What is Kaolin… The white clay that purifies the skin.
Antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and exfoliating, these are some of the excellent properties that this mineral provides for the skin. In this article we invite you to all its benefits.
Kaolin is a natural clay mineral that contains significant amounts of:
Calcium : helps improve tissue cohesion.
Zinc : it is an important part of cell growth and is a fundamental mineral for protein synthesis, mainly collagen.
Magnesium : contributes to the restoration of the skin barrier and the reconstruction of tissues.
Silicon : strengthens tissues and provides greater elasticity to the skin.
Within cosmetics, kaolin, also known as white clay, is used as a mask. Since, like most of these minerals, it is an excellent treatment to exfoliate the skin and eliminate dead cells, and it also absorbs excess seborrhea. For its part, kaolin differs from other clays because it can be applied to all types of skin, even the most sensitive, thanks to the fact that its exfoliating action on the skin is gentle and does not irritate, as long as it is natural without added chemicals or preservatives.
