Clay powder

Clay powder is an extremely useful and excellent addition to cosmetics or body care.

Clay has been used by humans for nutrition and care purposes since 2500 BC. They used clay to make clay drinks and put clay wraps on the body. Clay used for food and cosmetic purposes must not come into contact with metal. It is therefore always stored in a paper, plastic or glass container and stirred with a plastic or wooden spoon.

With clay powder we can prepare:

• body wraps,
• hair mask,
• clay body bath,
• aluminium foot bath,
• home cosmetics...

Clay is sun-dried, 100% natural and vegan.The product is not tested on animals.

Use

Clay Bath Ritual for Body and Feet: Use 5 handfuls of clay and 10-20 minutes of time to soak your entire body. To soak your feet, put 1 handful of clay in 2 litres of warm water and soak your feet for 10-20 minutes.

Clay Body Wrap Ritual: Add liquid (water, vinegar or herbal decoction) to the clay in a ratio of 70% clay to 30% liquid and leave for about 15 minutes to allow the clay to absorb the liquid. Mix the resulting mass with wooden or plastic utensils and thicken with clay, dilute with water or add herbs as needed. When caring for skin with cellulite, clay wraps should be less frequent and thinner than the wraps we use on joints, muscles and feet. The clay wrap is applied evenly directly to the skin. Leave on for 20 minutes to 3 hours (depending on what you are using it for). Discard the clay wrap after each use.

Scalp Mask Ritual: Add water to the clay in a ratio of 50% clay to 50% water. Stirring to obtain a smooth liquid mixture (similar to liquid shampoo). Finally, add 1 tablespoon of vinegar or 1 tablespoon of coconut oil. Apply the clay hair mask to the scalp from the ends to the roots, leave it on for 15 minutes and then rinse well.

Clay can also be used to make some other homemade products:

• Powdered Clay and CLAY WRAPS: You can make these similarly to clay wraps (described above), only you add more water to get a thinner mixture. Clay powder and water mixed in a ceramic container are ready to use. Soak a cotton bandage or cloth in the prepared mixture and apply it to the desired part of the body. If you want, you can cover the whole body.
• Clay Powder and SOFT SKIN: It is prepared similarly to the clay herbal wrap. The clay powder is mixed with water and then the prepared mixture is applied on the selected areas for about 30 minutes. Perform the treatment several times a week for at least 1 month. The clay should be air-dried, but of course you can also wrap it with cotton strips, but certainly not with plastic wrap, as the clay works when it dries. Finally, when the clay has done its job, remove it with a wet towel and water.
• Clay Powder and Preparing HOME COSMETICS: Clay powder can be a wonderful base for shampoos, ointments, soaps, deodorants, etc.
