Beginner Body Mask Formula for Radiant and Clear Skin

For those new to making skincare products and looking for a body mask formula to help achieve radiant, clear, and smooth skin, you can try this basic formula. This formula focuses on key ingredients: clay and skin-brightening actives.

Ingredients (for 100g):

  • Phase 1 (Liquid):
    • Water (Distilled or Deionized): 58g
    • Glycerine: 5g
    • Extreme-B3™ (Vitamin B3): 5g
    • Alpha Arbutin (Switzerland): 2g
  • Phase 2 (Powder):
    • Kaolin (China Clay, 300nm): 30g

Instructions:

  1. In a clean container, combine Water, Glycerine, and Extreme-B3™. Stir until dissolved.
  2. Ensure the liquid mixture is below 30°C. Then add Alpha Arbutin and stir until completely dissolved. Check the pH to be between 3.5-6.5.
  3. In a separate container, weigh the Kaolin.
  4. Gradually pour the liquid mixture (Phase 1) into the Kaolin (Phase 2) little by little, stirring continuously until a smooth, lump-free mask paste is formed.
  5. Important Note: Add a suitable preservative according to the supplier's instructions. Mix well.
  6. Store in a clean, airtight container.

How to Use:

Apply a generous layer of the mask to clean, dry body skin. Leave on for about 10-15 minutes or until dry, then rinse thoroughly with clean water. Use 1-2 times per week.

This is a basic formula for beginners. You can adjust or add other beneficial ingredients as you gain more experience.
