Science Notes

French green clay is unique in its ability to absorb and adsorb without physically swelling and this is what gives the clay its excellent detoxifying capacity. It is one of the safest products to use on your skin as it draws toxins out of your skin's pores and absorbs them. French green clay is also anti bacterial and contains a range of trace elements (Mg, Ca, Zn, K, Fe, Al, Cu, Co Mo, Mn) necessary for well being.

Aloe vera is a wonderful broad spectrum healer that also aids in reducing inflammation and redness s it soothes the skin.
