The volcanic ash clay contains sodium bentonite, a substance that contains a strong negative charge that bonds with the positive charge in toxins to remove impurities. This clay is rich in minerals and has antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral properties. It is widely used as a natural skin purifier to cleanse, purify and detoxify the skin. The ashes act as a mild exfoliator by removing the dead cells from the skin’s surface, giving it an even skin tone. Volcanic ashes eliminate toxins from skin pores. They control the oil/sebum production by absorbing excess oil/sebum, making the ashes a key ingredient for treatments of oily and acne skin.
