Calcium Bentonite Clay Goat Milk Soap

This is a photo of the soap drying and it is two days old.  Soap is like wine the older it is the better it is.  Soap has to cure for 30 days before using.  During the 30 days it dries and hardens.  You can see the clay in the soap and when I first poured it was not visible at all.   
This recipe has of course calcium bentonite living clay, olive oil, castor oil, grapeseed oil, coconut oil, a swirl of raw honey, lye and clary sage essential oil.

You are probably wondering why calcium bentonite living clay.  Well here you go.

While applications of Calcium Bentonite Clay may not cure cases of Psoriasis and Eczema, it will help in a significant way. The effective action begins through the electromagnetic process of adsorbing the inflammation in the lesions, along with the deformed cells and dead scales. Pain and itching stop almost instantly following the application of the clay. The clay then assists the body in building new tissue. Smother the affected area with a thick layer of hydrated clay, and then prevent the clay from drying for several hours by wrapping the area with plastic food wrap. Glad Press and Seal works great for this purpose. After several hours, repeat the process with fresh clay and plastic wrap. During the day if the clay wrap is inconvenient just apply the hydrated clay topically in a thin application and let it dry. Re-apply whenever you experience itching.

It is also used to combat acne

The best clay for this is a pure Calcium Bentonite Clay.  Its amazing drawing power will help to open and clean out the pores.  It removes excess sebum and is an excellent exfoliant.  Calcium Bentonite Clay has natural antibacterial properties as well, and will dramatically speed the healing of the pimples.  Many times, when people begin using clay masks to combat acne, they notice that their acne appears to worsen before it improves.  Don't panic if this happens to you!  This is a good thing!  It means that the clay is doing its job, and is pulling the toxins from your skin.  Also, your face may show some redness when you remove the clay.  This is very normal.  The Calcium Bentonite Clay increases the blood circulation to the skin, which aids in the healing process. 
They are talking about a clay mask but with a clay soap you will get the same results but not as fast as you would with a mask so therefore you will not have as many break outs as you would with a pure clay mask.
