Is your skin screaming for some detoxification? Then you are in the right place.
Most women spend lots of money in beauty products that claim instant results. However there are always natural alternatives that with patience, give you fantastic results most importantly, avoiding a long list of chemicals that go into making them.
We tend to forget that we may have the solution right in front of us, at home. You should always consider a natural, drug-free option first. So, for this simple, easy yet effective home remedy all you'll be needing is: activated charcoal powder, green clay and water.
Activated charcoal is known for its many benefits to the skin, teeth and even and the tummy. When used in skin care, activated charcoal binds to and helps pull the oil and dirt out of your pores, making them less visible.
Why it works? Activated charcoal is a highly absorptive and wonderfully detoxifying substance, and is fantastic at drawing bacteria, chemicals, dirt, and other micro particles from the skin and hair.
Charcoal has an amazing ability to bind with impurities so bacteria, dead cells, oil and toxins are swept away when charcoal enters the game. Activated charcoal may bind to dirt on the skin only when in direct contact with debris. It naturally works together with popular face mask ingredients like clay.
Green clay has several benefits to offer when it comes to beauty and skincare. Green clay is a biological mineral with trace amounts of several minerals, which help to hydrate skin, keep them healthy, and nourish skin cells simultaneously.
Think of clay and charcoal working together like a vacuum to clear out your pores. Clay and activated charcoal are excellent face mask ingredients for absorbing excess oil.
Clay is super effective because the minerals from the volcanic ash actually contains calcium, aluminum, magnesium, copper, and zinc. Experts say clay masks can be used for reducing the size of pores, toning and softening dry, rough skin. It's also an amazing treatment for oily skin and acne sufferers.
And lastly, water activates the clay and all the nutrients that goes along with it, providing the cleansing and detoxifying experience that all skin types crave.
