Natural clays have been used throughout history to help the body get rid of toxins. Even animals instinctively turn to eating clay during times of illness. Bentonite clay is known for its ability to draw out toxins from the skin, and can be used both internally and externally. This clay has a strong negative charge which bonds to the positive charge in toxins. Therefore it absorbs the toxins and expels them from the body.
Bentonite clay has the same effect on the skin; it draws out impurities from the skin tissue. Due to its ability to absorb, the clay helps remove excess sebum from the skin, and to shrink and tighten irritated and enlarged pores, leaving your skin clear and soft.
