Clay mask
Ghassoul is probably the most traditional form of hair and skin cleaning in Morocco. Ghassoul is obtained from ground clay. In Europe, nature-conscious users like to use Ghassoul as a natural face mask. Rich in minerals and without any chemicals, Moroccan clay gently pampers and cleanses skin of all ages.
Ghassoul is often referred to as “lava earth” in Europe, but has nothing in common with the volcanic rock. The name Lavaerde is more related to the Latin term “lavare” for “wash”, which also means the Arabic term Ghassoul. Ghassoul is a powder that is extracted from this clay without any additives and consists mainly of silicon and magnesium. To clean skin and hair, the powder is mixed with water to form a paste. The peculiarity of this pulp, in addition to its cleansing effect, is that the protective acid film – i.e. the pH value – of the skin is retained.
If you want to give your facial skin a treat and trust nature, the Ghassoul face mask is just the thing for you.
Ghassoul
Ghassoul is a natural cosmetic product and is obtained in the Moroccan Atlas Mountains. In Europe it is often referred to as lava earth. However, it is a clay mineral that is mined underground.
Ghassoul consists mainly of silicon and magnesium. In North Africa it has been used for skin and body care for centuries.
Ghassoul is a pure natural product. That is why Ghassoul, which means “wash” by the way, contains no surfactants, no dyes and preservatives. The purely natural cosmetic product Ghassoul from Morocco does not dry out the skin like conventional cleaning agents and soaps. The natural protective film of the skin is preserved when cleaning with Ghassoul!
At Konuz we offer the clay as a fine powder. To use it, Ghassoul is mixed with water. A thin liquid porridge is created. This porridge is spread over the body to cleanse the body or hair. After a short exposure time, the clay is then rinsed off with warm water.
The clay paste also has the effect of a natural peeling. For relaxation or as a face mask, it is recommended to leave Ghassoul on the body for five minutes.
Ghassoul at Konuz (online shop) is a pure natural product. It is environmentally friendly and has an unlimited shelf life. Because it is available without fragrances and dyes, it is suitable for all skin types. Especially for sensitive skin or allergy sufferers. Ghassoul gently cleanses the hair. It is less prone to regreasing. Therefore, the hair has to be washed less often when using the Moroccan clay. Ghassoul is not irritating to the skin or eyes. It is safe to use for adults and children.
