Bentonite Clay Natural Facial Mask

Bentonite Clay Best for Normal, Combination, Acne-Prone or Oily Skin Bentonite clay is one of the more popular clays to make DIY clay mask recipes. Bentonite clay is excellent for oily skin. It absorbs oil, dirt and grime from your skin. It is also electrically charged, so it works like a magnet to attract toxins and dirt. For this reason, it’s important that you never use metal measuring spoons or mixing spoons; always use plastic, wood, or silicone with bentonite clay. Bentonite clay can leave your face red for a few hours, so don’t use this type of clay before work or before a date. It’s best to mix it with apple cider vinegar for a smoother mask. Water and other liquids will work, but they can create a lumpy mask.
