Soothe + brighten with berry tea and mineral-rich clay.
Here’s a quick, one-off face mask that feels like a treat but takes less than 10 minutes to make using our TUMBLELEAF Red Berry tea and a scoop of purple or pink clay to create a gentle, glow-boosting mask that’s perfect for tired, dry, or just “meh” skin.
It’s one of those lovely crossover recipes — you brew a cup of tea, drink most of it, and save a little for your face.
What It Does
- Gently brightens with hibiscus and berry antioxidants
- Soothes with rosehip and red fruit botanicals
- Detoxifies with mineral-rich clay
- Smells divine (subtle, fruity, calming)
You’ll Need
- 1 teaspoon TUMBLELEAF Red Berry tea
- 2–3 tablespoons just-boiled water
- 1 teaspoon pink or purple clay (or white kaolin for sensitive skin)
- Optional: a drop of honey or aloe gel for extra hydration
How To Make It
-
Brew your tea
Steep 1 tsp of TUMBLELEAF Red Berry tea in hot water (cover your cup!) for 5–10 minutes. You’ll only need a teaspoon or two of the liquid...the rest is yours to sip. -
Mix the mask
In a small bowl, add 1 tsp of clay. Slowly stir in a few drops of your tea infusion until it forms a smooth paste. Add a tiny drop of honey or aloe if using, or a drop of Lavender essential oil. -
Apply to clean skin
Use fingers or a brush to spread evenly across your face, avoiding eyes and lips. -
Relax for 5–10 minutes
Don’t let it dry to cracking... mist or pat water on if needed.
Rinse & glow
Gently rinse off with warm water and a soft cloth. Follow with balm or serum.
Notes
- This mask is best made fresh and used straight away (because of the water content).
- A patch test is always a good idea if your skin is sensitive.
- Works well as a gentle décolletage or shoulder mask too.
Tumbleseed Tip: Brew double the tea and pop it in the fridge, you’ll have iced tea and a fresh mask base ready to go.
