Sun goddesses, this one’s for you. I wanted to end my Caribbean journey in the most relaxing way possible – with a simple skin soothing treatment you can try out this weekend. I picked up the recipe for this sweet treatment, the “Sun Downer” while at the Hotel Le Toiny’s spa. It’s a refreshing body mask with green clay, aloe vera, mint & melon, and perfect to use as we ease out of Summer. Of course, it’s also a great treatment to do right before you jet off to your destination wedding! Plus, it helps to reduce redness, hydrates and reinvigorates your skin. Sigh…
Skin soothing DIY cantaloupe mask
Step 1) Puree half of a medium sized cantaloupe.
Step 2) Mix cantaloupe with half cup of powdered green clay. Add 4 tablespoons of mint + aloe oil.
Step 3) Apply and leave on until clay hardens, about 30 mins.
Step 4) Rinse thoroughly!
This treatment is so easy and you can find all these ingredients at your local market! Try it out this weekend if you’re so inclined and let me know how much you loved it. I hope you enjoyed our Caribbean adventure and hope it inspires you to take a trip somewhere exotic.

Jillian
