Baths:

Body Packs:
Add one part clay to three parts water until the desired consistency is reached. Mix thoroughly to an even paste, and then apply to the skin area. Bentonite Clay helps to draw out toxins whilst Fuller’s Earth is ideal for toning the skin and reducing the appearance of cellulite.

Face Mask:
Mix a small amount with water until a smooth paste is obtained. Apply a thin layer of the paste to your face. Leave for 10 – 15 minutes or until dried before rinsing with warm water. If you have dry or sensitive skin we highly recommend our Pink Clay or  use  our White Clay  for an oilier T-Zone

For an even more inducing mask, use Soap Cafe Organic hydrosols instead of water to increase the healing action.  Those with normal-dry skin may even add a dash of honey, yogurt, cream, milk, pureed avocado, cucumber, or a few drops of carrier oil (such as Jojoba oil) to the mixture. Those with oily skin may add Witch Hazel, apple cider vinegar, or lemon juice to the clay mixture.

First Aid: Mix a teaspoon of clay with some water, a teaspoon of  Aloe Vera gel, and  5 drops of Lavender essential oil . Stir until a smooth paste is achieved. Apply directly to cuts, minor burns, stings, bites, or rashes.

Poultices: These are ideal for bruising, sprains, or joint pains. Add one part clay to three parts water or until you reach the desired consistency, mix thoroughly to create an even paste. Add 1 part Arnica Oil or Castor Oil to the mixture. Spread paste onto a piece of gauze and apply directly to the affected area, securing with a bandage. Leave in place for up to 2 hours but do not allow the paste to dry. Discard the poultice and re-apply a fresh one if needed.
