Purifying green clay mask
Anhydrous powder for preparing a fresh mask just before use.
This recipe is designed as an anhydrous powder: it is stored dry, and only the amount to be used immediately is hydrated.
Green clay is used as the main base for its ability to form a rinse-off mineral paste, designed for skin seeking a feeling of cleanliness and freshness.
Do not store a mask that has already been hydrated, because adding water creates a medium much more vulnerable to contamination. If any wet mixture is left over, the prudent approach is to discard it.

Step by step
Preservation, shelf life and validation
- Indicative formula for external use. Avoid inhaling fine powders while weighing and mixing; wear a mask when working with larger quantities.
- Do not apply to irritated skin, wounds, mucous membranes or the eye area. Hydrate only the amount needed and discard any leftovers that have already been wetted.
