Saturday I had a really long day and what I was looking forward to was the thought of a nice long bath waiting for me at home...
So when I got home you can imagine what was the first thing I did, set up my bath. Warm water, a few drops of rosehip oil with some orange blossom essential oil and a nice handful of mud! Actually, it was Manicouagan clay, this gray sandy mud that comes from the north of Quebec from the region of Manicouagan, where it gets his name.
It all started 215 million years ago when a big meteorite crashed in this region that created the unique set up for the development of this special clay. I will spare you the scientific details which can explain the many reasons why this clay is so great and go right back to my bath tub experience.
As I was saying...I placed a handful of this mud into the bath and went right in. Most of the mud got diluted into the bath but I kept a small walnut size dollop of mud to play with (I lost my rubber duck during my last vacation) and I spread the mud all over my face, chest, shoulders and my back.
First thing I noticed was that there are very small particles in this mud and as I rubbed it on my face I realized that this is like an exfoliation at the same time, those small particles were buffing away all the dead skin. After my bath, my skin was glowing. Not only did the clay cleanse and exfoliate but it felt as though my skin was rejuvenated, like a day at the beach or something.
I have to say that working in the cosmetic industry, I have tried a lot of products. Many have claims to do almost magical things, make you look younger and more beautiful. Well this product also has many claims, I cannot vouch for all of those claims but I gotta say that it definitely cleanses, exfoliates and revitalizes you skin all in one step. And you can see some results after just one use. That in itself, is already very impressive.
I give this product a 9 out of 10. The reason its not a full 10 on 10 is because you have to clean the bathtub after your mud bath, it leaves a gray dusty residue that has to be rinced away. But aside from the cleaning this is an excellent product. Try Argile Eau Mer's clay it's really great!
