Default homemade Mud Wash (likeTerressentials)

Hey girls
I was about to order my first bottle of Terressentials Mud wash. But I had a thought. Before paying $30 bucks for product and shipping is this something I can Make myself?
So what do you think? Has anyone ever tried to make thier own mud wash?

Of course, just some bentinote clay with some Aloe vera juice and there you go. Sometimes I would add honey or an oil but today I just used the juice, the clay and a bit of avc.

Defintely trying this. I just need to get the avg. I will probably add whatever oils I have, water and a little coconut milk.

I used bentonite and avj and it worked well. The teresentials add some extracts as well. I plan on ordering those and trying my hand at an exact replica for myself. If you go to the site you can see the exact ones they use. If I recall its chamomile, horestail, nettle, and some others.

I've added tea tree, peppermint, and rosemary essential oils to mine, I love the tingly feeling it gives my scalp.

I went shopping today and got my stuff. I made a mix and it is sitting in my hair as I type. I used
3 tbs of bentonite clay
1 Tbs olive oil
1 Tsp joboba oil
1/2 tsp lavender oil
enough AVJ to mix it into a pancake batter consistancy

I started of by doing a ACV rinse and then applied the mud mix to my hair section by section making sure to rub it into my scalp and through my hair. I then covered my hair with a shower cap and will let it sit for 30 to 60 minutes. I will then rinse it out and put my hair in big twist to dry over night. Depending on how my hair feels tomorrow, I might repeat the process and deep condition or not.

So I just got out the shower. My hair is dripping wet and I have not added any other products yet. My hair feels clean and lite. It smells wonderful and feels very soft and moisterize. The curl definition is cray. It looks like I just got a straw set. My hair looks full and thick (I have very fine limp hair normally). I am loving the results. I want to twist it up so it can dry while I sleep but I can't stop touching it. Did I mention that I didn't even bother to detangle it. I just ran my fingers through it when I was rinsing it in the shower.
