A ready-made green clay paste that purifies oily skin in ten minutes
Cattier Ready-to-Use Green Clay is a ready-to-use clay paste for combination to oily skin that can be applied as a face mask or as a poultice. It blends two green clays, illite and montmorillonite, with kaolin, a white clay, so there is nothing to mix. Green clay is naturally rich in minerals and has strong absorbing properties: it draws out excess sebum and impurities, helps unclog pores and leaves the skin looking clearer and more even. The formula is 99% natural origin and made in France.
The texture
A smooth, thick green paste that spreads easily straight from the tube. It stays creamy on the skin for the ten-minute pose and rinses off with lukewarm water, leaving the skin matte and fresh. It has no added fragrance.
Who it suits
- Combination skin with a shiny T-zone
- Oily skin prone to blackheads and blemishes
- Anyone who wants a quick weekly purifying mask without mixing powder
- Fans of traditional clay poultices, as described by the brand
Worth knowing before you buy: Clay can dry the skin if it is left to harden, so keep the mask moist while it sets and always follow with a moisturiser. This 400g format contains benzyl alcohol as a preservative, unlike the smaller 100ml tube. Dry or sensitive skin is better suited to a gentler white clay.
How long one tube lasts
Used once a week as a face mask, the 400g tube lasts several months. Used for poultices, which need a 2 to 3cm layer, it goes much faster.
