FrançaisMagnesium (Mg) – is vital for repairing and maintaining healthy body cells. Magnesium is an essential mineral linked to hundreds of metabolic processes within the body, affecting among other things nucleic acid production (DNA, RNA), which promotes regeneration of cells. Magnesium has an ability to cleanse your skin and detoxify the entire epidermis. Allergic reactions can be relieved or eliminated with the help of Magnesium. Magnesium enhances the natural hydration of your skin and encourages the production of collagen already present in your skin cells.
Argil [arr-zheel']
Green clay
It is powerful yet gentle. It is ancient. It is rare. It is Katari Argil green clay and the best kept secret in beauty. Shhh! :) Handpicked from a quarry from an ancient sea bed, it has a combination of minerals your chemistry teacher will find impressive and cosmetologists call a 'work horse' of facial masques for how effective it is at cleansing skin and keeping it blemish-free.
Without ever affecting skin sensitivities, Argil powerfully traps toxins, pulls excess oils, tones skin, and puts skin cell growth into a healthy pattern, rejuvenating and lifting skin as it cleanses it gently and deeply.
Why use Argil?
Due it its superabsorbent quality, Argil green clay pulls impurities and toxins out of skin and remineralizes skin to keep it healthy and balanced (pH-balanced). Argil is naturally hypoallergenic and pH-neutral. It is a perfect product to use for sensitive, oily, dry, and acneic skin alike. This rare clay balances all skin types and keeps skin toned, clear, and healthy.
What is Argil?
Argil is a green clay of bentonite family of clays. It is a single-ingredient naturally occuring mineral (clay) that formed from plants, salt, and organic matter left after an ancient sea dried up and formed what is now known Atlas Mountains. Argil boasts an impressive combination of minerals, which includes Iron, Magnesium, Calcium, and hundreds of trace minerals instrumental for healthy skin cell regeneration.

Clays differ. Clays are usually super absorbent - they tend to trap any impurities and toxins out of their environment. This is why is so important to know where your clay came from. This is why we hand-pick our Argil green clay from our remote quarry from a prestine location untouched by pollution and precipitation. We want to make sure that the only impurities that our clay traps are the ones that leave your skin and body.

Chemistry
Not just one mineral but a particular combination of them acts within Argil and makes it the best natural clay you can possibly find and use.
Here are some of the minerals that make Argil:
Magnesium (Mg)
Calcium (Ca)
Calcium (Ca) – does a lot to keep your skin cells going:
• Regulates cell division, shedding off dead cells and encouraging new cell production
• Stimulates healthy skin color through pigment control
• Preserves moisture barrier to reduce dryness and increase in cell regeneration
• Responsible for production of age-defying and cancer-fighting antioxidants
• Positively affects nervous system, providing a calming effect
Calcium does a fine job preventing damage to the cell structure, fighting premature aging, developing resistance to wrinkles and skin cancer through its links to antioxidant production.
Iron (Fe)
Iron (Fe) – absorbed in the blood stream, this mineral helps transport oxygen to skin and hair, working together with Ca and Mg toward healthy hair growth. Iron in conjunction with other minerals found in Argil helps maintain hair color (slows down loss of pigments leading to grey hair) and prevents hair loss. Iron is also instrumental in promoting good skin tone.
Gypsum (CaSO4)
Gypsum (CaSO4) – another name for hydrous calcium sulfate - allows Argil to glitter, but not only. Gypsum clay masques have been used all over the world for many years to rid skin of acne. Although humans don’t have a need for Gypsum as a mineral supplement on its own, this element aids all others in the Argil’s composition to make it an even stronger agent to fight skin and hair problems.
Organic Matter (aka good stuff)
Organic Matter (aka good stuff) – decomposed organic plant and other calcium-laden matter from the ancient sea floor gives Argil its distinct color together with Iron Oxides (Iron enriched with Oxygen), which is very similar to the Dead Sea minerals and provides dozens of trace minerals for skin and hair nourishment.
Acidity (pH)
Acidity (pH) – Green Clay has a 7.26 pH-balance, which is acidity level closest to human blood. Products with pH significantly different from our skin contribute to proliferation of acne bacteria and other skin problems. Argil is neutral and nonreactive to skin, which helps rid skin of various problems by naturally balancing it.

To take best advantage of the benefits of Argil green clay, here are a few tips. We always apply Argil on slightly wet skin before shower and steam skin in the shower to allow clay to get deep into pores. We always moisturize skin after a facial masque with hypoallergenic Hoba Oil (jojoba oil). For extra moisturizing boost and added exfoliation, you can add 1 part of Barie Powder to your Argil masque. Mixing Argil with just water is enough to get the most from this super-charged powerful ingredient but if you like, you can add cocoa powder or honey or aloe to the mix (check out our recipes for more info). Use Argil green clay masque 1-2 a week for clean, tight pores, and healthy, blemish-free skin.
