Kaolin description

Kaolin (white clay) is a wonderful, gentle mineral clay that is perfect for balancing and refreshing. In shampoos for oily hair, kaolin is a true star. It effectively absorbs excess sebum and oil from the scalp without drying out the skin or irritating the hair follicles, helping the hair stay clean and fluffy for longer while giving it natural lift from the roots. In skincare, kaolin is widely used in face masks and cleansers because it stimulates circulation, gently exfoliates, and deeply cleanses the pores, making it ideal even for the most sensitive skin.
