This recipe is lots of fun to make and use with children. They will love mixing and smashing the soft fruit into a pulp, not to mention smearing the messy concoction across their little faces. Make sure to keep childhood allergies in mind when picking the ingredients for this recipe, as some kids are allergic to certain fruits and berries.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon White Kaolin Clay
- 1 tablespoon Oat Flour, Fine
- 1 tablespoon Whole Milk Powder or Coconut Milk Powder
- Soft Fruit or Berries: Kiwis, Bananas, Raspberries, Blackberries, Strawberries, Grapes
Directions
In a small mixing bowl, combine 1 teaspoon each of White Kaolin Clay, Oat Flour, and Powdered Milk. Add 3 – 4 tablespoons of fruit (choppped so that it will mash easily), and a few drops of water. Give your child a large spoon or spatula to mash with and let them go to town, squishing the fruit and powders together into a beautiful mess. Carefully apply the mixture to your faces, avoiding the eyes, mouth, and nostrils. Allow the mask to dry for 5 – 10 minutes, then gently wipe off the mixture with a moist washcloth. Rinse your faces well, than apply any toner or moisturizer you like. Be sure to take some pictures of your mini spa day. You'll look adorable with matching fruity faces.

Thanks, Brady! Im glad you liked the recipe.
I love these. Really I do. I cant wait for more. Could this perhaps be a weekly thing? One of my favorite past times is going on IMDB and hitting up the trivia pages. This is like my movie trivia heroin fix.

Huh, sounds like fun. I love this home-made facial masks, they’re way better then the ones in shops… and of course, they’re less expensive 😛 I’m definitely gonna try this!
