Clay is a sedimentary rock, extremely rich in minerals and trace elements. If green clay is by far the best known of all clays, there are nevertheless other clay colors with amazing benefits. Did you know that each clay color has its own properties? Red, pink, yellow, white, ghassoul… Each is aimed at a particular skin type. We offer you a quick overview of the different clays.

Green clay is recommended for normal to oily skin. Thanks to its absorbent power, it eliminates excess sebum, purifies the epidermis and visibly reduces dilated pores.

White clay, also called kaolin, is the softest of the clays. It is particularly recommended for dull and mature skin that it will gently clean and sublimate.

Red clay is famous for its ” complexion illuminator “, and if it is also called ” clay looks good “, it’s not for nothing ! Thanks to its richness in ferric oxides that gives it its fiery color, it will take care of dry skin, soften it and reveal its radiance.

Pink clay, a subtle mixture of red clay and white clay, is appreciated by sensitive and reactive skin because it is soft and respects the pH of the epidermis. It has soothing and rebalancing properties, ideal for skin prone to redness and irritation of all kinds.

Yellow clay, less known, is a clay particularly suitable for combination skin thanks to its exfoliating action. It revitalizes, matifies and refines the skin texture, for a silky touch and a visibly smoother skin, with fewer imperfections.

Finally, ghassoul clay is a treasure from the Atlas Mountains. It has many properties that make it perfect for absolutely all skin types. It is renowned for its absorbent and cleansing action but also exfoliating and adsorbent. We quickly understand why it is an integral part of the hammam ritual!

[title text=”Do not let your clay mask dry” tag_name=”h2″]

One of the mistakes to avoid and yet is practiced by many lovers of clay masks, is to let your mask dry. It is sometimes thought that you have to wait until the mask is completely dry to remove it and rinse the skin. It’s a mistake. Indeed, by drying, the mask captures water in the skin tissues and dehydrates them. One can have a very clean skin sensation after rinsing because the epidermis shines and is perfectly smooth. However, this interpretation is not good: it is a sign that the skin is simply dried out, dehydrated. This is ultimately the opposite of what a clay mask should bring to the skin! Even worse, by drawing water from the epidermis, the dry clay may send a negative signal to the sebaceous glands and cause them to produce even more sebum.

To avoid this, it is necessary to apply the mask in a thick layer on the entire face, avoiding the eye area. The mask should act for 10 minutes and not dry. For this, we recommend that you remoisten it as many times as necessary using a mist, water spray or floral water.

[title text=”It is necessary to moisturize your skin well after rinsing” tag_name=”h2″]

After a clay mask, it is important to moisturize your skin. Due to its absorbent properties, the hydrolipidic film of the epidermis can be slightly altered and it must be helped to reconstitute itself by applying a nourishing care. Rinsing alone is not enough, especially if it is done with tap water that is sometimes too calcareous and aggressive for the skin.

Depending on the nature of your skin, you can choose a product with a more or less rich texture. Our day cream and our night cream are perfect for nourishing and moisturizing the skin in depth. Poorly hydrated skin becomes sensitive and reactive and the mask loses all its interest.

[title text=”Do not use metal or plastic to handle clay” tag_name=”h2″]

Clay is a recognized and highly appreciated material for facial treatments. If at first glance its use does not require any precautions, it must be taken into account that it is an active and living ingredient.

For example, opt for a jar or bowl either ceramic or glass, to make the preparation and take your hands or a wooden spoon to mix the ingredients. Plastic and metal, on the other hand, should never be used, as they denature green clay and can alter its properties.

[title text=”Clay can be combined with many ingredients” tag_name=”h2″]

Do you want a tailor-made facial adapted to a particular problem? Good news, the clay mask offers a thousand and one possibilities. Whether you want to use essential oils, vegetable oils, floralwaters, fruits, vegetables or any other ingredient withrecognized properties (as long as it is natural and preferably organic), you can give free rein to your imagination for the preparation of a clay mask.

How to use powdered clay?

how-use-clay-powder

Clay is a natural material appreciated for its many benefits since the dawn of time. Thanks to its rich composition minerals and trace elements,its uses are multiple, both for the face, the body, the hair, but also for the maintenance of the house and the care of the animals. If it is now possible to find it in different forms such as ready-to-use dough or as a component of patented cosmetics, powdered clay is by far the most widely used form in the world. However, in order to fully benefit from its virtues, it is essential to know how to use it and to know the mistakes to avoid.

[title text=”CHOOSE THE CLAY’S GRANULOMETRY BASED ON ITS USE” tag_name=”h2″]

Clay is a raw material, originating from the Earth, whose shape is very heterogeneous. Once extracted and worked, it is offered under different granulometry depending on its different uses. What is granulometry? This is the size of the clay grains, which can vary in coarse grains or pieces of 2cm of very (very) small grains (powder) of 20 microns. Here’s a little recap of our different granulometry and their use.

Face and hair masks

To pamper your skin and regain a soft and silky hair, clay is a treatment of choice that will never cease to surprise you. Whether you’re a fan of zero waste care or just looking for a treatment that’s both natural and effective, we have good news: making your clay mask has never been easier!

To do this, we advise you to use our ultra-ventilated clays. In the form of grains of about 20 microns, the ultra-ventilated clay takes a form of velvety and light powder. Thanks to the fineness of its grain, this clay is ideal for the preparation of clay masks (face and hair) or for use in bath water because it melts instantly. With it, exit the lumps and hello to the smooth and homogeneous dough.

Surf clay also has an interesting granulometry. The fineness of its grains – 60 microns, allows it to melt very quickly on contact with water or any other thinner. All you have to do is stir the dough for a few seconds to get a smooth treatment.

Cataplasms and plasters

If there are different colors of clay, green clay powder is by far the most used (and most effective!) when used in cataplasm or plaster. In this case, it is important to clearly define the area on which you want to apply a cataplasm and how often you want to apply it. Depending on these elements, and in order to make the care the most economical while remaining as practical as possible to prepare, you can turn to the granulometry below:

Fine ground clay (between 0.05 and 0.5 mm): The clay is in the form of rather coarse raw powder. It melts instantly and allows a smooth paste without difficulty.
Granulated clay (0.5 mm): in the form of grains of about 8 mm, the granulated clay melts in 30 minutes and therefore requires a preparation time.
Crushed clay (2 cm): the clay is raw, in the form of irregular pieces. It takes 2 hours for it to melt evenly. We recommend preparing the dough the day before, or in the morning for the evening, so that the dough is as homogeneous as possible. This is the most economical format but requires a longer preparation time.

One of the many advantages of powdered clay is that it can be combined with other ingredients (preferably natural and organic), for complete and targeted care. There are a thousand and one possibilities! These ingredients can include powders, fruits, vegetables, all kinds of food ingredients (honey, cornflour, yoghurt…) and even liquids such as vegetable oils, essential oils or hydrolats.

[title text=”DIY recipes with powdered clay”]

There are a multitude of homemade recipes allowing you to make a clay-based mask according to the needs of your skin or hair at a T moment.

Add vegetable oil such as sweet almond or rose rose oil and you’ll have a nourishing and moisturizing 100% natural combo. As a bonus, this trick will allow you to keep your mask wet longer.

Some even add essential oils to their clay powder, but beware, the clay has a cloaking power and can therefore keep the essential oil as “under bell” on the skin and this can cause burns. Be careful when you embark on a combination of clay and essential oil, and choose a non-dermocaustic essential oil (which do not contain phenols irritating molecules.). Another option to enjoy both your favorite essential oils and your fetish green clay is to proceed in two steps :

Make your green clay cataplasm (without essential oil in the mixture); leave it in place for 1 to 2 hours then rinse and dry.
Apply in a second time the essential oil of your choice diluted in a vegetable oil (see dosage on the bottle) in modeling.

Always take the tether of a health professional before using essential oils.

I mean, good news! Powdered clay is compatible with all kinds of ingredients that you can easily find in your kitchen (placards and fridge!), such as fruits and vegetables (especially in the form of juice), yoghurt, honey, sugar, cornflour… for even more targeted and comprehensive actions. This allows you to use products with (very) short expiry dates and thus limit waste!

[title text=”The diluants”]

Powder clay can be used for various cosmetic and personal hygiene treatments. Instead of mineral water, you can associate it with a hydrolat (pink water for example) for a synergy action.

[title text=”CHOOSE YOUR CLAY POWDER COLOUR” tag_name=”h2″]

There are different clay colors, each of which has its own properties. To appreciate all the benefits, it is therefore essential to choose the color of clay according to your skin type.

Green clay is the best known of all, it is applied to all skin types and is appreciated oily skin on which it will have a strong absorption power and will regulate excess sebum.
Yellow clay,with exfoliating powers, is intended for mixed skins.
Red clay is ideal for dry skin, which will soften and illuminate.
White clay – also called kaolin, is the softest of clays. It is intended for dull skins that it will lighten and sublimate.
Pink clay is a subtle blend of red clay and white clay, perfect for sensitive and reactive skin that needs to be gently soothed and cleaned.
Less well known, there is also Ghassoul clay, which is used for all skin types and allows a deep cleansing of the skin.

[title text=”DO NOT USE METAL UTENSILS OR CONTAINERS” tag_name=”h2″]

One of the mistakes you shouldn’t make when you want to use powdered clay is a PRIMORDIALE one: avoid any utensils or metal or plastic containers when handling this land of benefits.

I don’t know why. Because clay is a land of life, it reacts when it comes into contact with metal or plastic. These two materials can alter the properties of clay and thus limit its action on your skin and/or hair.

If you want to enjoy the virtues of powdered clay and make your own clay paste, we recommend using a wooden spoon as well as a wooden, sandstone or glass bowl.

As you will have understood, powdered clay offers you a multitude of possibilities, it allows you an easy, efficient and economical care, which you can achieve on the go. Lack of inspiration? Find all our recipes for clay masks!

[title text=”DON’T LET THE CLAY DRY” tag_name=”h2″]

When pausing a mask, plaster or clay cataplasm, it is imperative to keep the clay moist for the duration. The active ions of clay wake up on contact with water and this is how they transmit all their benefits to you. When clay dries on your skin, it loses one of its most important abilities: that of releasing its minerals and trace elements. However, it continues to absorb, and this can lead to a drying of the epidermis after a certain period of time. So to do well, think about regularly rehumidifying or removing the clay as soon as the tug-of-arms is felt!
