kaolin
binomial name: kaolin
kaolin is a fine, soft white clay formed through the natural weathering of feldspar-rich rock. prized for its gentle character, it has been used for centuries in skin rituals for its purifying yet mild touch. silky and lightweight, kaolin blends smoothly with water and botanical extracts to create creamy masks and cleansers. its delicate mineral composition makes it suitable for even sensitive skin, offering clarity without harshness.
benefit: kaolin is known for its ability to gently absorb excess oil and impurities while maintaining skin comfort. it helps refine the appearance of pores and supports a balanced, refreshed complexion. unlike more absorbent clays, it cleanses without over-drying, leaving skin soft, smooth and calm.
