Summary
White Kaolin Clay is the mildest of all clays and is suitable to add to products created for
people with sensitive skin. It helps stimulate circulation to the skin
while gently exfoliating and cleansing it. It does not draw oils from
the skin, so it can also be used on dry skin types without negative
results.
Kaolin Clay is high in
calcium, silica, zinc and magnesium, which are beneficial for oily,
blemished skin. The clay's mildly drying and disinfectant properties
help heal existing blemishes and inflammations, while preventing new
ones from forming.
Traditionally, clays
are used to reduce swelling and inflammation, and to draw impurities
from the skin. Cosmetic clays are made up of different mineral
contents, and each clay type has a different effect on the skin. The
high mineral content of White Kaolin Clay rejuvenates the skin while
the clay exfoliates and stimulates blood circulation to the skin.
Regular use of clay facials will remove dead skin cells, improve
circulation to the skin, remove debris from the pores and bring about a
smooth healthy glow.
Facial Masks: Use purified water to
moisten your clay, you will only need a small amount. Add water to clay
until it is a nice paste consistency and then add skin safe
aromatherapy essential oils or infused water in place of purified
water. This type of facial mask should only be used once a week on
normal skin and up to 2x a week on oily skin complexions.
