Sodium Bentonite clay has amazing healing benefits.

This clay has electromagnetic properties which make it very absorbent and helpful for drawing out metals and toxins. Because of this Bentonite clay is most effective if it doesn't come in contact with metal before use. Mix it with wood in a plastic or glass bowl for best results.
Here are a few of my favorite recipes:

Basic Clay Mask Recipe - Feel rejuvenated and increase circulation in your face

1-3 tsps clay
1-3 tsp apple cider vinegar or water
Non-metallic bowl and spoon for mixing.

Mix until chunky consistency. Apply to the face with fingers. Relax and leave the mask on for about 20 - 30 minutes. You will start to feel a tingly sensation on your skin, the clay is at work absorbing the trace minerals. Around 15 minutes the clay will start to dry. Rinse the mask before it starts to flake into a hard shell.

Clay Mask Hair Detox

1 cup brewed herbal tea or water
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
3/4 cup clay
10 drops of your choice of essential oil

Let the tea cool and strain it out. Pour the tea and apple cider vinegar into your bowl. Add the clay and mix until it is the consistency of yogurt. Add in your oils. You can store it in an air tight container for up to a week. To Use: wet hair and massage a handful of the mixture into the hair starting at the roots and working you way down until the hair is coated. Leave on for 5 - 20 minutes but do not let it dry. Rinse with warm water.

Clay Toothpaste

1/4 cup clay
3/8 cup boiling water
1/4 tsp real salt
15 - 25 drops Stevia
10-12 drops peppermint essential oil
4 - 6 drops tea tree oil

Mix everything together and taste a bit with you fingertip. Add more oil or stevia depending on your taste. Storing in a small glass mason jar works well, because you can dip the tip of your brush right in.
