Product
It's a soft, mineral-rich powder formed from ancient volcanic ash. Mixed with water, it becomes a smooth paste you apply like a mask. As it dries, it gently lifts surface oil and buildup — then rinses away clean. You'll feel a light tightening as it dries; that's the clay doing its work.
Our clay is sourced from a single, known deposit in the Mojave Desert of California. The region’s dry climate and deep natural reserves help protect the clay’s purity and mineral integrity.
“325 mesh” refers to how finely the clay is milled. A higher mesh number means a finer powder. Our 325-mesh clay feels smooth and refined — it mixes easily, applies evenly, and rinses cleanly without a gritty texture.
Mix 1 part clay with 2 parts water or apple cider vinegar. Stir using a non-metal utensil until smooth and creamy. Apply evenly to clean skin, let sit until slightly firm (not fully dry), then rinse with warm water. Follow with a light moisturizer. Start with once per week and adjust based on your skin’s comfort.
Yes. Combine clay with water until it forms a thin, spreadable mix. Apply to damp scalp or hair for 5–10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly before it fully dries. It can help clarify the scalp and remove buildup. Follow with conditioner or a nourishing treatment.
Yes. For underarms, make a thin paste and apply for a few minutes before rinsing. For foot soaks, dissolve 2–3 tablespoons in warm water, soak for 10–15 minutes, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
Always use glass, ceramic, wood, or food-grade plastic tools. Avoid metal bowls or utensils, as metal can react with the clay’s natural minerals.
Keep the clay dry, sealed, and away from moisture or strong odors. When stored properly, dry clay has a naturally long shelf life.
