Beauty Clay!

     Hello, and welcome back! Today I am going to do a blog on beauty clay masks, because who doesn't love clay masks? Anyway, I've made a list of cosmetic clay, and good ingredients to pair with it, for your own DIY face mask! Alright, let's get this started!

Let's start out with pink clay, also known as rose clay. Pink clay is a mild clay best used for normal, dry, and sensitive skin. Pink clay works for your skin by detoxifying, exfoliating, and healing your skin. This clay, as most clays, helps with acne. Its also known to heal sun damaged skin and improve circulation. Some ingredients that work well with yogurt, honey, almond oil, castor oil, and green tea. Rose petals are also great when paired with rose clay, essential oils such as lavender or rosemary.

Next up, we've got white clay. White clay doesn't pull oil from your skin, so its suitable for dryer skin. It helps detoxify skin, and improves circulation. It also limits the production of sebum, and mineralizes dry skin. Perfect for dry and oily skin. Some good ingredients to mix with white clay are milk, vitamin E oil, and nettle leaves.

Now let's talk about green clay. Green clay is used for increasing blood flow to your face, allowing for oxygen and nutrients to reach it. This is very, very important for skin repair and preventing wrinkles. This clay is best suited for oiler skin, normal, and combo since it removes excess oil and reduces the size of your pores. Good ingredients to mix with this clay is witch hazel and apple cider vinegar (I recommend Bragg Organic Apple Cider Vinegar, available at most groceries in the US) for acne prone skin. Raw honey is best for mature skin.

Buy it here, I also recommend this clay as its pretty similar in shrinking pores and evening out skin tone (mix with freshly squeezed orange juice).


Lastly (for now), is yellow clay. This is probably the most mild of all the clays. It, like pink clay, does not remove oil so this is suitable for drier skin. It's also a fantastic exfoliator! It draws out impurities and acts like a toner. It's actually so mild, it works well for sensitive skin. Ingredients such as jojoba oil, geranium essential oil, and rose water.

This is a good place to buy it.


You don't have to use those exact ingredients, they're just recommendation's. If I was you, I would play round with different ingredients, try to customize it to your skin type. Who knows your skin better than you do? Good luck!
