We bring to your attention French-made clays that differ in their mineral composition and effect on the skin.
White clay (Kaolin) – has effective cleansing properties, suitable for all skin types, even sensitive skin. The natural effectiveness is due to its chemical structure. In solution, clay traps positively charged molecules, such as mineral salts, and can exchange them when it hits the skin. Clay remineralizes and removes toxins and impurities from the epidermis, replacing them with mineral salts, and also brightens the skin.
Can be used in cleansers, detoxifying products, oxygen skin care products.
Green clay (Montmorillonite, Illite) – rich in minerals and trace elements, ideal for all skin types, stimulates natural protection.
