What is Rhassoul Clay and where does it come from?
From Morocco comes this remarkable natural source, reddish brown cosmetic clay known as Rhassoul Clay. It has been used for over 1400 years as a soap, shampoo, and skin conditioner, and the finest spas across the globe currently utilize it for therapeutic benefits.

Mined deep beneath the Atlas Mountains in Eastern Morocco it must be extracted under extremely special conditions. Through meticulous selection, and extensive contact with the raw material we are proud to offer this rich Rhassoul Clay that is truly unique in quality and purity. When first mined, Rhassoul Clay appears as a polished brown, soap-like clay, which is chunky in appearance and resembling rocks. After further refinement and micronization, the end product is a smooth almost silken earth.

How does it work?

Because Rhassoul Clay can be used for a variety of professional applications, it is an invaluable enhancement for spa treatments and for personal use. Its extraordinary power of absorption makes it more effective than other clays for cleansing, detoxi-fication, and general skin treatment. It can be used as soap, skin conditioner, shampoo, and facial and body mask and it washes like soap and leaves a unique, sweet scent on the skin.

As Rhassoul Clay contains higher percentages of silica and magnesium along with potassium and calcium, than other clays, Rhassoul Clay appears to be far more effective. In addition to this, due to its greater cosmetic qualities, (i.e. its ability to swell with the addition of water) Rhassoul Clay achieves better results in skin treatment. The mineral properties of Rhassoul Clay were studied extensively and presented at the 12th meeting of the National Institute of Phytotherapy in Paris in 1985. Rhassoul Clay contains a high percentage of silica, magnesium, potassium, and calcium. Rhassoul Clays most impressive properties in skin improvement are its capacity of absorption and adsorption due to its high level of ion exchange. Clinical studies have been conducted by two different research laboratories in the United States to evaluate Rhassoul Clays use for skin conditions. The results of this single-use Rhassoul Clay study produced these findings.
