Formulation view This clay mask uses bentonite and kaolin as the adsorption core, stabilized by emulsifiers. Botanical extracts and tocopherol provide antioxidant benefits. Preservation uses phenoxyethanol and disodium EDTA. Factory observation notes that mineral purity and particle size distribution balance cleansing power with comfort, requiring heavy metal compliance, suitable for oily or combination skin for periodic deep cleansing.

Ingredients explained
- Water/Aqua/Eau
- Primary aqueous solvent and carrier; no specific incompatibilities, focus on microbial stability.
- Bentonite
- Natural clay for oil absorption in masks or thickening; no allergenicity, ensure high purity batches
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Glyceryl Stearate
- Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Kaolin
- Kaolin absorbent and bulk for powders/masks; check for heavy metals and comply with EU colorant limits IV/119
- Decyl Glucoside
- Mild alkyl glucoside, biodegradable; foam stabilizer, thickens with fatty alcohols, low allergenicity.
- Pumice
- Inorganic abrasive for physical exfoliation; particle size critical to avoid damage.
- Titanium Dioxide
- Physical UV filter and colorant up to 25%; nano form requires attention
- Vaccinium Myrtillus Fruit Extract
- Bilberry extract; anthocyanin rich; gentle antioxid/conditioning, no pub comed data
- Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil
- Sunflower seed oil for emollient/occlusive; high linoleic acid, low comedogenicity.
- Hamamelis Virginiana Water
- Hamamelis water; tannins/flavonoids for astringent and soothing; low conc, generally well-tolerated
- Citrus Limon Fruit Extract
- Lemon fruit extract for fragrance and occlusive moisturizing; contains furanocoumarins, photosensitivity caution advised.
- Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Fruit Extract
- Citrus peel extract, provides fragrance and astringency; photosensitive due to furanocoumarins; caution in daytime or remove photoactives.
- Acer Saccharum Extract
- Maple extract; NMF/AA source; gentle humectant, no public irritant/comedogenic data
- Punica Granatum Extract
- Pomegranate extract containing polyphenols; offers antioxidant and skin-protecting properties, often used in brightening formulas.
- Arnica Montana Flower Extract
- Arnica extract; plant soothing/perfume alternative; low conc, potential sensitizer, patch test advised
- Crocus Chrysanthus Bulb Extract
- Saffron bulb extract for skin conditioning; low concentration for antioxidant/soothing concept, monitor botanical batch variability.
- Acacia Senegal Gum
- Natural film-former and fragrance agent; used for viscosity or film, check purity for allergens
- Saccharum Officinarum Extract
- Sugarcane extract, mainly moisturizing and conditioning; use at low levels; prone to microbes, needs preservatives.
- Menthyl Lactate
- Menthyl lactate, cooling and fragrance agent, provides mild menthol sensation for refreshing
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Retinyl Palmitate
- Vitamin A ester for skin conditioning; light-sensitive, requires protection, avoid in pregnancy.
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
- Sd Alcohol 39-C
- Isopropanol-containing denatured alcohol; fast-evaporating, sensitizing risk, limit usage in sensitive skin
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
