Provida Illite Green Clay 2lb (1kg) Fine Powder for Face Facial Body Mask Skin Natural Regenerator

I've been looking for an organic green clay mask and when I saw this I had to try it. It has done wonders on my skin and I could noticeably see an improvement in my pores with in the first week, and also apply to my neck. It's quality is one that is rare and its so simple to use. I put it in a small glass dish with filtered water and mix with my finger to get the consistency I want. This has been a great addition to my skin care regimen and would recommend this to anyone looking for a product without harsh chemicals to brighten up your skin. Keep in mind it does take a while to arrive, so be patient you won't be disappointed!

Now I know I don't really have an "adult acne" problem. I just needed to start using a mask, and exfoliating regularly. Duh! They say you can determine the authenticity of your green clay mask by the color. Well, this must be the real deal because it is truly GREEN. I've used it about 4 times, 2 or 3 times per week. I use only distilled water with my clay. A little goes a long way! My skin feels very clean and soft afterwards. I blot with witch hazel and moisturize with jojoba afterwards to prevent dryness. Shipping does take forever and a day, i almost forgot i'd ordered it. But it came, and it was very well packaged.

Since I was diagnosed with cancer, most makeup products leave my skin itchy, rashy, or worse. I ordered this green clay to use to for my oily skin. It works wonders with no side effects. I use it as a mask (by adding water) for when I want a deep cleaning or as a kind of powder foundation (by adding a little cornstarch and a pinch of cocoa powder). Though it goes on a pale green as a foundation, the color fades so that it looks natural. (Thanks to YouTube for the recipe!) I am especially proud of its use as a foundation since I can't wear commercial makeup any longer but I still want to feel a little "made up" on occasion. The clay has a faint but pleasantly earthy smell that will fade if you measure out the portion that you wish to use and let it sit out for a while. I mix my powder and leave it overnight in a little bowl and its ready to go first thing in the morning. I love it! 2.2lb Illite Green Clay Super Fine Powder for Face Facial Body Mask Skin Natural Regenerator

OHMGOODNESS! Okay, so the grade could be finer, but the quality is great! If you're bothered by the larger chunks, then grab a flower sifter and get to work! This is a great price for an excellent amount of clay, and the larger bits are few and far between (at least in my bags). I have combination skin that tends a lil towards oily. I use this mask 3 times a week, and it is saving me a FORTUNE making it myself! 10$ for 8 oz in the store? Never. Again. My Mud Mask Recipe: Noxzema Classic Clean Moisturizing Cream Green Clay Powder H2O (Green tea will also work to help calm your skin, while the caffeine naturally tightens skin around your eyes) Rosehip Oil (only if you would like to deeply moisturize) Be sparing with the Rosehip oil! It is thick, and makes the mask a lil harder to remove fully. A couple drops in a large batch will work wonders! I keep mine in an airtight BPA free Tupperware thingy, and apply it with a lovely lil brush :) All in all, I will have mud masks for MONTHS now, and am saving a TON of money. For anyone who is serious about their mud masks: This is for YOU.

This stuff is great! Of course its going to smell "swampy" its clay. Just watch a youtube video (clairedelys i think) on making a gentler mask with this, and youre good to go. This stuff lasts LONG! Ive had the same bag for about 2 years (granted i use it atmost 2 times a month). Leaves your skin so soft and smooth. Well worth the price. Compared to origins active charcoal mask AND MAC's volcanic ash, i prefer this over all of them. For those who want a finer grain, just get yourself a mortar & pestle.

Good

This is not a cosmetic clay by any means! When I opened this package months after my purchase, I was surprised to find a dark charcoal grey clay, not the paler mint green color I've had from other "extra fine ventilated" french green clays! In fact I believe that it was neither sifted nor crushed in anyway between the quarry and packaging, I found grains of sand/gravel the size of a lentil in mine! This is extremely dangerous and irresponsible of this company to offer such inferior grade clay as cosmetic clay. As a ceramic artist and a diy cosmetic lover this clay wouldn't even be good in making ceramics as the gravel in it is too sharp with rough edges for handbuilding much less wheel work. When I used this clay for a mask it scratched my face and left red scraped streaks! Do NOT waste your money unless you plan to seive out the chunks of Rocks or Don't mind Damaging your Skin!

Yes, there are larger particles that you should probably either sift out or sift and crush (maybe if you have a mortar and pestle?), but the clay does a great job for a facial mask. I leave the large particles in and just try to be careful when applying/rinsing the mask. A previous comment stated that it wasn't green clay; I don't agree - it IS more of an army green, so it's more grey-green, but the clay does the job sucking everything out the way that dirt/mud (previous comment) wouldn't. Unless you're hoping to impress someone with the green-ness of your clay mask (if they aren't scared and run away first hehe ;-) ), then I will be picking this product over a super green looking mask that either has additives or is just way more expensive. The price is awesome for the quantity. I will buy it again and also recommend it to friends and family.

I never thought I will ever put a clay mask or any other cosmetic mask on my face but my wife and her lady friend convinced me to do it, and boy em I glad I did. Plus I had to look like them otherwise I couldn't make fun of them. Best product ever when combined with cucumber juice. Leaves skin soft and clean, beats the heck out of spending hundrets in Beauty salons. The packaging was great and arrived intact, with instructions and seller explanation. Truly this seller cares about his customers and it shows. We ordered again and our friend too.

L'argile est parfaite, de très bonne qualité (made in France qui plus est). L'emballage en kraft fait très nature et éco mais il est cependant un peu fin et j'ai eu quelques surprises à la réception du colis... Sans gravité mais un film plastique autour du sachet aurait été un plus. Super qualité pour cette argile que j'utilise pour les produits "maison" (cosmétique, ménage etc).

Good seller, good product

Io con le argille ci ho sempre avuto un rapporto un po’ tipo “ti amo ma mi irriti”. Pelle mista, zona T che sembra una padella e poi guance che si seccano subito, un disastro. Ho voluto provare questa perché ne avevo sentito parlare in un gruppo su facebook dove tutte erano super entusiaste. Il pacco è enorme, veramente 1kg sembra non finire mai. La polvere è fine, si scioglie bene con un po’ d’acqua (io ci metto anche due gocce di olio di jojoba per evitare l’effetto cemento che ti spacca il viso). Se la lasci asciugare completamente sulla pelle tira un sacco e dopo mi sentivo la faccia tipo cartapesta, quindi ho capito che va tenuta umida, la nebulizzo con acqua ogni tanto mentre è su. Sul naso e sul mento fa miracoli, toglie proprio quella patina oleosa e i punti neri sembrano meno evidenti. Sulle guance invece devo metterla pochissimo perché se no dopo sembro la lucertola in muta. L’odore è terra, niente profumi. A me piace perché mi dà quella vibe spa casalinga un po’ zen. L’ho usata anche come impacco sulle gambe dopo la palestra e lì è stata una bella sorpresa, lascia la pelle bella liscia. Insomma, funziona, ma va capita. Se avete la pelle delicata andateci piano. Io ormai la uso una volta a settimana e mi trovo bene.

Ich bestellte das Produkt als Bestandteil einer bewussten und natürlichen Hautpflegeroutine in meinem Alltag. Zufällig stieß ich auf die Heilerde. Dem Produkt begegnete ich schon mit positiver Einstellung, da die Resonanz sehr gut war und es zur natürliche Pflege zählt. Viele Produkte aus Rossmann und Co sind chemisch und können teilweise kontraproduktiv sein. Mutter Natur spricht mich in solchen Fällen an und die Heilerde war somit ideal. Die Lieferung kam aus Portugal und ich habe nur ca. eine Woche auf das Produkt gewartet! Das ist für Lieferung aus dem Ausland akzeptabel! Als die Erde von Argila Em Pó ankam, war sie in einer mehrfachen Schicht Zeitungspapier eingepackt. Der Verkäufer hat eine beschriftete Nachricht beigefügt, in der er erklärte, dass er diese Maßnahe bewusst traf, da Feuchtigkeit während des Versandes die Erde verklumpen würde. Zudem versicherte er mir für die Zukunft einen Mengenrabatt. Anwendung: Ich gab in eine Schale nur eine überschaubare Menge Heilerde und etwas Wasser um sie zu der Paste zu rühren. Den Schlamm kann man dann einfach auf das ganze Gesicht auftragen. Beim einmassieren fühlt man einen angenehmen, natürlichen Peeling-Effekt, der die Schuppen und Unreinheiten von der Haut löst. Schon nach wenigen Minuten merkt man wie der Schlamm austrocknet und man spürt wie die Haut sich zusammenzieht und anspannt. Nachdem die Heilerde gleichmäßig ausgetrocknet ist, kann man die Maske einfach mit simplem Wasser und ohne Rückstände schnell abspülen. Beim Abwischen beginnt ein frisches Gefühl auf der Haut und sie fühlt sich viel geschmeidiger und glatt an. Ergebnis: Die Heilerde ist natürlich und effektiv, das fühlt man sofort! Die Haut fühlt sich einfach schöner an und sieht frischer aus. Die Poren werden gereinigt und verkleinern sich. Die wertvollen Mineralien in der Erde nähren die Haut unmittelbar. Der Peeling-Effekt reinigt die Oberfläche zusätzlich. Eine regelmäßige Anwendung kann nicht schaden sondern pflegt und nährt auf natürliche Weise. Ein wenig Heilerde mit etwas Wasser genügt schon für eine ganze Maske. Dadurch dauert es etwas Zeit, bis man den ganzen Inhalt verbraucht. Wenn man die Kosten von laufenden Mitteln wie Cremes und Waschlotions beachtet, ist der Preis somit mehr als erträglich. Und die Ware wird aus Portugal importiert! Fazit: Wunderähnliches, natürliches Produkt für die Haut! Empfehlenswert für jeden!!!
