Tips from the Pro’s…AKA I screwed this up five times before I did it right: 

• Allow it to dry COMPLETELY before you try to take it off or it won’t do it’s job
• You can see from the video that I tried to stir too fast and made a mess. Use a deeper bowl and mix slowly!
• Steam your skin beforehand or do this after your shower or cleansing routine. The more open your pores are the better your results will be!
• Seal any leftovers with saran wrap so that you can pest your best friend with it when she gets home…
