Self-care is all we hear about these days, and why shouldn’t it be? There is no shame in wanting to take better care of yourself and your mental health! While a lot of self-care practices focus on your Mental health and grounding routine, pairing them with some indulgent pampering of your outer skin is also important for overall well-being.
I always say take care of your skin because it's the only place you have to live in, I have previously written posts about facials, etc, but today I will be emphasizing the use and benefits of Mud Masks.

When you look good, you feel good and vice versa, so why is it a crime to want to take care of yourself? People think self-care is selfish but they have no idea what it's like to exhaust yourself continuously for others and even to live daily life without taking a break to care for yourself, trust me it can be very exhausting. I say do it! Practice self-care and self-love at the same time, and do it without giving a damn about what others think, it's your life, it's you living it, they don't know your pain, your struggles, the daily things that drain you, as long as they have no idea of what it feels like to be "YOU", do not let anyone make you feel guilty for taking care of yourself, remember it's all about you and if they have a problem then it's their problem, not yours.
Today I will briefly share one of my favorite Skin Pampering products and if my fingers are still feeling inspired to go on, I will type down some Spiritual Self-Care ideas.
Skincare Routine:
Ever heard of the Dead Sea "Mud Masks"?
Dead Sea Mud is especially known to have anti-bacterial properties. Minerals such as sulfur help to heal and are known for their anti-bacterial benefits, and Magnesium can help improve skin barrier function and reduce inflammation on irritated skin.
One reason I am also loving the fact that people are crazy about Mud masks is that they’ve all but replaced chemical peels and more harsh treatments for a lot of women, and brought the spa treatment back into the home for a less expensive, and more convenient spa experience. I’ve been on a mud mask kick lately to conquer my breakouts especially because of its exfoliating benefits.
We have embraced the natural, soothing benefits mineral-rich mud gives your face and skin all over your body. Mud face masks are a great addition to any routine, it slots perfectly in between your exfoliator and your serum at night-time. Results can be seen instantly in a glowing fresh complexion. The best results can be seen when committing to a regular skincare routine.
Are there any side effects when using mud masks?
As we already know, Mud has healing properties; this is down to its high concentration of minerals.
It may remove impurities from the skin, unclog pores and absorb excess oil however, because of its purifying and detoxifying-like effects, mud masks may be drying to some skin types, such as dry, sun damaged, or combination skin.
They can also irritate sensitive skin types if they’re worn for too long or have additional sensitizing ingredients, like acids or fragrances.
But let me tell you a little more about this brand.

Everything you need for a self-care masking session. A three-piece set that will leave your skin feeling dewy from dusk till dawn.
The multitasking mask purifies, hydrates, and brightens your skin in ten minutes so if you’re hoping to achieve a fresh dewy glow, this face mask is a perfect addition to your skincare routine.

The angled face mask brush makes application a breeze and removing the mask with the Konjac sponge further exfoliates the skin and takes the masking session to the next level.
Lastly, before I go, I would like to give you tips on how to apply your mud mask.
1. To apply your mud mask to your face, use it in the same order you would with other masks.
2. First, remove makeup if you’re wearing any, and wash your face.
3. Next, use clean fingers or a mask brush that is provided in the self-care kit to apply the mud mask to your face. Focus on the areas that are most in need of purification.
4. Wear the facial mask for the time recommended on the label or packaging. This is usually no more than 15 minutes.
5. Rinse off the mask, and pat your skin dry.
6. To finish your routine, follow up with any serum, moisturizer, oil, or SPF (if it’s daytime).
7. To apply mud masks to other areas of your body, such as your arms and legs, you’ll want to apply your mixture to clean your skin.
8. Be careful not to apply it to freshly waxed skin. This may irritate it.
9. Leave the mask on until it hardens, or until the suggested amount of time on the packaging.
Rinse it off, pat dry, and lather your body with a fragrance-free lotion.
