Oiliness. Humidity. Sweat. Dead skin cells. Chlorine. Sun. Summer throws a whole lot at your skin. Give your skin what it craves, a clarifying reset with our Sulfur Clay Mask. Read on, and we’ll let you in on our secret power booster for the ultimate 10-minute clear skin tune-up.

Few things in skin care provide instant gratification like the right mask. Slather it on, wait about ten minutes, rinse, and voila. Skin feels and looks firmer, brighter, and smoother.

So what is the right mask? For acne-prone skin, it’s Vivant’s Sulfur Clay Mask. It draws out dirt, removes excess oil, peels away dead skin and impactions, and improves circulation for instantly improved texture and refinement.

Sulfur has been used for treating acne for ages. It’s a natural exfoliant and anti-microbial agent. It sloughs off dead skin cells, kills acne bacteria, and helps reduce skin oiliness. But despite its powerful properties, it’s more gentle than some other acne-fighting ingredients.

Just in case you’re wondering, the only thing you will smell is minerality and mud. We combine sulfur with bentonite clay and anti-inflammatory salicylic acid to draw out impurities, decongest skin, reduce inflammation, and help prevent acne scarring.

Bentonite is an absorbent clay that acts as a detoxifier. This mineral-rich substance is formed by the aging and weathering of volcanic ash and has polycationic properties, meaning it’s positively charged, which leads to absorption of negative charge toxins. In other words, it draws toxins from the skin like a magnet.

Salycilic acid is a beta-hydroxy acid that peels out dead skin cells and unblocks pores. oil soluble, which allows it to work beneath the surface. It comes form willow bark, the original source of aspirin, hence it’s potent anti-inflammory properties.

Now for the secret power boost we promised to share. Start with a layer of BP 10% Gel Medication and allow it to dry. Then, apply the mask on top. As the mask draws impurities and cellular debris out, you get a major acne-fighting boost from the benzoyl peroxide. The definitive detox meets maximum acne control.  

Try this power duo once or twice a week to keep your skin looking clear, refined, and shine-free all summer long.
