Ghassoul Clay mask review !


Hello lovely readers !

Hope everyone is doing well. I am so excited to be reviewing this awesome hair product for you today. For the past month I've been testing out Zakia's Moroccan Ghassoul Clay Powder for skin and hair. Using a lot of chemicals and harsh ingredients really has done a number on both my skin and hair, so I was on the look out for an all natural product that will do what it's supposed to without breaking the bank. Keep reading to find out more about this amazing mask !

So what exactly is Ghassoul clay powder you ask? Ghassoul clay powder comes from deep within Atlas mountains in Morocco. This clay is formed naturally from volcanic and thermal activities.  The clay is extracted in large chunks but through a special process it is turned into a fine powder like form. There are many minerals that are found in Ghassoul clay which are beneficial for the skin. Many studies show that Ghassoul clay can enhance elasticity and clarity of skin. The clay also contains properties that can extract impurities such as blackheads. This should come as no surprise that this type of clay is used in many high end spas!   

In order to make a mask you just simply need to add water to clay to make a paste. Apply a thin layer all over face and neck. Wait until the mask is dry and gently wash it off. It's as simple as that and does not involve many complicated steps.I noticed that it's great for oily skin as it extracts oil and clears clogged pores. I have been using this mask once a week. However for dry skin I would recommend that you use it once every two weeks since it may dry out your skin more. Try using a ultra moisturizing lotion after if you tend to have dry skin.  I also used the clay as a hair treatment and my hair felt soft and voluminous. You can even add this as a part of your shampoo routine by adding just a small amount of clay to your regular shampoo. This will add extra shine to your hair. I noticed this while I was blow drying my hair.  

Overall I have become a big fan of this product. I love that it's natural, easy and safe to use. The benefits for your face, skin and hair are great but upon further research I found it's useful for other purposes as well.  Some people use this clay for helping in relieving arthritis pain as it creates a warm effect on sore joints, so this product is super versatile.

Some bonus tips:

* Add some sugar and honey with the clay to make a facial and body scrub
* Use a foundation brush for a fast and even application
*Use under neck and jawline area for firmer and toner skin
*Carry a small amount of clay in a travel container to use while travelling.
