Hello, I'm 57, but trying to look 40 forever! I've been using a dead sea mud mask and peel for the last 14 weeks and can report that it works for me. It wasn't magic but it actually reduced my lines more than I thought it would.
That's about it. I've tried a lot of things and the trick is giving it enough time to start working. When I kept switching every month nothing seemed to work. Has anyone else tried this?
Thanks,
mrsMiss |

It's called miracle face kit. I got it through the site deadseamudmask dot net or something similar. It comes with the mask and a peel.
Not sure what the difference is between mud and clay, lol. Maybe the amount of minerals? |

What Is The Difference Between Mud and Clay?
Although clay and mud both come from the same earthy ground, mud is promoted more as a healing agent, whereas clay is more commonly used in cosmetic products, as it is a drying agent. It is a component found in many cosmetic foundations and powders. Clay also tends to be used as a clarifying agent in skin products because of its ability to remove matter suspended in liquid. Because clay's natural properties are oil balancing, it is especially useful and beneficial for acne prone clientele.
Mud is an ingredient that is used not so much for cosmetic purposes, but for healing purposes. Because of its water solubility, mud is a substance which allows the skin to absorb nutrients from it or other products applied along with it. This is a common function of mud in masks, body wraps, and other skin treatments. In America, mud has not been allowed to be labeled "medicinal" by the FDA. However, in many European, African and Asian countries, mud is considered by healthcare experts to offer specific medicinal properties.

| Thank you darkmoon, I never knew all that! I suppose that's why the mud seems to be "healing" my wrinkles without drying my face out. |

I'm not sure I would want to put dirt I find out in my yard on my face, especially since I have a dog and it's probably not the freshest dirt around... |

Sorry, I couldn't help myself - this so much reminded me on a joke -
A guy goes to a doctor who gives him bad news that he's got critical and deadly disease. Guy asks if there is anything the doctor can recommend. Doctor recommends taking mud/dirt baths. Guy asks
- will this really help?
- no, but you'll get used to mud/dirt (earth) |

| Oh my gosh, I have been begging to find the time to get a Repechange mask. I have seen the wonders it has done on horribly acneic skin and rants and raves about their #1 mask used professionally called something like the 4-layer mask (based on a sea mud mask) to perk up and restore the vitality of skin. Her whole line is very medicinal and intriguing. I must go get this facial. |

Oh, please don't. You risk getting parasites. There are probably more types of parasites in soil than you can imagine. Anyway, dead sea mud is different than normal mud right? I wanna go and float in the Dead Sea one day! |

Me too! I heard there's so much salt you can literally float without any effort. That sounds so relaxing. |

Yes, dead sea mud is first of all very rich in nutrients, and secondly the dead sea mud you would get from Ahava for example is filtered from foreign particles and is very cool and smooth.
I believe it's very calming for acne, but it's just a great mask |

| I tried it but it didn't work for me. It also smelled gross...well, like mud. So for me, it was a deal breaker. |

| Here's mud in you eye (lol) I have been using this for a very long time. I am a nurse who works long hours often in unpleasant harsh situations. Woman, and I should also say men, in our profession search and search for anything that will alleviate dry cracked skin. My search lead me to Ahava body and face products. Pricey, yes but for me this works like a charm. Really the results are exceptional. Currently I am using the body milk as well as the face moisturizer. Contains a large amount of mud from the Dead Sea and is manufactured in Israel. I tried to post the URL but this site would not let me since I am a new member. AHAVA Dermud Intense Soothing Nourishing Cream For Dry and Sensitive Skin. Hope this helps! |
