Earth’s Biggest Gift to Beauty

“I couldn’t believe my eyes after I washed off the mask. I went to the grocery store this morning, and the cashier complimented me on my beautiful complexion.

When I first put it on, my skin literally pulsated. It was like I could feel all the goo coming out of my pores. And after I washed it away, it looked like I’d washed a little age off my face, too.

I’ve found my new beauty secret! It’s different than anything I’ve ever tried. And I love that it doesn’t have any chemicals in it.”

Sierra exfoliates, nourishes and hydrates your skin.

That’s what one of my employees, Tiffany, told me. She’d tried just about every type of facial mask on the market looking for a way to brighten up her skin. But the results never seemed to last for more than a day, at most. That is … until she tried my Sierra Nourishing Clay Mask.

So, what does this have to do with beautiful skin? Pretty much everything.

Cleopatra’s Beauty Secret…Only Better

Cleopatra… just her name makes me think “beautiful.”

It’s widely written that she took baths in milk and used natural mixtures of honey and aloe on her skin. What’s less well-known is that she also used clay for her complexion.

The kinds of clay found in Egypt are “bentonite” clays. They contain volcanic ash and other elements. But most of what they’re made of is a kind of clay now called montmorillonite. It’s named after the town in France where it was first identified…
