Superfine French Green Clay comes from the sedimentation of Silico-aluminum. The colour is the result of the oxides contained in these rocks. Composition includes Iron, Silica, Aluminum, Magnesium, Calcium, Titanium, Sodium and Potassium (with a neutral pH of 7).
Add purified water, or floral water, mix into a paste and apply to the face or body. Allow to dry, rinse it off. Exercise caution clays may stain fabric.
