Making Good Scents™

French green clay, also known as illite clay, is a natural mineral-rich clay sourced from regions in France. It is known for its green color, which comes from its high content of iron oxides and decomposed plant material. In cosmetics, French green clay is prized for its detoxifying, exfoliating, and oil-absorbing properties. It is commonly used in face masks and cleansers to draw out impurities, tighten pores, and improve skin tone, especially for oily or acne-prone skin.
