Bentonite Clay is an AWESOME - I love what they have to say about it over at Naturally Living Ideas
Clay unclogs the skin pores and shrinks them
Whether you have oily skin or not,
your pores will undoubtedly become clogged at some point. Shrinking the
size of your pores can help tremendously with keeping your face clean
and blemishes as bay. Apply to your face and
neck and leave it on for about thirty minutes to help with this challenge. You will feel your face
tighten slightly as the mask dries. Rinse with warm tap water and pat
dry with a clean towel. Repeat this twice a week to reduce the size of
your pores and leave your skin feeling vital and fresh.
Clay helps control the overproduction of sebum
Too much oil on the skin, abnormal
shedding of dead skin cells and excess bacteria generally results in
acne. You may also be prone to outbreaks if you take certain medication,
produce too much sebum (a natural oil) or have a family history of
acne. Blackheads or whiteheads are produced due to an excess of sebum,
which cause blocks within the hair follicles on the skin. Oily skin with
too much sebum encourages the production of bacteria which irritates
the skin. This can result in acne. To keep your skin soft, supple and
blemish-free, use a dab of Muddy directly on blemishes.
Leave on overnight and repeat until blemish is gone.
Clay draws out the toxins from the skin
Bentonite clay has a very strong
negative electrical charge. Since many toxins have a positive charge,
the clay bonds to them. When it comes in contact with a toxin, heavy
metal, chemical, or other impurity, the clay will gobble up the toxin
and release its minerals for the body to use. In addition, Bentonite
clay also pulls hydrogen from cells, allowing room for oxygen. This
helps with circulation, and overall skin tone and health.
Clay makes skin softer
Bentonite clay is loaded with silica,
a trace mineral that strengthens connective tissue including muscles,
tendons, ligaments, cartilage and bone. In addition, it makes your skin
super soft. Silica is the most abundant mineral in the earth’s crust and
is the name for the chemical compound silicon dioxide. Glass, quartz,
and sand are all comprised of oxygen and silicon. Using bentonite clay
on your skin means you reap all of its benefits as it is readily
absorbed. If you want more of its benefits, eat foods high in this
mineral including garbanzo beans, cucumbers, mangos, asparagus, leeks,
green beans, strawberries, and celery.
Clay gives a definite glow to your face
Bentonite clay conditions and
nourishes one’s skin by removing the dead cells and also extracting the
extra oils and impurities from the surface of the skin. For a “glow” you
should apply the clay mask regularly.Keep the mask for at least five minutes and rinse with lukewarm
water. The aftermath of this is an instant glow on the face. Many use
the mask just a few times a week or once a week and have great results.
Clay exfoliates
Exfoliating is a very important part
of any skincare regime. It not only removes dead cells but also unclogs
the dirt and oil in your pores that can cause breakouts. Although you
can find many exfoliating products in the store, they often contain
harsh ingredients. These ingredients include plastics, irritating
fragrances, glycerin, parabens, phthalates and other questionable
substances.
Clay helps reduce the appearance of scars
If you are one of the millions who
suffer from acne, you not only have to deal with the acne itself but
also the scars that remain from it. The use of bentonite clay is one
among the few effective home remedies to remove the scar tissues. As
mentioned, this clay helps to remove toxins from your pores, allows skin
to heal and reduces inflammation.
Bentonite clay helps in the
lightening of acne marks on the face. Bentonite clay helps one to get
rid of scar tissues and stretch marks easily and effectively. Acne scars
often result in red color on the face. Clay can help heal the skin and
reduce inflammation and redness.
Clay is safe for all skin types
Bentonite clay is very effective and beneficial for skin and safe, no matter how old you are.
Bentonite clay is suitable for all types such as normal, oily or
acne-prone skin. As mentioned, clay is packed with useful minerals and
it will help detoxify while nourishing your skin.
Caution: If you react
to some metals or have an allergy to some substances in the clay, you
may experience itchiness on the skin. It is rarely seen with topical use
of bentonite clay on the skin unless you have super sensitive skin.
Test the clay on less sensitive areas of your body before using on the
face.
Clay can be used to regenerate skin tissue
Bentonite clay can be used to rebuild
damaged skin tissue. Activated bentonite clay assists in healing and
regenerating skin tissue. The clay also helps to rejuvenate skin naturally and reduce fine lines and wrinkles while fighting bacteria and infection.
Clay gives you an even skin tone
During one’s childhood, one has
almost perfect skin with an even tone. But as the time passes, skin
damages from common problems such as sun exposure, discoloration of the
skin and acne breakouts with most of us ending up with uneven skin tone
and skin discoloration on your face.
Although it is not possible to
completely recover the baby like skin, by applying bentonite clay on the
face you can attain a younger look and improve your skin texture and
tone. Dead skin cells, developed
over time on the skin surface, give your skin an uneven tone and aged
look. By exfoliating your skin you can eliminate such dead skin cells so
that newer, younger skin can grow through to give your skin complexion a
revitalized appearance.
These are just some of the many ways
that this gift from the earth can help you look and feel your best. It
is amazing that something so simple as clay can do so much!
Have an amazing day
