Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay 2LB Deep Pore Cleansing Facial & Body Mask Version-1

After originally purchasing a single container (from another seller on Amazon) and achieving great results with my naturally curly hair, I decided to purchase a two-pack from this seller. The packaging looked authentic but when I opened one container, I thought the color was a little off. When I mixed the mask with apple cider vinegar, it bubbled like usual, so I didn't think anything of it. However, after my treatment, my hair felt dry and wiry. I went and bought a container from Whole Foods and sure enough, the color and consistency were different. The clay should be a deeper shade of olive green and more granular. The two I received from this seller are more baby powder-like, as if the clay is mixed with cornstarch. I'm adding a picture to note the difference. The top is the clay I received from Amazon. The bottom is the one from Whole Foods. I will be returning my purchase and will not buy from this seller again.

No complaints. Only surprise was that I did not realize it was green clay. It is only tinted green and not a bright obnoxious green color so this did not end up being an issue.I am using it for hair detox and acne on my teenage son. I thought it helped his acne. The small closed bumps reduced and the over all number decreased with use. However, the inflammed acne bumps seemed brighter. I was not at all perturbed by this since after reading almost all of the reviews I suspected the deep acne would be drawn out and look worse before it gets better. I will update this review if I notice otherwise. Meanwhile, I am working on my son's consistency in use :)As for the smell - the problem is that people are using apple cider vinegar (ACV) that holds its smell more potent and longer. If the smell is a problem then simply use plain distilled white vinegar. I only noticed a whiff of sulfur upon mixing it that was gone by the time it was fully mixed. It does bubble up - pretty cool. I found it was less irritating and easier to remove when I added a little olive oil and water instead of all vinegar. It took longer to dry but was easily remove with a silicone edged utensil (spatula) over peice of paper towel.This is much cheaper than the food grade and I was unsuccessful in finding out if they use high grade steel or not in the mining - since the contact with any other metal can neutralize its detoxing potential. This was the only reason I gave it 4 stars and not 5. Anyway, it is a lot for the price at about $6/lb when wholesale food grade can be purchased at $9/lb. If you are using it frequently or in large amounts this makes sense.

I was very skeptical that this would work on my cystic acne, but it’s a miracle!My advice (what works for me)1. Add a pinch (1/8-1/4 tsp) of Dead Sea Salt (Not epsom sat or other salt)2. Use Apple cider vinegar not water3. Use it every 1-3 days when your skin is bad then once or twice a week for maintainence.Observations1. When this dries it doesn’t pulse, it’s so itchy I want to scratch my skin off! That being said I don’t think it’s more effective to let it dry, just add a touch more vinegar or even water to the edges of you feel it itching.2. The redness only seems to be an issue for areas that it’s dried, so just keep moist. It does disappear after an hour or two.3. It may clog the sink, shower, or tub with frequent use, so Make sure to flush with lots of water or even some vinegar.

There is a reason why this mask has so many great reviews! It is amazing and such a good price and value! As it dries it does tighten like crazy! I have sensitive skin and my face is red for an hour or so after! I will say you have to be careful when rinsing off as it comes off in chunks and could potentially clog your drain. I find that it works best with apple cider vinegar. It definitely cleans out your pores and makes your skin feel super soft after.

mmmm this clay is awesome <3 Its lasted foooorever and it never disappoints! I like to put some in my baths for detoxing or make a face mask with it with apple cider vinegar and activated charcoal and it clears out my pores so well! The day after using it, my face is so smooth and soft and my pores look clean and smaller. Ive used it so much my fiancé is now doing it with me!

I've been itching to try this stuff, literally. I bought the 2 pack (we're going to be using this stuff for everything) and couldn't be wait to make my first mud mask!I opened it easily as it was only sealed my a small sticker to show it hadn't been tampered with. Just twist and it's gone. Then I took a large protein shake scoop (since I hoard them) and a large wooden popsicle stick (for wax applications or whatever) since you aren't supposed to use metal with clay, and put some into my scooper. I then poured some Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar in (didn't measure, just eyeballed it, about equalamounts) and began stirring with the stick. I was surprised it fizzed. The clay seemed to deflate so I added a bit more of both and stirred it till it was thick and smoothish. The slathered it all over my face with the stick like a big kid.The jar said to use a few inches thick on your face and wait like 20 minutes or so. Well, a few inches was way too much and it took like an hour to dry, and still wasn't fully dry in some parts. I never felt the pulsating tingle people talk about but the mask got tight due to drying so I moved my jaws and head to kinda crack the mask and peeled it off placing the pieces in a paper towel. Pretty sure the sink would have gotten clogged. It stuck arount the temples and eyes so I used a hot towel to loosen and scrub it off. My forehead and eye area was. Right red, as expected, but that went away. I massaged a small amount of coconut oil all over my face and lips and was shocked at how bright and radiant my skin looked. It was nearly immediate! Can't wait to try a foot detox next week!

Simple à utiliser, et donne une sensation de propreté !
