Clarifying Clay Mask
The most minimalist mask in German skincare — exactly four ingredients. Loess (a mineral-rich glacial clay), nasturtium extract, witch hazel extract, and corn starch. That's it. No fragrance, no alcohol, no preservatives, no water. The powder format means you mix a fresh paste before each use, which eliminates the need for preservatives entirely. Loess is a unique clay — deposited by glacial wind over thousands of years, it's mineral-rich (iron, calcium, silica) and has finer particle size than standard kaolin, meaning deeper pore penetration. Nasturtium contains benzyl isothiocyanate, a natural antimicrobial. Mix with warm water or chamomile tea, apply for 10 minutes, rinse. Dr. Hauschka's biodynamic approach reduced to its absolute essence.
