Ulo clay: Top 10 benefits and uses

2. Treating oily skin and acne

Ulo clay’s adsorbent power may be helpful in treating acne breakouts and oily skin. The clay can help remove sebum, or oil, from the skin’s surface, and it may also have a calming effect on inflamed breakouts.

Using a clay face mask can help remove impurities from the skin to treat acne or reduce the risk of pimples and skin infections.

How to use

Many commercial facial masks contain clays because of their clarifying effect on the skin. Some skin care masks contain ulo, but a person can also make their own ulo mask at home.

Mix ulo clay powder with water to make a thick paste. Apply to the areas of skin that are prone to oil or acne. Leave the mask on for 20 minutes and rinse thoroughly. Repeat two or three times per week.

Otherwise, people can choose from a range of premade ulo clay face masks online.
