Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay is a well-known calcium bentonite clay powder that you mix yourself into a mask. It suits oily, combination and congestion-prone skin, and many people also use it on the hair and scalp. The 1 lb tub lasts a long time.
Once mixed with apple cider vinegar or water, it forms a firm clay that draws out excess oil and grime from the pores. Skin feels deeply cleansed and refreshed afterwards, which is why it has such a loyal following for weekly masking.
How to use
- Mix equal parts clay and apple cider vinegar or water in a non-metal bowl.
- Apply an even layer to clean skin, avoiding the eyes and lips.
- Leave on for 5 to 10 minutes for sensitive skin, or up to 20 minutes otherwise.
- Rinse off with warm water and follow with moisturiser.
- Use once or twice a week.
