Most clays have the ability to absorb toxins from the skin, such as dirt, make-up, bacteria and oil. Most clays can also remove dead skin cells to promote faster skin regeneration.

Where clays differ is in how much they absorb from the skin. French pink clay is great for most skin types as it's not overly harsh on the skin and its natural oils. Some clays can be so dry that unless you're using a super-moisturising moisturiser afterwards, you can end up with excessive dryness, flaking and skin reactions like increased acne breakouts and redness. This is far from the intention of a good clay mask.
