Mud on our body!?! Yup!

Blog #11

Who loves having mud on our body? Well, we do! When it comes to improving our skin tone, mud has its magic! We had this extraordinary experience at O.liv Body Bar in Nashville, TN, where we got to slather organic mud over our body with three different types of mud from three different countries. We then chilled in a fog of lavender steam in a steam room. The place also served us wine to enjoy during our stay in the private steam room for an hour, and then we rinsed off with clean water and enjoyed drinking a cup of tea afterward. Talk about an absolutely relaxing experience, right?

About their mud:

They developed a variety of mud formulas from Red Rhassoul Clay, Green Italian Clay, and French Pink Clay:

RED Carpet Moroccan Rhassoul Clay
A truly exquisite spa quality clay from ancient deposits unearthed from the fertile Atlas Mountains in Morocco.
This clay is quarry mined from deep beneath the Atlas Mountains in Eastern Morocco. It is sun-dried and untreated.
As Rhassoul is considered to contain higher percentages of silica and magnesium than other clays, it is thought to be far more effective. Also, due to its greater ability to swell with the addition of water, Rhassoul achieves better results in skin treatment.
They used Moroccan red clay for sensitive skin with traces of (all Organic) Rosemary, Peppermint, Clary Sage, Tarragon, Tea Tree and  Eucalyptus.

Going GREEN Italian Clay
Their Italian Green clay has enormous absorbent powers due to the constitution of its micro molecules. It literally “drinks” oils, toxic substances, and impurities from your skin. Its toning action stimulates the skin by bringing fresh blood to skin cells. Italian Green clay is great for helping to clear occasional skin blemishes.
Italian Green Clay is sometimes called Sea Clay and is by far one of the most majestic, most effective, and most commonly used mineral skin clays found in the world. It contains a cornucopia of valuable elements. Green clay owes its coloration to two very important factors: iron oxide and decomposed plant matter.
Our green clay has traces of (all Organic) Lemongrass, Sweet Orange and  Citronella.

Tickled PINK French Clay
French Pink Clay is a combination of red and white clays. It is considered to be the mildest of all the clays and works well for normal, sensitive and mature skin types. Its unique composition includes Kaolinite, Iron, Illite, Montmorillonite and Calcite. 
French Pink Clay can be used to cleanse and detoxify the skin, remove dead skin cells and create and overall refreshed appearance. It can also be used to treat acne and other skin ailments; poor blood and/or lymph circulation and sun damaged skin.
Developed as an all-over body mud with traces of (all Organic) Sweet Orange, Lavender, Rosemary and Chamomile.

This whole process was an astonishing experience where we absolutely relaxed well and left the place with a super clean skin, and of course, a happy and refreshed soul!
