Most of you know about my obsession with Masks of all kinds but I especially love a good mud mask! There is just some sort of satisfaction that comes from the feeling as the mask dries, like you can feel it drawing all the impurities out of your pores!
This Moroccan Ghassoul Clay Mask by Zakia's Morocco is a perfect example of an awesome mud mask. What makes this mud mask unique is not that it's a powder, which allows you to create your own individual masks but that it can also be used as soap, skin conditioner, shampoo, and as a body mask. Talk about a product that multi-tasks!
This ancient natural and organic clay is found deep under the Atlas Mountains is mined for its unique composition and properties, it's very high in trace minerals such as silica, magnesium, iron, calcium, potassium and sodium and has been used for centuries by the Moroccan women. This mineral rich clay is known for its extraordinary power of absorption of impurities from skin and hair. Since the mineral content is so high it has unprecedented astringent properties, and absorption properties and is a highly effective clay for cleansing and detoxification.
Clinical studies have shown the following results using the Moroccan Ghassoul Clay Mask:

I use the Moroccan Ghassoul Clay Mask by Zakia's Morocco once a week and it leaves my skin feel rejuvenated, clean, toned and detoxed! It has also helped made my skin look and feel more smooth. I even tested it out on my hair by mixing a little in my normal shampoo and it really helped remove all the residual residue from all the hair products that I use so now it will be something I do at least once a month!
