KAOLIN CLAY(WHITE)

Kaolin clay, also known as white clay or China clay, is a naturally occurring, soft, fine-textured clay that is rich in the mineral kaolinite. It is one of the gentlest clays used in skincare and is prized for its mild cleansing, oil-absorbing, and skin-soothing properties. Mined from mineral deposits around the world, kaolin clay has been used for centuries in traditional beauty treatments and is especially popular in formulations for sensitive, dry, or irritated skin.

White kaolin clay is distinct from other cosmetic clays like bentonite or green clay due to its neutral pH, low absorption strength, and non-drying effect, making it suitable for regular use. It works by drawing out excess oil, impurities, and toxins from the skin without stripping away natural moisture, helping to purify and refine the skin while maintaining its natural balance. Its fine, soft texture also provides gentle exfoliation, leaving the skin smooth and refreshed. Because of its versatility and safety profile, kaolin clay is a common ingredient in facial masks, cleansers, exfoliants, soaps, and even baby powders.

Provides Mild Exfoliation
The fine texture of white kaolin clay offers very gentle physical exfoliation that helps remove dead skin cells, refine the skin’s surface, and promote a brighter, more radiant complexion—all without harsh abrasives or irritation.

Controls Excess Oil Without Stripping Moisture
Kaolin clay absorbs sebum and mattifies oily areas of the skin, helping to reduce shine and minimize the appearance of pores. Unlike stronger clays, it does so while preserving the skin’s natural hydration barrier, making it suitable for daily or frequent use—even on dry or combination skin types.
