The beautiful queen of ancient Egypt, Cleopatra used to love clay masks and flaunt her beautiful skin. Clay masks not only help with Oily skin, blackheads, acnes and large pores but the minerals refreshes and rejuvenates skin.
There are different types of clays like Rhassoul Clay, Bentonite Clay, French Green Clay, Kaolin clay, white clay and so on which works for different skin types. I will share a dedicated post on that later but today I am sharing different types of clay masks that will works best for your skin type.
