Volcanic Sea Clay Detox Masque

Description

The ultimate reset for a smooth, clear canvas when your skin’s craving a refresh. Comprised of four natural cleansing clays- Mediterranean Sea clay, two purifying kaolin clays, and bentonite- this masque was created to gently clarify, exfoliate, and unclog pores without leaving your skin feeling dry.

A spritz of infrared-infused volcanic ash from the Jeju Island in South Korea is packed with active enzyme to ward off blemishes and absorb excess oil while MARA’s signature algae blend delivers nutrients to refresh and revitalize the skin’s appearance. Adaptogen ashwaganda is paired with green tea and honey to help soothe stressed out skin while promoting overall clarity.

HOW TO USE IT

Apply a thin layer to clean skin. Leave on for 10-15 minutes, rinse off to glow. Follow with your favorite oil or serum and moisturizer.

ABOUT THIS BRAND

MARA is known for its proprietary algae blend—wild-collected from the coasts of Ireland and France—and its focus on combining marine superfoods with modern skincare innovation to create a streamlined, sensorial ritual.

With a distinct point of view that merges ocean-sourced ingredients with a refined, minimalist aesthetic, MARA offers a curated range of skincare essentials designed for everyday use.
