What Is A Clay Mask and How Does it Benefit Your Skin?

Loaded with benefits, clay masks solve skin concerns like dullness, excessive oiliness, suntan, pigmentation and uneven skin tone. Specially designed for oily or acne-prone skin, clay masks also help in purifying and minimising your pores. You must be thinking why are we raving about it? Clay masks have a unique ability to gently draw out impurities from the congested pores leaving your skin shine-free. It works as a great substitute for your elaborate facials and does wonders for dull and congested skin.

Some of the best benefits of using a clay mask are:

• They deep exfoliate, clean up pores and help in removing all dead skin and impurities from your skin

You can pick them when you need a weekly deep cleansing, tan removal, exfoliation or want to achieve an even skin tone. Yes, they work great for nourishing your skin for a long period as they typically work on removing the impurities.
