (about 1 tsp of each).

Smooth over clean face, using your mask applicator brush or your fingers. Wait until the mask is dry or 10 minutes (whichever is first - start with 5 minutes for sensitive skin) and gently wash off with a warm cloth, pat your skin dry, spritz your tonic and apply the Serum and/or Moisturiser of your choice.

Adjust the mask-to-water ratio to find your ideal consistency (thin tends to work best). Use 1 to 2 times per week.

Patch test before use. External use only.

To keep your mask brush clean you should wash it in warm soapy water or bicarb soda after each use and let it dry in the open air. Ideally you could put it in the sun to ward off nasty bacteria.

Pro Tip

You can change it up a bit by combining the mask with ‘Raindrops on Roses’ Hydrating Tonic, ‘Tickled Pink’ Perfecting Tonic, yoghurt or honey instead of water. Each different mix gives the mask different properties.

Using the mask with dry & sensitive skin

On their own clays have quite strong drawing powers, and even the mask for Normal, Dry & Sensitive skin could be too strong for you. We highly recommend using honey to mix your mask if you have dry or sensitive skin. This will give the mask a restorative and nourishing effect at the same time that it draws toxins away.

Oh no, I have a pimple!

Don’t be alarmed if you get a blemish the following day - this does happen occasionally because of impurities being drawn to the skin’s surface. This is actually a good thing because it means the mask is doing its job. Re-apply a small amount of mask to the problem area.
