This year, at the ESI Show, we were on the hunt to find new companies that offer unique products. We were fortunate to meet quite a few and one of them is Dor Mauri. We have tried Dor Mauri Mineral Clay Mask and Cleanser and we are thrilled with the results!
We want to share the whole story with you.
Dor Mauri Mineral Clay Mask is made from pure natural mineral clay found deep beneath the tides of the Canadian coast. 14,000 years in the making and this remarkable clay has many unique features. Most importantly, the clay is located in a unique region, available for extraction only during specific tidal conditions occurring four times a year. It is extracted in a most environmentally conscious fashion and takes care to minimize the impact on the surrounding flora and fauna. This clay has beneficial scientific properties ideal for skin applications. It contains extraordinarily small particles which are more easily absorbed and provide greater detoxification and deeper skin cleansing.
When we at CosmeticPortal tried the Dor Mauri Mineral Clay Mask, we were pleasantly surprised. It is easily applied on the face and is suitable for sensitive skin. We noted that the clay can be applied to the entire body as well. What we noted in particular is the small amount that is needed for the whole face, making this product very economical. It was applied on the face for 15 minutes with glowing results. The skin felt more breathable and one can really feel the cleansing effect. The mask is also easily washed off with warm water simplifying usage. Although most of us at CosmeticPortal have sensitive skin and are allergic to most products, this mask left our skin feeling soft and refreshed, alive and glowing.
The Science Behind the Clay
The most important feature of Dor Mauri Mineral Clay is the extraordinarily small size of its particles. This small size leads to amazing absorptive ability, which in turn attracts the positively charged bacteria, thereby detoxifying and deep cleansing the skin. The clay exfoliates away dead skin cells and helps stimulate blood circulation to the newly exposed skin cells.
In tests conducted over the past twenty years it has been found that most clays have a pH factor range from 7 to 14 on the alkaline side of the scale. Dor Mauri has a pH factor of 6.5 to 7.3, which is as close to neutral as possible for a clay. This is very desirable for skin and hair applications, because it restores the skin’s PH to a neutral level, balancing sebum secretion, which is associated with oily skin and acne. Dor Mauri Mineral Clay in its natural state has moisture content of 35.5% and contains 62% silica content. The rich silica content directly contributes to the promotion of greater skin elasticity and overall skin health.
Some popular topical application for clay compositions like Dor Mauri Mineral Clay includes:
· Cosmetic facial and body masks for skin improvement
· Poultice and compresses for bruising and injuries
· Salve for burns, cuts and scalds
· Athletes foot
· Bee stings and insect bites
· Scalp message
This mask is ideal for all skin types, especially for sun-damaged skin and for dark spots, pigmentation and freckling, sensitive skin including eczema and oily, acne prone skin.
The mask can be used on the professional level and sold as a home care product. We recommend this product for its good results had in a very natural manner.
