Apply the Mask: Using clean fingers or a brush, apply an even layer of the mask to your face, avoiding the eye area.
Let It Sit: Allow the mask to sit for 10-15 minutes. Don’t let it dry completely, as this can overly dry out the skin.
Rinse Off: Rinse the mask off with warm water, gently massaging in circular motions to exfoliate the skin. Pat your face dry with a clean towel.
Moisturize: Follow up with a moisturizer to lock in hydration.

Use this mask 1-2 times per week.
If you have sensitive skin, do a patch test before applying the mask to your face.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often can I use a neem face mask?
Begin with once a week. More frequent use is not automatically better, especially when the formula also contains clay.
Can neem powder be combined with kaolin clay?

What can I mix with the dry powders?
Use clean water, rosewater or another suitable water-based cosmetic ingredient immediately before application. Do not store an unpreserved wet mask.
Should I patch test a neem mask?
Yes. Patch test the finished mixture on a small area and stop using it if irritation occurs.
