There is ample evidence that people have been using clay for centuries to improve the health of their skin and hair, and for very good reason.
In this video, Sarette from Aesthetically Sarette demonstrates how to properly use a clay face mask, as well as the benefits of doing so regularly.
A top quality clay mask will be made up of a variety of clays, each with its own unique properties and benefits. So here are the top 10 benefits of using a clay mask:
1. CLEAR YOUR SKIN
Clay has a natural ability to draw out toxins, which means when applied as a mask directly to your skin, it can help unclog your pores and give your skin a brighter look.
2. BALANCE SEBUM
Clay masks will help absorb oil from your skin and can prevent mild forms of acne, such as pimples, blackheads and whiteheads. These types of acne form when your pores are clogged with excessive dirt and oil.
3. BOOSTS COLLAGEN PRODUCTION
Our clay mask contains Baobab Powder Extract which is fantastically restorative as well as collagen boosting and anti-ageing; It is very high in Vitamin C which will help to tighten and tone your skin, as well as brighten and lift your complexion.
4. REDUCE FINE LINES & WRINKLES
The high Vitamin C content (compliments of the Baobab power house) plumps the skin, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and restore radiance.
5. SOFTENS & SMOOTHS SKIN
The white Kaolin Clay in our face mask is delicate and gentle and serves to help soften and smooth skin. Because of its gentle properties it is suitable for even sensitive skin types. It gently detoxifies without drying your skin. It promotes cell regeneration as well as helping to bring a healthy and glowing look to dull and tired skin.
6. REDUCES IRRITATION
Pink Kaolin Clay is also included in our face mask, making it suitable for dry and sensitive skins. It helps to reduce irritation and inflammation from aggravating skin conditions such as acne.
7. IMPROVES SKIN ELASTICITY
Kaolin clays are rich in Silica, which may help to improve skin elasticity and cell renewal for supple, younger looking skin.
8. MILD & GENTLE EXFOLIATOR
Both white and pink kaolin clay are key ingredients in our mineral face mask powder and are very gentle, mildly exfoliating and light on the skin; once the mask has been on your face for about 10 minutes you can dampen it and then gently rub it around with light circular motions to give your face a gentle exfoliation. These clays help to remove impurities such as dead skin cells, excess oil, toxins and dirt, leaving the skin silky soft and smooth.
9. HELPS PREVENT BREAKOUTS
These clays can also help to tighten and tone skin as well as minimise blackheads and promote a radiant and balanced complexion. Larger pores mean more accumulation of oil, which can, in turn, make an environment perfect for nurturing bacteria and eventually result in breakouts and skin that is more prone to acne. The regular use of our clay mask can help avoid all this and make your skin less prone to acne.
10. BOOSTS CELL REGENERATION
Neroli and Myrrh Essential oils boost the natural process of cell regeneration, helping to fade scars & spots and reduce acne breakouts and skin irritations. In addition they help to rejuvenate & brighten skin, promoting smooth, youthful-looking skin.
11. 100% NATURAL & CRUELTY-FREE
Okay I know I said 10, but this one is one of the most important points so I just had to include it.
The Cherish Natural Restorative Mineral Face Mask is 100% natural and cruelty-free. It is also packaged in glass, making it an excellent eco-friendly choice as well.
