The Event
The event was held at the beautiful Mandarin Oriental Hotel located in Columbus Circle. When I walked in there was a center table set-up (pictured above) and when I sat down they began to play an informational video for me that pretty much explained the background of the company and how it came to be. (See below for detailed information on the brand and the products. ) After the video finished I was escorted back to the suites wash room where there were two licensed estheticians (Trudi Jaye www.trudijaye.com & Klara Chrxusxox www.klarabeautylab.com) set-up to perform facials with the Clayspray masks. Ironically my love Gregorie of HueKnewIt.com was just finishing up in the second chair as I sat down to begin my facial (hey-girl).
Trudi began by cleansing my face by first spraying it with the Clayspray H20 Spray with Green Tea. She asked me some questions to help determine which Clayspray mask would be most beneficial to me. After telling her that my skin was just recovering from a BB Cream reaction and that my skin is sensitive she suggested that I try the White Clay and Aloe Vera mask because the aloe vera would soothe some of the irritation from my post BB Cream mishap. After my face was cleansed she applied the mask and let it dry for about 10-15 minutes. You’ll be able to tell when it’s dry because the mask will completely change colors (to a light grey/white color). After the mask dried Trudi placed a hot towel on my face to help loosen up the mask. She then used the towel to wipe the entire mask off and finished off with a moisturizer AND even a lip gloss (lol).
Now directly after the facial my skin was super irritated and had a lot of red spots, which I know is something that a lot of people experience post-facial. However, during my hour and a half commute back home from the event the irritation had eased slightly and I was left with this...
In
addition to the amazingness that was my glowing skin, I also left with this
lovely parting gift to try more of the Clayspray
line at home:
I'm writing this post a week later and my skin still feels extremely hydrated, smooth and is still glowing.
Now lets jump into the company and the products...

Formula:
The Clayspray range not only removes impurities and environmental toxins but also puts back in by nourishing skin with minerals to help prevent ageing. These minerals include silica to boost collagen, calcium to promote healthy cell regeneration, potassium to help lock in moisture and iron & magnesium to activate circulation and encourage healing for an overall anti-ageing effect.
Innovation:
When the clay is mixed with water it undergoes a maturation process
where structural changes occur as a consequence of the clay-water
interaction. The clay-water interaction
ensures that the clay is at optimum levels of efficacy, with its properties
enhanced for the maximum benefit of skin.
As a result of the maturation process, Clayspray enhances the clay’s own
action and beneficial properties.
Packaging:
The clay has been carefully packed into the portable patented
cylinder that has a unique dual chamber within an air-tight compartment. The clay remains isolated from the air
propellant upon delivery to keep the clay fresh and pure. Finally a special
dispensing mechanism has been designed to ensure the clay does not dry or clog
the pump to easily dispense your clay mask. These design features and formula
ensure that the clay remains hygienic, always fresh, and easy to use from the
first to the last facial.
Final Thoughts
After leaving the Clayspray event and waking up the next morning brighter, hydrated and a more even skin-tone I am officially a Clayspray fan. It is not a huge commitment, simply 10-15 minutes once or twice a week will get you leaps closer to the skin you want. I would definitely recommend adding a Clayspray mask to your weekly beauty regimen.
Suggested Retail price for 125
ml bottle is $59.95. Clayspray is available
