Cosmetic ingredient, French origin, green clay.
This is green clay from France. It has purifying properties for the skin, with cleansing effects, the ability to absorb oil and dirt, moisturizing benefits, and the potential for skin regeneration.
Green clay is a natural mineral from the phyllosilicate family (such as talc and mica). It is composed of hydrated aluminum silicate, and its color appears green due to its high iron oxide content. Its lamellar structure provides very excellent absorption properties. Clay has the ability to absorb liquids such as water and swell like a sponge. Clay has the ability to adsorb, meaning it can fix molecules to its surface. This ability to fix molecules is due to the negative charge of the clay. The negative charge is explained by the presence of minerals (the more concentrated the clay is in inorganic salts, the more negatively charged it becomes). In the Middle Ages, clay was used for healing purposes both externally and internally. Externally, clay was mainly used in the form of masks and poultices, possessing astringent, soothing, and healing properties. 〇 Reports of effectiveness: Adsorption/absorption action (Gubitosa et al., 2019) Cleansing action (Gubitosa et al., 2019) Regenerative action (Valenti et al., 2012) 〇 Components (Williams et al., 2008) Aluminum, calcium, iron, magnesium, silicon, etc.
