Slay Purifying Clay

Kaolin & Bentonite

Bentonite clay is made from volcanic ash.
It has a high tolerance for oil and will immediately absorb what it comes into contact with like a magnet. This particular clay is perfect for people with excessive oil to surface and difficult pores or pitted scar tissue.

Kaolin clay has a unique molecular structure that 'sucks' up pollution, grime and debris. It rather enjoys a congested environment and works at its best the deeper it has to go. Perfect for black heads, ingrown hairs and acne.

Both Clays work by taking away the bad and leaving the good, wont dry out the skin and will stop working when they have collected the 'dirt' around them.

Neither clay binds to water, wont dry the skin or suck the fluid from your skin cells and hoard it. Unlike some other clays, our mix is generous with its properties and evenly expands, settling into the areas it needs to go. In fact, it adjusts its 'value' to different areas so once wiped and washed away the skin has been evenly cleansed.

Typical ratio is 1:3

Add 2-3 scoops of clay mix to a bowl. Add 1 scoop of water and mix well.

If you wish, you can mix with Aloe vera gel, juice or serum. You can also add an essential oil or vitamin water of your choice as the liquid component. Yes, you can also add witch hazel!

Continue to do this until a paste forms. Both clays are colloids, meaning they swell when in contact with liquid so take your time and enjoy mixing.
Don't make it too thick or it wont spread well and will take longer to set on the skin. if too thick just add a few more drops of liquid.

Repeat the same process if you wish to make more clay for a larger area.

Approx 10 minutes on warm days

Approx 15 minutes on cold days

Never exceed 15 minutes !!!

With clay masks you should never wait for the clay to completely dry and harden. If this happens then it means essential amounts of moisture have now depleted in the dermal layers.

Clay masks (and especially ours) are for drawing out the bad but with intent to leave the skin feeling refreshed. It’s poor skin care practice to leave a clay mask on until it hardens!

Safe for Ages 12+ to help combat the wonderful (not so wonderful) teen hormonal breakouts.

Matured skin help promote a base for antiaging creams, serums or treatments.

To really give yourself a pamper we recommend:

1. Scrub
2. Clay
3. Serum

This can be done all over the body, wherever you like.

• Face
• Neck
• Back
• Chest
• Abdomen
• Pelvic area
• Outer groin
• Legs/Arms
• Feet

And... for anyone living with fungal nail issues, can be applied to help draw out the fungal pathogens from between toe nails and crevice's otherwise difficult to cleanse.

Now that the clay has given your skin a virgin finish, go ahead and add whatever skin care you like.

Be sure to avoid acidic products as now the clay has removed excess oils there is a clean canvas. Any acidic fluids or harsh product can cause irritation (or burns).

Do not go directly under UV or LED lighting after clay mask removal unless you have applied a serum or cream related to protecting the skin from the heat of the lights.

A simple moisturization with vitamin rich properties such as our GioventX is like paradise for newly cleansed skin.
If you have severe acne or breakouts you can apply our Hempatico to fortify the antibacterial and decongesting process.

Oily skin and breakouts: We recommend the clay be used every second day.

Regular skin, no active breakouts: twice a week will suffice

Provided you are applying moisturizers and serums straight after, each time you use the clay it is simply a method of drawing the impurities out and preparing the skin for a fresh start. The magic of Clay masks of any kind, resides in the ability to vacuum up the crumbs… so to speak, and leave the skin ready to absorb new vitamins, minerals and goodness from serums or creams.

Do not use metal spoons for mixing! Both clays have low iron content however metal spoons can change the negative charge and impacts their performance. Meaning they wont have the same super ability to draw out, but it wont harm you either way.

Do not ingest.

Patch testing is always recommended. Mix and apply a small amount to the inner elbow or clavicle and let sit for atleast 15mins to determine sensitivity. If any irritation, burning or stinging occurs during application, wash off immediately. Seek advice from your Dr.
If you intend to mix with essential oils be sure to monitor your skin during and after for any irritation as some essential oils are very potent and can harm your skin on direct contact.
