How Often Can I Use Clay for Skin & Hair?

Well, it depends on your skin condition and your skin type. Usually, people use clays on their skin weekly. We don’t recommend using it everyday. If you have oily skin, try using them once a week, and if it doesn’t irritate your skin, double it by using it twice a week. 

If you have dry, sensitive skin, try using the cosmetic clays no more than twice per week. Using cosmetic clays such as Bentonite Clay can remove sebum and skin’s natural oil so it can feel dry after using a clay mask on your skin. Keep in mind if you use clay masks too frequently, your skin may become dry and irritated.

Always do a small patch test on your arm before using it all over the face, especially if your skin is sensitive. If irritation occurs, discontinue use. Some clays, especially Bentonite Clay, can be too drying for those with dry skin. If a reaction occurs, immediately remove the clay using warm water.
