French Green Clay

French Green Clay, scientifically knows as Illite or Montmorillonite, is a mineral-rich substance excavated from French quarries. Its distinct green hue comes from iron oxides and decomposed plant materials, giving the clay exceptional detoxifying and purifying qualities. It is known for absorbing and removing impurities from the skin, creating healthy and glowing skin. French Green Clay is also suitable for all skin types and can also be used in poultices to treat arthritis, sore muscles, sprains, cuts, bruises, insect bites, stings, and minor burns. Caution should be exercised as clays may stain fabric and it is meant for external use only.
