1. Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl.
2. You will need around 2 teaspoons of the mixture for your face and throat. When ready to use, add enough liquid to form a spreadable paste. (Use water if your skin is oily, milk for normal skin, and cream for dry skin.)
3. Allow the mixture to thicken for 1 minute, then massage gently into your skin. Rinse with warm water.
4. The dry mixture will keep in the freezer for a year, or in a cool, dry place for 6 months.
