Why This Clay
This green clay is an ancient volcanic marine clay, valued for the oligoelements and mineral salts it naturally contains. Sun drying and air ventilation are used to produce a clay of the purest quality and greatest surface area, which is part of why it's regarded as effective for cleansing and toning.
How To Use It
Add 1 cup of green clay to half a cup of spring water and stir until smooth and creamy. Using a small spatula, apply the mask evenly over your face and forehead, and leave to set for 20 minutes. Wash off with cool water or a wet face towel, then apply a coconut oil moisturiser to dry skin. It can also be used for foot baths, body baths or detox programs. Store in a cool, dry, dark place with the lid securely fastened.
Who It Suits
This is a good option if you want a simple, single-ingredient clay for DIY face masks, foot baths or body treatments rather than a pre-mixed product with added ingredients. For more from the same brand, browse the Eden Healthfoods collection, or see our wider personal care range.
