Bentonite clay: 4 awesome benefits for skin care

  • Written by NewsServices.com

Bentonite clay has long been a stunning skin care treatment. An absorbent natural product, it is created when volcanic ash continues to age into its form, and takes its name from the town of Fort Benton, Wyoming, where it is sourced in great abundance (although it is collected in many other parts of the world!).

It is known for its extremely high quality absorption process, which can even pick up fine particles like bacteria, dirt and nasty toxins from your skin. What’s more, its high cation exchange quality can attract positively charged ions, another healthy benefit for the user.

Let’s take a look at four of the outstanding benefits that the best bentonite clay Australia has will provide for your skin:

  1. It’s a fantastic toxin remover

This product reduces the impact of bodily toxins through its ability to absorb them through the skin. You can also use this wonderful product for foot and armpit detoxes too, ensuring a positive way to remove unwanted elements from your body.

How to create an awesome detoxer:

  1. Combine two tablespoons of the product with apple cider vinegar. Mix to make a mask.

  2. Apply the form to your foot or armpit and leave it for around 10 minutes.

  3. Rinse it with warm water.

2. It’s ideal for reducing acne

The best bentonite clay Australia has is a wonderful absorbent that can help oily skin. It absorbs any excess oil from the skin’s surface as well as inhibiting bacteria, dirt and germs from getting stuck to your skin. This reduces the risk of acne, as well as providing relief if you already have it.

A mask made from this wonderful product can also help with skin inflammation and pimples.

How to make this remedy:

  1. Add water to the product.

  2. Turn into a thick face mask & apply to the face.

  3. Allow the mask to rest for 20 minutes before rinsing it with warm water.

  4. You can use this product a couple of times a week.

3. It can help remedy poison ivy rashes

This invasive species causes problems across Australia, and so you don’t know when you might need a solid remedy for it. If you receive an allergic reaction to this problem, with skin turning red and experiencing discomfort, then you will want to remedy the problem straight away.

Here is one way you can remedy it using bentonite clay:

  1. Clean the affected skin with a mild cleanser or soap once you come into contact with the poison ivy.

  2. Combine water and one tablespoon of the product.

  3. Apply it to the affected area.

  4. Apply a clean bandage to the affected area.

  5. Continue this process until the problem is alleviated.

4. It can help with diaper rash

The best bentonite clay Australia has can help with diaper rash. According to one study, 90 percent of infants who were experiencing diaper rash were healed after three days of using the product to treat the problem.

Note: Please speak to your doctor before using it as a treatment for your child’s diaper rash.

Here is how to make a remedy for diaper rash:

  1. Combine water and the product power (you can also use shea butter or coconut oil with the powder for this problem).

  2. Apply it to the baby’s rash.

  3. Keep the remaining combination in a glass container or plastic, ensuring not to store it in metal containers as it will likely absorb the metal properties and thus render it unusable as a treatment.
