Q: How do I use this as both a cleanser and a mask?
A: As a cleanser, mix a small amount with water into a paste, massage gently, then rinse. As a mask, apply a thicker layer, leave 10-15 minutes until it dries, then rinse with warm water.

Q: Is this suitable for sensitive skin as well as oily skin?
A: It's made for oily skin with gentle Ayurvedic herbs, but if your skin is sensitive, patch test first because of the clay and turmeric.

Q: How often should I use it?
A: The maker suggests daily as a cleanser or 2-3 times a week as a mask, adjusting to your skin.

Q: Will the turmeric stain my skin or towels?
A: Turmeric is balanced within the clay to limit this, but use a dedicated face towel and rinse well to avoid a temporary tint.

Q: What makes French green clay different from other clays?
A: It's a mineral-rich clay traditionally used in masks for oily and congested skin.

Q: Can I use this if I have acne-prone skin?
A: Many people with oily, congested skin like using clay masks, but this isn't intended to treat medical skin conditions; see a dermatologist for acne concerns.

Q: How long will one container last?
A: Most people find a container lasts 2-3 months with regular use as both a cleanser and a weekly mask.
