Why You Should Use Bentonite Clay On Your Hair and Skin
Some years ago I discovered the power of including clay into my hair and skincare regimens. I’ve used Rhassoul, Australian Pink clays, and other Ayurvedic powders for healthy skin and hair, but my favorite has to be Bentonite clay.
I love how versatile Bentonite clay can be. You can use it to deep condition and cleanse your hair, as well as apply it as a face mask.
Normally, I order clay treatments online, but I just happened to be in Whole Foods when I spotted Soap Girl’s Calcium Bentonite Clay.
The clay itself is known for its detoxifying properties as well as clearing up acne and smoothing out your skin’s complexion overall. It produces an electric charge when added to water. NOTE: Avoid stirring your clay mix with metal silverware or using a metal bowl, as it can react with the clay.
After leaving the mask on for 10 minutes, I washed it off with a warm towel, gave my face a cool rise (to close those pores) and that was it. My skin felt so smooth and moisturized.
You can also use the clay on your hair as well. Simply mix it with a liquid like water or aloe vera juice and apply to your hair and scalp. It leaves your hair super moisturized!
