Ingredient Spotlight: Rhassoul Clay

There’s a variety of different facial clays on the market so when I created my Cleansing Clay Exfoliant, I did a lot of research. I wanted to use something that was on the cutting edge of skincare. What I discovered was an ancient beauty secret used for thousands of years.

Sourced from Morocco’s Atlas Mountains, Rhassoul clay has been used as an all-purpose cleanser in Northern Africa for thousands of years.

Rich in magnesium and silica, Rhassoul clay has a high negative charge meaning it will draw out blackheads and other impurities from the skin, without leaving your skin feeling dry.

 

Rhassoul Clay Benefits

The benefits of Rhassoul clay almost seem endless. Just some of these benefits include:

  • Exfoliating dead skin cells
  • Soothes inflammatory skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis
  • Detoxifying
  • Tightens pores
  • Deep cleaning
  • Reduces excess oil without drying skin out
  • Also great for the hair! (cleanses scalp and great for dandruff)

 

Just like Rhassoul clay, our Cleansing Clay Exfoliant is just as versatile. Use it as a cleanser, mix it with your current cleanser to make it exfoliating, or leave it on as a mask. We hope we introduced you to your new favorite beauty secret.
