What is green clay?

Depending on the natural origin of the deposit, it may contain various mineral components, including compounds of silicon, aluminium, iron, calcium, magnesium, potassium and other mineral elements.

Thanks to its fine texture, green clay is particularly convenient for preparing homemade face masks, hair masks, cleansing treatments and cosmetic compresses.

Green clay for blemish-prone skin:

When the skin produces more oil, sebum and impurities can accumulate more easily on its surface. Proper cleansing is therefore an important part of everyday skincare.

A green clay mask can be particularly suitable for people looking for natural skincare for oily skin, combination skin and skin with visible blemishes. The clay absorbs excess sebum and leaves the skin looking visibly cleaner, fresher and more matte.

Important: green clay is a cosmetic raw material intended for external use and should not be considered a treatment for skin diseases.

Green clay for hair and oily scalp:

How to prepare a green clay mask:
