Clay has traditionally been used to draw out impurities through absorption. Composed of silica, iron, magnesium, calcium, sodium, zinc and other minerals that bind environmental toxins while removing old sebum that may be clogging your pores.

Perfection: Clay Mix is a flawless blend of my two favorite clays. Montmorillonite—Green Clay—is both antiseptic and healing. Derived from volcanic deposits, it is by far the richest in mineral composition. It energizes the connective tissue with gentle stimulation and is effective in promoting lymphatic drainage and circulation, increasing the flow of oxygen and speeding the elimination of wastes. Rhassoul clay's most impressive property is its unique absorption capacity, due to its high level of ionic exchange. This makes it the most gentle of all clays and is used to smooth and improve even dry skin. It has been used for over 12 centuries in North Africa, South Europe and The Middle East.
Perfection: Sense & Sensitivity Clay: If you thought that dry, dehydrated or sensitive skin should not use clay, here is your chance to give it a try. The Perfection Sense & Sensitivity Clay uses a blend of french red clay, Kaolin, Rhassoul and herbs to create a pore-refining mask suitable for sensitive skin. Remember, all clay masques work by bringing more circulation to the surface of the skin, so don't be alarmed if you have some "redness" following your treatment. It is only increased circulation and with subside shortly.
NEW! Perfection: Clear Complexion Clay (with activated charcoal): Finally, you asked for it and we deliver...a clay specially designed to get you through you breakouts by drawing out toxins and encouraging blood flow to your problem areas! We took the high-quality clays and herbs that refine your pores and nourish your skin and added activated charcoal for a deep detoxification. Beware: This intense mask will really draw out impurities. I recommend keeping it moist and leaving it on for 5-7 minutes. Clear Complexion Clay will stain clothing and/or washcloths.
To use Any clay as a spot treatment: mix a pinch of clay mixture with equal part water and form a paste in your palm. You may want to add 1 small drop of an essential oil (such as geranium for blemishes or lavender with sensitive clay for sunburns) Dot onto problem spot or area. Leave on overnight, or allow to dry & remove with a damp cloth. This is also great for insect bites and stings.
To use as a facial masque (about 1x/week): mix 2 scoops any Clay Mix with 3 scoops water water, herbal tea (fennel, chamomile, rose, etc.) or aloe juice to make a smooth paste. Sometimes I add a pinch of Sow Your Wild Oats or a drop of the women’s vitality blend. Lightly apply over damp/wet skin. I think it is best to lie down with a damp/wet washcloth over my face and witch hazel pads over my eyes for 10 minutes before I remove the masque, but you can experiment—try letting it dry if you love that tight feeling (it’s certainly better for you than other ways of getting that tiny-pore look!) and press with a damp cloth just before you are about to take it off.
