The Benefits Of Applying A Clay Mask On Oily Skin

Posted on December 21, 2020August 4, 2021

With the evolution of sheet masks, clay mask has become less popular simply because it’s easy to use and locks the moisture in your skin but what about some major skin issues that most of the oily skins have to deal with namely blackheads, open pores, shiny T-zone, and excessive oil secretion. Sheets masks are nice and fancy but clay masks are a must if you have oily skin.
In the feed, we’ll be discussing the benefits of using a clay mask on oily skin so that you fully stick to the routine. Keep reading!

Controls Sebum Production

Excess oil secretion is the major issue with oily skin and to control that clay mask proves to be a real help. Clay masks help in reducing oil production thus giving your skin a mattifying effect. But one thing to keep in mind while using a clay mask is not to over-use it. If you apply clay mask more than once a week you boost the oil secretion.
Over usage of clay mask dries out the skin thus resulting in more oil production. Hence, make sure you’re using it not more than twice a week.

Unclogs Pores and Shrinks The Size Of The Pores

The foremost property of a clay mask is to draw out all the impurities, cleansing your skin thoroughly thus helping in unclogging the clogged pores. Clogged pores are a major reason for a hell lot of skin issues and clay mask draws all the dirt, grime, and bacteria out of the clogged pores. It acts like a magnet for clogged pores pulling out all the dirt and bacteria.
If you’re not willing to apply clay mask all over the face you can only apply it around your nose to unclog your clogged pores. Clogged pores can lead to blackheads and when your pores are clean you can see a significant reduction in blackheads and whiteheads formation.
When the pores are cleaned and not clogged, they will become less noticeable. Hence, with regular usage, you can see a shrink in size of your large pores.

Nourishes The Skin

Clay mask also nourishes the skin and boosts the natural moisture content. When you apply clay mask over the skin it tends to bind the cells giving an appearance of youthful, beautiful, and glowing skin.
There is a myth associated with clay masks that they dry out your skin giving a stretchy feel but that’s not true. If you’re not over-using a clay mask you won’t feel any dry or stretchy effect over the skin. Also, it’s important to choose the correct type of clay mask that is formulated especially for your skin type.

Helps In Dealing With Breakouts

The anti-bacterial properties of clay help in controlling the bacteria formation thus reducing the breakouts. As mentioned earlier the clay draws out all the toxins off your skin giving a clear and glowing complexion. Clay has a strong negative charge that binds to the negatively charged toxins such as harmful bacteria thus pulling them out when applied in the form of a mask.
So, if your skin is acne-prone you should definitely use a clay mask every once a week helping in controlling the acne breakouts.

Repairs And Rejuvenates Skin

Clay masks are known to repair the damaged skin cells enabling regeneration of skin cells and tissues. Also, clay masks rebuild the damaged skin barrier promoting healthy and youthful skin.
A strengthened skin barrier is really very important. The skin barrier is a protective layer of the skin that guards your skin against external damage. So, it’s really important to have a strong and strengthened skin barrier.
