Cardon - Purifying Clay Cleanser

Hero Ingredients: A powerful combination for deep cleaning and hydration.

Tri-Clay Blend (Kaolin, Bentonite, Moroccan Lava Clay): This is the detoxifying engine. Kaolin clay gently cleanses, Bentonite clay is a powerhouse for absorbing oil and impurities from deep within pores, and Moroccan Lava Clay (Rhassoul) is rich in minerals that help to nourish the skin.

Cactus Extract: A key ingredient in Cardon's line, this extract is rich in antioxidants and has exceptional soothing and hydrating properties. It helps to ensure that while the clays are purifying, your skin's moisture barrier remains calm and supported.

La-ggopurum™ Complex: A proprietary blend of botanical extracts that helps to soothe the skin and provides additional antioxidant protection against environmental stressors.

This cleanser is ideal for Oily, Combination, and Acne-Prone skin types. It's an excellent choice for anyone who struggles with excess shine, clogged pores, or blackheads.

Deeply Cleanses and Detoxifies: The tri-clay blend effectively draws out dirt, oil, and impurities from the pores.

Absorbs Excess Oil and Reduces Shine: Helps to mattify the skin for a more balanced, shine-free appearance throughout the day.

Hydrates and Soothes: Cactus Extract ensures the skin is left feeling comfortable and hydrated, not stripped or dry.

Gentle Enough for Daily Use: Provides the benefits of a clay mask in a gentle, non-drying daily cleanser format.

Use up to twice daily, in the morning and evening.

Step 1: Wet your face with lukewarm water.

Step 2: Squeeze a dime-sized amount of the cleanser into your palm and work it into a creamy lather.

Step 3: Gently massage the lather onto your face using circular motions for about 60 seconds, focusing on the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin).

Step 4: Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and gently pat your skin dry with a clean towel.

The 2nd's Recommendation: For external use only. A patch test is always a good idea when trying a new product.

This is a fantastic cleanser for guys who get shiny or feel congested by the end of the day. The clay blend does an amazing job of making your skin feel genuinely clean and refreshed. For an extra deep clean, you can leave it on your skin for an extra minute or two before rinsing, like a mini-mask, to let the clays absorb even more oil.

A fresh and subtle scent with notes of eucalyptus, cedarwood, and bergamot. It's clean, invigorating, and rinses away without lingering.

Will a clay cleanser dry out my skin?
While some clay masks can be drying, this product is formulated as a daily cleanser. It includes hydrating and soothing ingredients like Cactus Extract and Glycerin specifically to counteract the absorbent properties of the clay, so it cleanses deeply without stripping your skin's moisture.

How is this different from a regular gel or foaming face wash?
A regular cleanser primarily uses surfactants to wash away surface-level dirt and oil. A clay cleanser goes a step further. The clay particles have a natural ability to bind to and pull impurities and excess oil from within the pores, providing a much deeper, more detoxifying clean.

Can I use this as a full face mask?
It's designed to be a "flash mask" or a cleanser. You can definitely leave it on for a few minutes before rinsing for a more intensive treatment. However, for a full, 10-15 minute mask experience, it's best to use a product specifically formulated for that purpose, as this cleanser isn't designed to dry down completely like a traditional clay mask.
