We are used to buy a shampoo & a conditioner all in one, it is very easy and handy. But how about to have it for your skin - all in one – to clean, detox, feed and tone your skin without having one jar with cleanser, one with a toner and another one with moisutriser.Would you like to know?When I had a very dry and dehydrated skin (all cleansers irritated my skin), a friend of mine brought me from Morocco a jar with a clay, Rhassoul clay. She told me that clay has been used around the world for centuries by indigenous people as an important medicinal and cosmetic tool. It is now becoming increasingly popular treatment for many different health and skincare conditions.
There are different ranges of clays.
Some clays, such as Bentonite clay, are primarily ingested for medicinal purposes such as detoxification or mineral deficiencies. Others, such as French Green clay and Rhassoul clay, are used to absorb excess oil, dirt, and toxins from the skin while simultaneously exfoliating and improving skin circulation.
Clays come in a variety of colors such as red, green, white, gray, and can range in texture from coarse and heavy to fine and fluffy. The different colors of clays occur because of their natural mineral content.
My favorite is Rhassoul clay, I use it as a cleanser for my face, body and hear, as a mask and also a body wrap.
Rhassoul clay is truly exquisite Spa quality clay from ancient deposits unearthed from the fertile Atlas Mountains of Morocco where it has been used for over 1400 years as a skin conditioner, soap, and shampoo. This clay has a long history, and was used in ancient Rome and Egypt by those of nobility.
Because of the high mineral content, astringent properties, and absorption properties, Rhassoul clay is a wonderful and effective clay for cleansing, detoxification, and for general skin care treatments.
In clinical tests, Rhassoul has been shown to be effective on skin elasticity, clogged pores, removes dead skin layers, removed surface oil from skin, improves skin clarity and appearance, and reduces flakiness and dryness of both the scalp and skin.
French Green Clay
Mined from bedrock quarries in France, it is sun-dried, completely natural, unscented, and fragrance free. Green clay is a bio-mineral, and contains decomposed plant matter as well as many trace minerals, such as: silica, aluminum, magnesium, calcium, iron, phosphorus, sodium, potassium, copper, zinc, selenium, cobalt, manganese, phosphorous, silicon, micro-algaes, kelp, and phyto-nutrients.
Green Clay has analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties which make it beneficial for muscular pain, swelling, and arthritic or rheumatic conditions.
After using French Green clay, skin feels fresh, smooth, radiant, and soft. French Green Clay is also marvelous for helping to clear problem skin areas, and is gentle enough to use weekly, or even daily on problem spots.
White Cosmetic clay
White Cosmetic clay (also Kaolin clay) is one of the most versatile clays, and is also the mildest of all cosmetic clays. It is commonly found in skincare preparations and cosmetics because of its gentle nature, mineral content, absorbent properties, and ability to “fix” scents. White clay is made up of fine clay particles, and has a lightweight fluffy consistency.
