Product description

A fine and luxurious representative of cosmetic clays is the French clay also called Montmorillonite, after the city of its discovery. Like other clays, this type of cosmetic clay is rich in minerals such as calcium, silica, iron, manganese, potassium and sodium. This clay is particularly useful for cleansing the skin, as it contains negatively charged particles that can easily attract positively charged impurities.

In addition to effectively cleansing the skin, which is also appreciated by problematic or acne-prone skin, it helps tighten pores. It can improve texture and add softness to products in paste form. It does not dissolve in water or oils, but is miscible with water. Montmorillonite is usually used up to 50% of the total weight of the product.

The clays are miscible with water and insoluble in oils. It is suitable for normal to oily skin.

Cosmetic clays have been used for thousands of years to soothe, treat and cleanse the skin. They are purely natural and very easy to use for everyone.
