Hibou Naturel - Deep Cleanse Yellow Mineral Clay Mask - Review

Hibou Naturel is a natural and organic skin care range made in Melbourne, their products contain only natural ingredients including essential oils and botanical extracts. The creater of Hibou Naturel originally designed this range for her daughter's skin regime, as she wanted gentle and safe products which could be used daily on pre-teen skin. Their products also suit all ages, particularly sensitive skin.   

I have been using their Deep Cleanse Yellow Mineral Clay Mask and it feels absolutely beautiful.  An intense, but gentle healing mineral treatment which can be used on face and body. On first application it feels so soothing and cool and the scent is heavenly.  I wondered what made it smell so beautiful and when I looked at the ingredients I noticed it contains rose infused water.   It also contains cucumber fruit extract, which must help to give it a lovely cooling effect on my skin, along with the soothing effects of the clay.  

Australian yellow clay is the main ingredient and this is the first time I have used this type of clay.   Rich in magnesium, silica and iron oxide, its powerful healing properties are valuable for restoring healthy skin tones. Yellow clay is the clay of choice for skin problems such as  dermatitis, psoriasis, eczema, ulcers and acne. It gently exfoliates skin, cleanses, tones, stimulates blood circulation, draws out toxins, hydrates and  feeds your skin, without leaving it feeling dry. ​ 

Before I used this clay mask I was worried that it might end up feeling cakey on my face, but in fact, it’s the opposite, the texture of this mask is smooth and creamy and when applied makes my skin feel silky, not at all what I imagined when I first thought of clay. I found it to be nourishing and hydrating and left my skin feeling super clean and soft.    I left the mask on for 10 minutes, let the healthy minerals absorb into my skin and washed it off easily.   

Free from parabens, artificial fragrances & preservatives, petroleum and sulphates. 

These are the ingredients, as you can see, only pure and safe - 

​Ingredients: Australian yellow clay (montmorillonite, quartz, anatase), rosa damascene.miller (rose infused water), purified water, organic rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary extract), Australian Jojoba Oil, natural olive oil, organic calendula, cucumber extract.

This clay mask is effective as a cleanser and as a gentle exfoliate and gentle enough for all skin types.  It sssists in minimising pores and wrinkles, "just like a microdermabrasion in a jar without the harshness! "

I felt it gave my skin a freshness and firmness, especially when my skin was feeling tired, a very luxurious and inexpensive pick me up.   

This healing clay mask can be purchased at Hibou Naturel.
