Kaolin Clay

Kaolin clay, also known as China clay or white clay, is a naturally occurring mineral that has been used for centuries for various purposes. It is named after the Kaoling hill in China, where it was first discovered. This fine, soft powder is composed mainly of the mineral kaolinite and is known for its versatile applications.

One of the most common uses of kaolin clay is in the cosmetic and skincare industry. It is prized for its gentle exfoliating and cleansing properties. Kaolin clay is often used in facial masks, cleansers, and scrubs to help remove impurities, excess oil, and dead skin cells from the skin's surface. Its gentle nature makes it suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin, as it does not strip the skin of its natural oils
