NATURAL FRENCH CLAY, mined in France. The two kinds of natural French clay I recommend for use with pure essential oils are pink and green clay.

Here's why:

PINK CLAY is a mild and gentle clay that's suitable for use everyday without any drying affects. Pink clay's action is cleansing, purifying, detoxifying, soothing, and softening. It is especially useful for dry, sensitive and normal skin conditions.

GREEN FRENCH CLAY is highly astringent, as well as absorbent. It is excellent for pulling oils, toxins, and impurities from your skin, and wonderful for toning and clearing the complexion as it tightens pores, repairs damaged skin cells, stimulates skin cell regeneration, and helps clear problem skin.

DIRECTIONS:

1. Blend your choice of natural French clay with purified water or cream to make a loose paste, but not wet.
2. Add your pure essential oil to the paste and blend thoroughly.
3. Immediately begin to apply the French clay mixture to your face, or body using gentle upward sweeping strokes. Stand over a large bath towel, or in your shower if you are applying as a full or partial body masque.
4. Relax and allow masque to dry for 10-15, and rinse off in a warm shower. If you're applying a full or partial body masque you can lie down in a dry tub or on a plastic sheet while the masque dries.
5. Rinse off with a warm shower and towel dry with a soft towel.

CAUTION: Clay may stain fabric.

Your skin will feel soft, refreshed, more firm and toned after your masque.

Enjoy your spa day!
