DESCRIPTION
Clay, naturally rich in mineral salts, is a type of soil formed by rock metamorphism. It occurs in larger or smaller sediments and is usually extracted from open-cast mines. It is considered the first natural remedy known to man and has been used for therapeutic purposes for centuries. Clay stands out from other elements in its absorbent and adsorbent properties – that is, it can exchange absorbed pollutants and toxins for beneficial minerals. Cattier Ultra-Vented Green Clay , mined in France in environments protected from any contamination, was selected for its unsurpassed quality. Its beneficial properties have been enhanced by exposure to the sun. Clay is used to make masks, compresses, and clayey water. Absorbent, purifying, and regenerating, Cattier Ultra-Vented Green Clay is particularly suitable for the care of combination to oily skin. It absorbs and regulates excess sebum, eliminates toxins and impurities, revitalizes the skin, and accelerates cell renewal. It also has antiseptic and softening properties.

PREPARATION
Clay paste preparation : Pour the green clay into a wooden or glass container and add water. Let it sit for 30 minutes, then mix with a wooden or plastic spatula to obtain a smooth paste. Ultra-aerated green clay can be used alone or in combination with essential oils.
Face mask: Apply a thick layer of clay to your face and neck, avoiding the eye and lip area. Leave on for about 10 minutes, leaving the mask to dry on your skin. Rinse off with lukewarm water and pat dry with a cotton towel.
As a wrap: Place the clay on a piece of natural fiber and spread it 2-3 cm thick with a non-metallic spatula. Make a clay compress in direct contact with the skin and secure it with a bandage, but not too tightly. If applying the compress to an irritated area, place a thin gauze pad between the clay and the skin. Leave the compress in place for one hour. When removing it, remove as much clay as possible, moistening it if necessary, then rinse with lukewarm water and dry the skin with a cotton cloth.
Clay Water Preparation : Place one to two tablespoons of green clay into a glass, add water, and mix with a wooden or plastic spoon. Allow the clay to settle to the bottom of the glass and use only the resulting clay water.
