Benefits

Cleansing

Yellow Clay draws impurities from the skin and has a mild exfoliating effect. This prevents dead skin cells from accumulating in the pores.

Nourishing

Yellow Clay is packed with minerals, enzymes and trace elements including calcium, phosphorus, potassium, manganese, zinc, chlorine, cobalt, magnesium oxide, iron oxide, sodium and sulphur. These nourishing substances can be absorbed directly into the skin through the clay. Additionally, Yellow Clay gives your skin a fresh appearance, so you get your natural glow back.

Suitable for all skin types

Yellow Clay is milder than, for example, green clay and is therefore suitable for all skin types, including dry and sensitive skin! However, always test it on a small area of skin first to check that the clay does not irritate. Do you have sensitive skin? Consult an expert first to see if Yellow Clay is also suitable for your skin.

How do you use it?

Face mask

Mix 2 tablespoons of Yellow Clay Powder with a little water, let it stand for a few minutes and stir with a wooden or glass spatula until you have a smooth mixture. Apply the mixture to your face and let it work for 7 to 15 minutes. If desired, place some cling film over the clay on your face to prevent the clay from drying out, or apply an extra thick layer to your skin (1/2 to 1 centimetre thick). Then remove the clay from your face with a spatula and remove any remaining traces in circular motions with water. This immediately gives your skin a gentle scrub. After that, apply a cream or oil to your skin.

Compress

Mix 2 tablespoons of Yellow Clay Powder with a little water, let it stand for a few minutes and stir with a wooden or glass spatula until you have a smooth mixture. Take a warm, damp linen cloth or compress and spread the paste in the middle. Wrap the cloth around the area to be cleansed and leave it on until it becomes uncomfortable, prevent the clay from drying out.

What makes it so special?

Clay is a one hundred percent natural product from the earth and has been used since the beginning of mankind. For example, the Egyptians used clay in mummification and Russian soldiers took clay with them to the front.

Yellow Clay owes its colour to iron oxide. Yellow Clay has a milder effect than green clay, which contains more iron oxide.
