I was shocked at how great a mask this papaya makes with just the addition of some rose water. My pores virtually disappeared! Smells pleasant, and a great price.

I nearly burst into tears when I saw such a wonderful price for this! I was dying to find a place with lots of extracts for me to use in my lotion, and now I have found one! And close to home to! No more having things shipped across the border and getting slammed with fees! Hurrah!

A clay mask with a pinch of papaya extract makes miracles : your skin is toned, refreshed and renewed. If you do not want to look tired, try a papaya extract mask and you will see a great difference in your appearance.

I am in the process of testing this Papaya Extract Powder for one of my dry facials. Let me tell you the fragrance is so yummy. And I am excited about how it is effecting my aging skin. I love it and am eager to present it to my customers in the Fall this year.
