Forté is a fine balance of naturally occurring clays, botanical extracts, herbs and essential oils that were selected for their exfoliating and skin-loving properties. Ultra-absorbing clays remove dirt, oil and dead skin cells to improve new cell turnover and manage sebum production, while nourishing plant ingredients reduce inflammation, fight free radicals, repair skin and refine texture.
Our customizable mineral masks can be activated with a liquid of choice to cater to your skin’s changing needs.
Directions For Use:
Use in your mindfulness rituals to resurface and improve your skin’s ability to absorb hydration and nutrients. Start by taking a moment to customize your mask. Pay attention to all of your senses as you apply the mask to your skin. Notice the textures and aroma. While you wait for your mask to dry, breathe in and relax your body. Breathe out and calm you mind. Repeat, and let all your stress slip away.
Use once or twice a week as needed. The nonactivated, dry powder form gives you the freedom to customize your mask with a hydrating liquid best suited for your skin’s needs. Try one of our activation blends designed to give you targeted results, or create your own blend. Coconut milk and flower hydrosols such as rose and chamomile are ideal for dry, irritated and mature skin. Witch Hazel, apple cider vinegar and astringent green tea are great options for treating breakouts and oily skin. Water is a safe choice for all skin types.
Mixing instructions: Use only non-metallic mixing bowls, spoons and containers. Activate mask by combining 1 TBSP of powder with 1 TBSP of liquid, adding liquid gradually until powder becomes a smooth paste, not too runny and not too thick (adjust quantities as needed). Use your fingertips or a soft make-up brush to apply all over face (avoid eye area), neck and décolleté. Use warm water and a wash cloth to remove gently, without rubbing or pulling on the skin. Product may tingle initially and you may feel a pulling sensation as mask begins to dry. Remove mask before it dries completely. Use warm water and a wash cloth to remove gently, without pulling or rubbing on the skin.
Conduct a patch test to check for sensitivities. If you are pregnant, nursing or planning on becoming pregnant, always consult with your doctor before trying any new products.
