Kaolin

What it does: Absorbent, Cosmetic Colorant, Abrasive

Community Rating: Liked

Kaolin is a clay. It is used for oil control and to help minimize pores. Like other clays, kaolin has the ability to absorb excess sebum or oil. This can help clean out pores and mattify the skin.

Some types of kaolin may have exfoliating properties. When water is added to kaolin, it becomes a paste with small abrasive particles.

Most kaolin is a white color, but may be pink/orange/red depending on where it comes from.

The name 'kaolin' comes from a Chinese village named 'Gaoling'. Kaolin clay comes from rocks rich in kaolinite. Kaolinite, the mineral, has a silicate layered structure. Kaolinite is formed from chemical weathering of aluminum siilicate minerals.

Besides skincare, kaolin is commonly used to make glossy paper, in ceramics, toothpaste, and as medicine to soothe stomach issues.

Directions

In a small bowl, put a teaspoon of Clay and dribble water or one of our HydroSouls. Mix until a creamy consistency is reached. Apply all over skin with small mask fan brush or fingertips. Allow to dry. Drying times and thickness may vary and average between 10 & 15 minutes. Rinse thoroughly. Use as a purifying cleanser, a mask, or as a spot treatment targeting blemishes. A mask is invigorating and may stimulate redness in the area applied. However, it is not harmful. After removing Clay, mist HydroSoul. Follow with Oil Serum and/or Day Moisturizer and the skin will become cool, calm and clear.
