The 3 natural beauty products I couldn&#039;t live without! (Part 2)<br /> <br /> Number 2 - Rhassoul clay (also known as Morrocan or Ghassoul).<br /> OMG I just absolutely frickin&#039; LOVE this clay!! LOVE LOVE LOVE! <br /> <br /> I first came across this clay about 3 years ago and the reason I tried it was because it seemed to me that clay is a really natural product that animals and ancient civilisations have used to clean themselves for FOREVER. It felt very &#039;back to real basics&#039; in terms of natural products. However, I was NOT expecting to LOVE it so much and the reason isn&#039;t even listed as a benefit on sites selling it. <br /> <br /> So let&#039;s start by listing what this clay is exactly and what are the stated benefits? (Then I&#039;ll reveal the unexpected benefit I discovered when using it!)<br /> <br /> Rhassoul clay, also known as Ghassoul clay or Moroccan red clay, is a natural mineral clay that has been used for centuries for cosmetic and therapeutic purposes. It is mined from the Atlas Mountains in Morocco and is known for its unique composition and various benefits for the skin and hair.<br /> <br /> Here are some key characteristics and uses of Rhassoul clay:<br /> <br /> Mineral Composition:<br /> Rhassoul clay is rich in minerals, including silica, magnesium, potassium, calcium, and other trace elements. These minerals contribute to its ability to nourish and revitalize the skin.<br /> <br /> Cleansing Properties:<br /> One of the primary uses of Rhassoul clay is as a cleanser for the skin and hair. It has natural cleansing properties that help remove impurities, excess oil, and toxins. When used as a facial or body mask, it can leave the skin feeling clean and refreshed.<br /> <br /> Exfoliation:<br /> The clay has fine particles that make it an effective exfoliant. It helps gently remove dead skin cells, promoting a smoother and brighter complexion.<br /> <br /> Improves Skin Texture:<br /> Regular use of Rhassoul clay may improve skin texture by enhancing elasticity and firmness. It can also help balance oil production, making it suitable for both oily and dry skin types.<br /> <br /> Hair Care:<br /> Rhassoul clay is beneficial for hair care as well. It can be used as a hair mask or a natural shampoo to cleanse the scalp, remove excess oil, and promote healthy hair growth. It may also improve the texture and manageability of the hair.<br /> <br /> Detoxification:<br /> The clay has detoxifying properties that can help draw out impurities and toxins from the skin. This makes it a popular choice for facial masks and body wraps in spa treatments.<br /> <br /> Gentle on the Skin:<br /> Unlike some other clays, Rhassoul clay is considered gentle on the skin, making it suitable for sensitive skin types. It doesn&#039;t strip the skin of its natural oils but helps maintain a balanced and healthy complexion.<br /> <br /> Absorbs Excess Oil:<br /> Rhassoul clay has the ability to absorb excess oil without drying out the skin. This makes it a good option for those with oily or acne-prone skin.<br /> <br /> Versatility:<br /> Rhassoul clay can be used in various skincare and haircare formulations, such as masks, cleansers, and scrubs. It can be mixed with water or other liquid ingredients to create a paste for application.<br /> <br /> Ok so that&#039;s the official information, but what is my experience of it? Well I bought it to wash my hair with, and it works really well in terms of being kind on my scalp (I have psorasis), and it definitely removes oils - I can go 5-7 days between washes. On the downside, it can be a little drying, so a good conditioner is needed.<br /> <br /> However, none of this gets to what I LOVE about it. So I decided one day to try it on my skin, and my goodness, it feels SOOoooo sensual, so earthy, so witchy, so primal......it just feels INCREDIBLE to rub this on your skin. (And my skin feels so smooth afterwards too which is an extra bonus.) All women everywhere should try this stuff and reclaim their wild woman!
