Bentonite Clay Facial Mask

One of Nature's most unique gifts, Bentonite Clay is becoming more popular for a variety of uses.  I have chosen to create a fantastic facial mask which tightens, brightens, and renews!

Bentonite Clay is a very unique substance, formed primarily of Montmorillonite, which is an extremely flat crystal flake, that carries a relatively strong negative ionic charge. The negative charge is compensated for by adsorbing a cation (either Sodium or Calcium) to the interior of the molecule, this is what makes it either Sodium Bentonite or Calcium Bentonite Clay.

Our clay is a natural mix of both sodium and calcium Bentonite, this will allow it to do twice as much as either one by itself.  The Sodium Bentonite has the highest Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) and the higher the CEC of the clay the stronger the negative charge. This means that Sodium Montmorillonite has a stronger vacuum for pulling in heavy metals and toxins that it comes into contact with. Furthermore the Sodium Bentonite swells more giving it the ability to adsorb and absorb more toxins pulling them into the interior layers of the clay and carrying the them out of the body.   Calcium Bentonite does not swell as much as Sodium Bentonite and while that makes it less effective as a detoxing agent it is more effective as a remineralizer.

Another factor that makes Bentonite Clay Powder so indispensable is it’s ability to lower your body’s pH. The Bentonite will absorb some of the hydrogen from your cells enabling them to fill that space with the oxygen you so dearly need.

Bentonite clay's structure assists it in attracting and soaking up poisons on its exterior wall and then slowly drawing them into the interior center of the clay where they are held in a sort of repository.  As a result, reviving and rejuvenating your skin, revealing the brightened, tightened under layer after removing the dried, dead cells from the surface.
