Our gel-to-foam oxygenating detox mask instantly purifies, diminishing pore size while soothing and replenishing skin. Packed with antioxidant-rich camellia leaves and vitamins C&E for brightening and nourishment.
1. Montmorillonite clay
Montmorillonite clay is a mineral known for its ability to purify skin. Its absorbency capacity helps draw out impurities like oil and bacteria while its negative electrical charge helps bind with positively charged toxins and heavy metals that would otherwise cling to positively charged surfaces on our bodies.
Montmorillonite belongs to the 2:1 phyllosilicate clay minerals known as smectites and features an unusual structure consisting of two silica tetrahedral sheets sandwiching an octahedral sheet of aluminum oxide.
Clay masks can be an ideal option for sensitive skin, helping reduce pore size appearance and breakouts while at the same time protecting from dryness. Overuse can cause dryness; thus it is advised not to apply one more than once or twice each week.
2. Moroccan lava clay
Moroccan red clay (or rhassoul clay), known for its anti aging and skin soothing benefits, provides an exceptional beauty ingredient to deep cleanse skin and fight acne while simultaneously drawing out impurities that could block pores.
Its innovative formula easily unclogs pores without upsetting the natural balance of skin, while respecting hydrolipidic film structure – making it perfect for sensitive or reactive skin types.
As opposed to synthetic soaps that only remove dirt, this clay works deeper to cleanse and bind sebum for more balanced oil levels in your skin. Furthermore, its natural astringent properties help tighten and shrink large pores for tighter pores. Combine it with some tea tree or jojoba oil for an effective blackhead treatment mask!
3. Green tea
Green tea makes an excellent ingredient for detoxifying face masks because of its powerful antioxidants, helping restore damaged cells and reduce wrinkles while simultaneously providing ample amounts of Vitamin B-2 that keeps skin hydrated and soft.
Detoxifying masks containing this ingredient are a must for oily skin care, helping balance excess oil while soothing irritations on irritated areas of skin and even helping fade dark spots and scars.
A detoxifying mask with this ingredient is designed to nourish and purify your complexion while clarifying pores. It includes ingredients such as green tea, white kaolin clay, rose kaolin clay, Moroccan red clay and Rhassoul clay as well as white willow bark extract – leaving behind even-toned and radiant complexion.
4. Aloe vera
Aloe vera was once revered as the plant of immortality by our ancestors, as its versatile beauty benefits span wound-healing, anti-inflammatory, moisturizing and wound-healing properties as well as antifungal, laxative and immunological benefits.
Aloe vera provides relief for skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema, improves its appearance with anti-ageing benefits and stimulates collagen production to create firmer, plumper skin. Furthermore, its antioxidant content protects it against free radical damage to your complexion.
Add aloe vera to a face mask by mixing it with raw or white sugar and coconut oil to form an exfoliator, effectively clearing away dead skin cells while stimulating new growth – leaving your complexion freshened up! For acne relief, combine aloe vera with tea tree oil for an effective acne remedy; just be sure to run an allergy test prior to trying out any such remedies on your skin!
5. Honey
Honey, an all-natural sweetener, boasts numerous skin benefits that can be utilized in various forms. Honey can soften skin texture, soothe irritations and restore tired or dull skin with rejuvenation while simultaneously improving long-term hydration levels significantly. Plus it even helps ease anxiety caused by acne scars!
Honey works best as part of a facial mask when applied after wetting your face, as this removes most of its natural tackiness and allows it to absorb into your skin more readily. This method is especially helpful for soothing dry winter skin. Our Honey-Avocado Face Mask contains an irresistibly delicious combination of avocado, honey and apple-cider vinegar; providing optimal cleansing and nourishment benefits for all skin types!
