Here I am still having spotted hives 3 days past the last dosage of antibiotics, defeated still, but this time a little hopeful. I know I will get through this time and have my beautiful High School skin back one day, if I don't give up hope. This is the 1 product that gives me hope. I'm not a licensed Dr. or expert so please try my suggestions with caution. For me I don't have anything to lose since my breakouts are pretty crazy. Of all the things I'd strongly recommend it's this clay, I've been using it since May. This product review has been long overdue. Holistic health is the only way. I have to remember that every time I wanna succumb to pills and expensive creams. I'm not saying pills and creams don't work it's just at what cost? Pills/creams today, kidney failure tomorrow. That is the future.This bentonite clay mask is mixed with Raw Organic Apple Cider Vinegar and washed off after it dries (15-20 mins). It's the absolute best mask I've ever done, hands down. My breakouts are still there, and probably will continue to be as they're hormonal breakouts and possibly diet-related as all inflammation in the body tends to be but for now, this is my savior. Sure I could just go on birth control to solve the problem until I've created five other problems I'm not in the mood to deal with but I just rather not. I'm just gonna stick to this clay because it's the only thing that truly helps.
I get almost everything from Amazon. Their description says: "Aztec secret Indian healing clay clays have been used for centuries to beautify and refresh when used as a facial mask. Cleopatra used clay from the Nile River and the Arabian Desert over 1800 years ago, as part of her beauty ritual. German and roman spas have been using clay packs and treatments in the spas they built 4,000 years ago. Many of these spas still exist and use clay even today. Pliney the elder devoted an entire chapter of his natural history" to the many uses of clay for pimples, black heads and skin tightening. Many famous naturopaths, such as kuhn, just and kneipp have contributed to the revival of the uses of clay through their natural treatments for arthritus and skin ailments. Aztec Indian healing clay a brief history - the world’s most powerful facial the use of clay with apple cider vinegar can be dated back to the southern French priest of the16th century, kneipp, and his natural treatments using clay packs and poultices.
