How’s this for irony—if you want to get your face extra clean, smear some mud on it! Although it seems counter-intuitive, a mud mask is actually one of the oldest solutions for a variety of skin problems. Add a few Dead Sea minerals to the mix, and you’ll see a virtually miraculous transformation in your complexion.
Why Use a Mask?
Even if you follow a regular regimen of cleansing, your pores can still get clogged with an accumulation of oil, makeup, and pollutants from the environment. Although you would never want to apply a mask every day, using it once a week or every few days gives you a chance to clean your pores deeply, stimulate your circulation, and remove dead skin cells. The result? Skin that looks and feels clean, toned, and vibrant.
How Does a Mask Accomplish These Effects?
In the case of mud masks, you apply a layer of damp mud to cleansed skin and let it set for a period of time. As the mud dries, it draws out the oil and grime from the pores, and the tightening effect has a subtle massage-like action that stimulates circulation, bringing nourishing oxygen to the skin cells. Once you remove the mask, the oil and impurities come away with it.
Many mud masks must be rinsed off, but the Miracle Noir Mask by Dead Sea Premier comes with a unique specialized magnet that actually lifts off the mineral-enriched mud, leaving behind a light film of essential oils to keep the skin from drying out.
Your skin may be dry, oily, or combination; or it may be sensitive, allergic, or prone to blemishes. Finding the right mask for your skin type may be a challenge, but a little careful research will help you discover the mask that will work a miracle for you.
