NOW Solutions, European Clay Powder, Pure Powder for a Detox Facial Cleansing Mask, 6-Ounce

This clay is very high quality and I will be purchasing it again. I used this for a clay mask as well as an internal detox with clay water and it works very well. My face got fery red but this is due to the increased blood flow to my face. Make sure you have a good facial moisturizer to use after you remove the clay mask because it really dries everything out. I cannot reccommend this to anyone else for internal use simply because everyone needs to do his or her own research, but it worked well for me. The taste is not bad and the texture is very fine. I'll be buying this product again.

I purchased this to use as a face mask. For a long time, I used bentonite clay. However, I find it to be too drying and my skin is just way too sensitive for bentonite. After reading tons of reviews on all the best clays, I settled on this one. I DEFINITELY prefer it over bentonite. It doesn't pull stuff out as well as benny clay, but it's soooo much gentler on my skin. It still does work to clear pores, but it is a slightly slower process compared to bentonite. The BEST feature about this, though, is that you don't need to mix it with apple cider vinegar. I don't mind mixing benny clay and ACV, but it's so much more convenient to be able to mix this with water. It forms a great paste. I use equal parts clay and water (sometimes more water is necessary). I only use about a half-tablespoon, as I don't think this mask needs to be super thick on your face to get the job done. Apply all over or in troubled areas, wait for upwards of 45 mins (I like it to be VERY dry before taking it off, although that's not everyone's preference and drying time depends on the thickness/wetness of the mix), and then rinse off. Your face will be red where the mask was, but that's totally fine. However, if you experience itching, swelling, or discomfort after removal, there may be an issue and you should stop using. Love this stuff! I like doing a mask weekly and it exfoliates and cleans my skin really well!

I use this to make handmade facial masks - roughly equal thirds colloidal oatmeal, clay, and honey, with water added to make a paste. I chose this because of the brand, as well as the plastic jar package which makes it easy to store in the bathroom, keep dry, and easily use when needed. It meets all these needs well. The NOW brand has never let me down.

I have combination skin and I use a clay mask twice a week to help with oil control and to do a deep clean. Overall, this is a good clay mask, an option to try if you like to make your own mask. Preparation: I find that 1 tablespoon clay and a tablespoon water (as instructed by the packaging) yields they a very thick mask (see picture). I prefer to use less than a tablespoon of clay with more than a tablespoon of water to get the right consistency and quantity for me, The clay mixes easily with water. Application: This clay is slippery and very tricky; if you get a too thick consistency it's very hard to spread on the face, if it's a little too watery you get an uneven application. Wear: The clay doesn't really dry out completely (even if I only use just water) so it's not uncomfortable while it's on the face. It also doesn't leave dust all over the house if I move around while wearing it. Cleaning: Some clay masks are very hard to remove, but this one just glides of the face. But I always remove clay masks in the shower. Dryness: After & remove it my skin is not left dessert dry, like some clay mask do. But for very dry skin it's still worth mixing it with an face oil. Cleaning: In terms of removing impurities, I would say it only removes 80% of impurities. It also dries out some pimples. Since it yields a thick but somewhat slippery consistency, I think it would also be great for wraps.

Really like this mask. I bought the sensitive skin version (even better!). Skin may be a little red after rinsing but fades within 10 mins. Great for spot treatments too.

Super recommended!

This is definitely not a weak mask, or for those with sensitive skin. My skin is fairly sensitive, and I couldn't leave it on until it fully dried. It became very itchy and burned a bit. Right after i washed it off my face became bright red! Looks like I have a splotchy sunburn. However, it has calmed down a little bit. I have a breakout on my forehead and they have flattened out a little bit. My skin feels much smoother, but a tad dry. I'll probably have to add more water or an essential oil next time. Overall, pretty good. Might not use the entire container, but ok while I have it.

I actually use this in my professional facials, it is a great way to detox your skin, it also will minimize your pores and the anti aging effects helps you tighten your face and gets rid of fibe lines and wrinkles with regular use. My favorite product to use by far!!!! You can actually feel it working. The difference is Instantly noticeable, and ur skin feels great. I honestly recommend to use it once or up to 2x a week depending on how you feel about it. But my regular clients noticeable real results with weekly use. I love to use this at home on my own face as well and use it once to 2x a week depending on the need for it. I have really sensitive skin and this doesn't irritate my skin at all. All u need is a thin layer. Ur skin will thank u.
