Questions and answers

Should you use bentonite clay in the morning or at night?

You can use bentonite clay at any time of day, as there is no restriction on when to apply it. A bentonite-based facial mask combined with Alcea sulphurea extract may help reduce acne severity when used as part of your routine.

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2025

Can you use bentonite clay every day?

Bentonite clay is typically used as a facial mask or treatment rather than every day, as frequent use may dry out the skin. It helps absorb excess oil and impurities, and specific formulations can improve conditions like acne when used as directed.
