The Benefits of Enriching Bath Water With Clay

SOAK is an explorative series into the art and science of bathing. Discovering how the act can contribute to overall health and wellbeing.

Soaking in clay enriched water can provide a gentle detoxification while replenishing skins minerals.

Clay gently encourages skin renewal by loosening dead skin cells, drawing out excess oil, lifting product buildup and cleansing environmental impurities without stripping the skin.

Rich in naturally occurring minerals, including magnesium, calcium and silica, clay can help remineralise complexion, leaving it smoother and more resilient.

In conjunction with warm water, clay’s natural stimulatory qualities aid microcirculation, imparting a brighter, healthier appearance.

Certain varieties, such as French green clay, are also known for their calming effect — soothing inflammation and reducing redness to create a gentler bathing experience for reactive or blemish-prone skin.
