The white clay with many properties!

Description

Cattier Surfine White Clay, extracted in France, has been rigorously selected for its incomparable quality. Its properties have been exalted by the action of the sun. It is traditionally used in masks, poultices and clay water. Thanks to its neutral pH, it is particularly well suited to the care of dry and fragile skin. Non-allergenic, it is also suitable for babies' sensitive skin and can be used as talcum powder. It is also soothing and restorative. Absorbent, decongestant and regenerating, it eliminates toxins and impurities, revitalizes and soothes while promoting cellular reconstitution.

Directions for use:

Preparation of the clay paste: Pour the desired amount of white clay into a glass or wooden container. Add a volume of spring water to fully immerse the clay. Let stand for about half an hour and then stir with a non-metallic spatula to obtain a smooth paste. White Clay can be used alone or combined with essential oils.

As a beauty mask: Apply the clay paste in a thick layer to the face and neck, avoiding the eye and lip area. Leave on for about 10 minutes without letting the mask dry on the skin. Rinse with warm water and dry. Complete the treatment by applying a moisturizing cream adapted to your skin type.

As a poultice: Place the clay paste on a piece of natural fibre and, using a non-metallic spatula, spread it out to a thickness of 2-3 cm. Lay the poultice with the clay directly in contact with the skin and hold it in place with a bandage, but not too tightly. If the poultice needs to be applied to an irritated area, lay some fine gauze between the clay and skin. Leave the poultice in place for one hour. When it comes to taking it off, remove as much of the clay as possible, wetting it if necessary, then rinse off with tepid water and dry with a cotton towel.

Preparation of clayey water: Tip out one or two spoons of white clay in a glass, add water and stir with a wood or plastic spoon. Wait until the clay settled in the back of the glass and use only clayey water. Ingredient White clay.

Further information

Clay is an earth, resulting from the metamorphosis of a rock, naturally rich in mineral salts. It is found in deposits of varying size, mostly exploited in open-cast mines. It is the first natural medicine known to man. It has been recognized and used for its therapeutic virtues for centuries. A true living substance endowed with natural intelligence, clay is distinguished by its two main properties of absorption and adsorption, which allow it to exchange impurities and toxins absorbed for minerals. Kaolinite clay is one of the gentlest clays for the skin.
