My Cosmetik Yellow Clay is very versatile and covers many needs. Softening and stimulating, it offers a "healthy glow" effect to dull and tired skin. It also helps reduce skin spots and absorbs excess sebum. Due to its purifying and cleansing properties, it is the ideal ally for sensitive and dull skin, but also oily skin. Clay has two major properties: absorbent and adsorbent. That is to say that it provides both a role of sponge and at the same time a role of magnet on the toxins present on the surface of our skin. Its yellow color is due to the ocher pigment of mineral origin. This pigment gives it in particular its "healthy glow" action on the skin. Incorporated in your homemade cosmetics, yellow clay allows a gentle detox for the skin and an action on the complexion. Yellow clay, less rich in iron oxide than green and red clays, is less irritating to sensitive skin. Its many virtues and ease of use make it ideal for treating a multitude of skin imbalances (rosacea, dull complexion, delicate skin, dark spots, oily skin, etc.) whether in the form of a mask or even a cream. It is advisable to use in the preparation of "good-looking" masks, shampoos, soaps, illuminating creams, etc. - "Healthy glow" mask: in a bowl, place 50 g of yellow clay. Do not use a metal bowl or spoon. In a second bowl, pour 30 ml of rose hydrolate, 5 ml of carrot macerate, 10 drops of lemon essential oil, 12 drops of isocidal and 4 drops of vitamin E. Mix vigorously then pour the contents of the second bowl in clay. Mix well to homogenize the preparation. In the evening, wash your face then apply to damp skin. Massage and leave on for 5 to 8 minutes. When parts of the mask start to dry, rinse and dab dry. Use once or twice a week. - Illuminating and mattifying cream for the face: You can add to your moisturizing day cream (50 ml) 1 to 2 g of yellow clay as well as a pinch of gold or copper mica. Mix to homogenize the preparation. You then obtain a cream that will illuminate your complexion and mattify combination to oily skin. Keep out of the reach of children.
