Description: A delightfully unique and luxuriant superfine clay powder which is nutrient dense and rich in minerals such as Silica, Magnesium, Calcium, etc. Sourced exclusively from the heart of Morocco's Atlas Mountains, our Ghassoul clay is an essential part of timeless Hammam rituals, formed over millennia by the very volcanic lava that shaped this extraordinary region. Around the world, it graces exclusive professional spas with its remarkable cleansing, nourishing, exfoliating, and rejuvenating properties, bearing the authentic essence of its ancient geological origins.

Ghassoul comes from the Arabic word "ghassala", meaning "to wash". When moistened with water, or floral water, the feel on the skin is smooth and almost lubricating whilst also exfoliating and drawing. It feels almost as if soap has been applied, but without foaming - the perfect way to cleanse the face, body, or even hair, without soap or chemical surfactants.

• Gentle and softening to the skin, including sensitive.
• Highly efficient at absorbing excess oils from the skin and scalp.
