Rhassoul cleansing paste

Mineral powder for preparing a rinse-off paste immediately before use.

Save to favourites
This recipe is designed as an anhydrous powder: it is stored dry, and only the amount to be used immediately is hydrated. Rhassoul is included in a high proportion so that it is the ingredient that determines the mineral texture and behaviour of the cleansing paste. 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

Prepare the dry equipment 1 Room temperature

Prepare the dry equipment

Before starting, clean the worktop and prepare a large, dry, completely clean container. In recipes containing powders, moisture introduced too early can cause the mixture to clump.

If you are preparing more than one unit, wear a mask to avoid inhaling fine dust while weighing and stirring.

Weigh the powders 2 Room temperature

Weigh the powders

Weigh the Rhassoul Clay first, as it is the main ingredient. Then add the remaining powders one at a time.

Work slowly and avoid tapping the container. The idea is to avoid clouds of powder and achieve a clean mixture from the start.

Mix and sieve 3 Room temperature

Mix and sieve

Fold the mixture until the colour and texture look uniform. If there are small lumps, sieve the mixture and stir again.

This step greatly improves the experience of using the product, because a fine mixture hydrates better and leaves fewer lumps on the skin or in the bath.

Package dry 4 Room temperature

Package dry

Transfer the powder to a clean, dry jar and close it tightly. Add a label with the name and preparation date.

Keep it away from moisture. Do not put wet spoons or fingers into the container, as it would then cease to be a safe dry mixture.

Hydrate only the portion to be used 5 Room temperature

Hydrate only the portion to be used

To use as a mask or paste, take a small amount in a separate bowl and gradually add water or hydrosol until a comfortable texture forms. Do not add liquid to the main jar.

For bath salts, dissolve the required amount directly in the bath or foot-bath water.

Remove and validate tolerance Final Room temperature

Remove and validate tolerance

Apply briefly the first time and rinse with plenty of water before it becomes uncomfortable. If you notice itching, excessive heat or irritation, remove immediately.

Do not keep leftovers that have already been hydrated. When a powder is wetted, the preservation risk changes completely.

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.
