• The benefits of a green clay mask on oily or combination skin

Green clay is known in cosmetics for its absorbing properties. It plays a role of sponge beauty: it absorbs excess sebum and mattifies the skin.

But this clay also has detox virtues which are due to its adsorbent properties. Kezako? Adsorbing involves fixing the molecules of the skin. The green clay, therefore, remineralizes the skin and detoxifies it.
