Frequently Asked Questions
How often can I use a turmeric and kaolin clay mask?
Start with once a week and observe how your skin responds. Avoid allowing the mask to dry until it feels uncomfortably tight.
Can turmeric temporarily stain the skin?
Yes. Turmeric has a strong natural colour, so use a small measured amount and rinse thoroughly. Protect light-coloured clothing and towels.
What does kaolin clay add to the mask?
Kaolin clay gives the mask structure and helps absorb excess surface oil while remaining one of the gentler cosmetic clays.
Is this mask suitable for sensitive skin?
Skin responses differ. Patch test first, use a short contact time and stop if irritation occurs.
