What Can A Clay Mask Really Do For Your Skin?
By LESLIE LEON
There are many different types of clay masks with different key ingredients that focus on various aspects of the skin. They can detoxify, minimize pores, banish impurities, and improve blood circulation and collagen production, so it is important to choose the right kind for your skincare needs.
If you have sensitive skin, opt for Kaolin and Australian pink clay, but if your skin needs extra cleansing you should use Bentonite and French green clays. Rhassoul clay is ideal for those who want to get rid of excess sebum production but also want redness relief.
There are also various clay colors that target specific skin issues. Purple clay masks are ideal for those with dry skin, but if you’re looking for a mask with general benefits, then red is best. Blue clay protects against external stressors while yellow clay is best for those with mature skin.
