Clay has been used for centuries for cosmetic use and are present in many traditional beauty regimens.
Clay has several cosmetic and therapeutic properties: anti aging, antioxidant, drying, astringent, reconstructive, antiseptic and detoxifying among others.
They can be applied to the face, body and even hair. In the latter case, it controls oiliness and dandruff of the scalp.
They also can be used as a 100% natural colorant for soaps and lotions.
Some of the most popular uses are:
facial and body masks and scrubs
soap making
balms to alleviate skin conditions, burns and insect bites
body wraps
bath salts
body powders
Cosmetic clay are made up of different mineral contents and each clay type has a different effect on the skin. Regular use of clay facials will remove dead skin cells, improve circulation to the skin, remove debris from the pores and bring about a smooth healthy glow. Each clay has the ability to absorb toxins from the skin but they differ in their level of absorption.
Purple Clay
Because it is rich in magnesium and other minerals, it contributes to the formation of collagen, which is essential to keep the skin looking younger, improves muscle tone, texture and skin firmness. Its rejuvenating, detoxifying and tensing effect leaves the skin beautiful, fresh and renewed.
Purple Clay is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and tired skin.
FOR SOAPS - I use about 1 tsp of clay for 1 lb. of fats in the recipe, you can add more or less depending on the results you want, if you add too much clay the soap may reach trace too quickly or reach false trace. There are a few ways to add clay into the soap: adding the dry clay into soap at trace for CP, mix with the superfat and add it after the soap is cooked for HP, some people mix it into the lye water.
They are sold in sealed and re-sealable pouches, the most environmentally friendly option I have found.
