Q: How often can I use green clay?
A: For oily skin, 1 to 3 times per week may work well. For drier or sensitive skin, start with once weekly and blend with hydrating ingredients.

Q: Should I let the clay mask fully dry?
A: Many people prefer to rinse before it becomes fully dry to help minimise tightness, especially on sensitive or dry areas.

Q: Can I mix it with hydrosols instead of water?
A: Yes, hydrosols are a great option and can make the mask feel more pleasant and aromatic.

Q: Is this clay suitable for sensitive skin?
A: It can be, but sensitive skin typically does best with shorter mask times, less frequent use, and more hydrating mix-ins.

Q: What makes it “French green” clay?
A: It refers to the origin and mineral profile, with a high illite content that gives the clay its characteristic colour and cleansing feel.
