DESCRIPTION:
In the TCM tradition, this mask is vividly named for the colors of its elements: gold pumpkin, amber, carrot and honey; white clay, goat milk, and oats.
Rich in vitamins A and E, the golden-orange pumpkin (Nan Gua in Chinese) is considered a superb detoxifier. Goats’ milk – another super nourisher, as well as a gentle exfoliant – is also known for evening out skin tone. Amber (hu po) is known for its calming effects, internally and externally. Honey and carrot seed oil tighten and rejuvenate tired or dry skin. The effects are instant!
