Does your natural face cream have kaolin?

If you’re skincare-conscious, chances are you stick to a natural face cream to keep your skin soft, supple, and healthy-looking. Let’s find out about Kaolin, a special ingredient in facial masks that is ideal due to its tremendous benefits for skin care.

A good natural face cream can go a long way in achieving and maintaining healthy and beautiful skin. Not only is it important to have a good face cream, but it is also ideal to put on a mask to give your skin the rejuvenation it needs from time to time. These face masks allow your skin to recharge, rebuild, heal and nourish itself in the best possible way. Today, let’s talk about one of the most important skincare ingredients men know about: kaolin. Kaolin is an ideal component in a face mask for several reasons, reasons that will be described later.

What is kaolin?

Kaolin is a mineral extract that is produced from a special type of clay. Kaolin is obtained from clay found in New Zealand, along the foothills of the Southern Alps. Kaolin has been used in native populations due to the many health benefits it provides. It has unique properties and is rich in nutrients and minerals, making it ideal not only for ceramics, but also for gastrointestinal health and skin care.

Kaolin is known to be the safest, most effective and most suitable clay material for cleansing masks:

1. Kaolin removes grease and dirt

Kaolin has the natural ability to absorb oil and remove unwanted dirt from the skin.

2. Kaolin has mild disinfectant properties

This special ingredient is known to help heal blemishes, acne, and irritated skin due to its disinfectant properties. It can also relieve inflammation while increasing circulation so you can have the radiant, glowing skin you want.

3. Kaolin is rich in minerals

Kaolin is also rich in naturally occurring minerals, and applying it to your face can give your skin the nourishment it needs.

Not too much kaolin please

Although this clay has excellent cleansing and skin care properties, it has been found to have mild drying properties. Although this may be ideal for those with oily skin, Kaolin is not intended to be used regularly. Unlike natural face cream formulations that can be used daily, Kaolin face masks should only be used two to three times a month. This means that in your skincare routine, opt for a daily cleanse, but a deep clean only once every two weeks. Excessive cleaning (especially deep cleaning) can lead to excessive dryness, which in turn leads to wrinkles and aggravates skin problems.

Kaolin clay is a very important ingredient in face masks. Ideally, it complements the cleansing effect of natural face cream and works in areas that regular creams can’t. For best results, Kaolin is usually added with other ingredients such as bentone gel, which is known to work synergistically with Kaolin to enhance and enrich its cleansing effect.
