: The darkest color I will reserve judgement for tomorrow, but the
: orangiest colored test was the finger with the new skin tied with
the
: finger that has the mask stuff.
I hadn't noticed any difference in color with or without the mask.
Funny that it ties with newskin-that stuff has clove in it, which
helps the color. Could be the mask is a safe alternative to those
with clove allergies?
: The face mask gel is difficult to
: work with; its really really heavy and tends to take forever to dry
: compaired with New Skin.
That's why I recommend a hair dryer and putting on the mask as thin
as possible.
: However, its really easy to remove!
Isn't that the fun part! Kind of like peeling sunburned skin...
: Lastly
: upon inspiration I looked at the contents of the mask gel. Low and
: behold.....the first listed content was water! So, in a seperate
: container I mixed some gel with water to thin it out and make it
: easier to apply. (Initially I used a small tipped henna bottle to
: apply the gel) I mixed about 50/50 mix and hennaed a little flower
: boquet on the ball of my left hand. I then waited for the henna to
: dry, and when it was mostly dry, I applied the new water/gel mix
with
: a cotton ball just as you would if you were applying the
lemon/sugar
: mix. WOW I THINK I FOUND THE PERFECT SOLUTION TO COVER YOUR DESIGNS
: WITH!! I will experiment more in the next few days, but things look
: great!!!
This is EXACTLY what this page is for! Honing of ideas, improving
methods, and sharing information-I think I'll go mix some clove oil
into a 50/50 mask/water mix and see what happens!
Too bad we can't patent these ideas....:->
