Description

Bentonite Clay
Scientific Concept: Natural swelling clay (primarily montmorillonite)

Smooth, mineral-rich, and highly absorbent, bentonite clay is a naturally occurring clay formed from volcanic ash. Known for its unique ability to swell and bind with water, it has been used traditionally in external body care, cleansing applications, and mineral-based preparations.

Product Description:
Bentonite clay is composed mainly of montmorillonite, a group of minerals formed through the weathering of volcanic ash over time. When mixed with water, it becomes a thick, paste-like substance due to its strong absorptive and swelling properties. It is typically sourced as a fine gray-green or off-white powder.

Traditional & Modern Uses:
Bentonite clay has been used in traditional cultures for external cleansing and topical applications. In modern use, it is commonly found in skincare masks, body wraps, and bath preparations. It is also used industrially for filtration and binding applications.

Benefits / Functional Uses:

Highly absorbent clay used in topical skincare
Supports removal of surface oils and impurities on skin
Traditionally used in poultices and body wraps
May support soothing of minor skin irritations (external use)
Used in detox-style bath and facial applications
Naturally rich in trace minerals depending on source
Swells and binds when hydrated, forming a paste

Preparation & Use Suggestions:
Mix with water, apple cider vinegar, or herbal infusions to form a smooth paste for facial masks or body applications. Leave on skin for 10–20 minutes before rinsing. Can also be used in bath soaks or compresses.

Cautions:
For external use only unless specifically labeled food-grade and approved by a qualified professional. May be drying to skin. Avoid inhalation of fine powder. Do not store in metal containers or mix with metal utensils, as it may reduce effectiveness.
