Valentia Skin Detoxifying Clay Mask Review

I would love to spend some time in a luxury spa getting a nice facial and being pampered but unfortunately, my budget says otherwise. I love a good facial that will keep my skin looking younger and glowing so once a week I give myself a nice face detox to cleanse my facial skin from the elements of the environment and to remove the dirt and oil that clog my pores that makes them enlarged. I was given the opportunity to try a detoxifying clay mask to get the job done.

                                                                      
Valentia Skin Detoxifying Clay Mask 







Introducing Valentia's Skin Detoxifying Clay Mask. Here is some information about the company. The Roman Goddess of healing, Valentia, relied on nature’s gifts to heal the citizens of Umbria. Whether matriarchs seeking to maintain their youthful look or farmers seeking help for sun damaged skin, Valentia used berries, herbs, barks and other natural ingredients. We also rely on all natural ingredients due to their protective, preventative and corrective powers.

Just like our namesake, Valentia Skin Care products have been formulated with natural and organic cosmetic ingredients that will repair and protect the skin.

After performing extensive research into what skin care customers find most important, we found an overwhelming demand for skin care that is natural, free of toxins and paraben-free. Natural ingredients with an organic base have proven most effective at repairing skin damaged by sun or wind, preventing signs of aging such as wrinkles, dark spots, and reversing the effects of oxidative stress on the skin.

Here is some information about the mask. Skin Detoxifying Clay Mask - Natural and Organic Ingredients - With Kaolin Clay, Hisbiscus & Cranberry Fibers

Specially selected ingredients work together to achieve optimum results.

KEY INGREDIENTS

- Kaolin Clay:Clay minerals draw impurities, improve skin tone, and tighten pores for smoother firmer skin.

- Plant Stem Cells:Naturally decreases the level of pro-aging toxins and works to soother the skin, reduce redness, and improve evenness.

- Spirulina:A botanical stimulant full of vitamins that hydrates the skins surface and contributes to tissue regeneration of the skin.

- CoQ10:Lessens the appearance of wrinkles by reducing free radical damage and stimulating health collagen production.

- Hibiscus & Cranberry Fibers:Both lend their anti-aging properties to firm and reinforce the skin, helping to reduce the creation of new wrinkles.                             

The mask was easy to put on my face and neck. I used a warm washcloth to open my pores after I cleansed my face with my cleanser. I used my fingers to spread the mask evenly on my face. The mask has a pleasant scent that is not overpowering at all which I love. I let the mask set for 20 minutes and as it dried, I felt my skin tightening. I then took my washcloth and rinsed in warm water and used circular motions to remove the mask. I usually just rinse my face in warm water but I wanted to follow the directions and use my warm washcloth to remove the mask. It was easy to remove as well and the mask left my skin soft and my pores noticeably smaller. I was pleasantly surprised! I did notice that right under my right eyebrow there was a little irritation. My facial skin is sensitive so I just figured it was from me using my washcloth to remove the mask which I have never done before. By the time I went to bed, the irritation was gone. My skin was not red after using the clay like with other masks and that is definitely a plus for me. I am totally impressed with this clay mask and it will be apart of my weekly cleanse regimen.

Oz Naturals NEW Ancient Orient Rice Enzyme Dermafoliant Review

Having great facial skin is very important to me. I am in my 40's and I don't want to look old before I have too. I have combination skin where it is oily in my T-zones and dry around my mouth area and I have large pores on my cheeks. So finding good skincare products is crucial for me in obtaining the healthy glow that I like for my skin. I was so happy to be given the opportunity to try a new product that would help me achieve great looking skin.

According to their website, "OZ Naturals FACE SCRUB EXFOLIANT utilizes bamboo to gently exfoliate skin and unclog pores without irritation, drying or stripping.
FINALLY A FACIAL SCRUB THAT contains lactic acid and alpha lipoic acid to further help the exfoliation process by breaking down and removing dead skin cells, revealing the glow of healthy skin beneath, and assists in reducing fine lines, wrinkles and other signs of premature aging from sun damage.
ANOTHER KEY INGREDIENT, green tea extract, is rich in antioxidants and helps to prevent collagen breakdown as well as tone and protect the skin from the damaging effect of free radicals.
THE PRO-VITAMIN B5 IN OUR scrub is readily absorbed by the skin and penetrates deep down, retaining moisture and relieving dry, irritated skin, and Alpha Lipoic Acid provides anti-inflammatory effects reducing redness and blotchiness, shrinking pore size and imparting a healthy radiance to the skin
SAFE FOR ALL SKIN TYPES, our bamboo exfoliant is all natural and free of harmful ingredients".

This product was different from other facial exfoliators that I have used because it is actually in powder form. I love to use different types of products so this fit just right for me! According to the directions, you just need a nickel size amount of the powder but if you need a little more than do so and you add a little water to make a paste of the powder. Then you gently scrub your skin in a circular motion for several minutes. Then you let the product sit on your skin for five minutes to allow the lactic acid time to penetrate the skin. Then you just rinse the skin thoroughly and pat (not rub) the skin dry.  I noticed that this product helps in controlling the shine on my face and my pores are a little less noticeable when I put on makeup. This product has a clean smell so it is great for someone who is scent sensitive. I love how the bottle looks and the top of the bottle twists to open the little holes on top to dispense the powder and closes the same way. This product is great for anyone who has sensitive skin because this product can be used for all skin types.  It is suggested that you use this product 3 times a week.
