ClearLee Kaolin Clay is a finely milled, 100% pure white cosmetic-grade clay powder designed for gentle skin and hair detox, DIY beauty formulations, and natural soap making.

Harvested from clean deposits and processed for ultra-fine consistency, this cosmetic-grade kaolin is free from additives and preservatives. Its mild, absorbent properties make it suitable for sensitive, dry, mature, and combination skin types, while its smooth texture blends easily into masks, cleansers, shampoos, deodorants, and soap. Packaged in a resealable standup mylar bag, the 5 lb size supplies hobbyists, small-batch formulators, and home spa lovers with a reliable base ingredient for a range of beauty and wellness applications.

How does ClearLee Kaolin Clay help in a skincare routine?

Kaolin gently lifts impurities and excess oils without overly drying the skin, making it a great first-step detox or weekly clarifying treatment. It’s often used as a base in masks because it mixes smoothly with liquids and active botanicals.

• Absorbs surface oil while preserving natural moisture balance.
• Soft texture that reduces abrasion when used in face masks and scrubs.
• Blends well with hydrosols, aloe, honey, and essential oils for customized treatments.

Can I use this kaolin clay for hair and scalp care?

Yes—ClearLee kaolin is versatile for hair and scalp recipes. It can help clarify buildup and excess oil from the scalp without stripping hair of its natural oils, and it can be incorporated into dry shampoos and clarifying rinses.

• Mix with water or apple cider vinegar for a gentle scalp mask to remove product residue.
• Create a dry shampoo by combining kaolin with arrowroot or cornstarch to absorb oil between washes.
• Use in bar shampoo formulations for smooth texture and improved lather suspension of other ingredients.

What makes this kaolin suitable for DIY soap and cosmetic projects?

Its ultra-fine particle size and neutral white color make ClearLee kaolin a stable, easy-to-handle filler and texture enhancer in cold process soap, melt-and-pour, and solid cosmetics. It disperses evenly so your final product has a consistent color and feel.

• Stable in both anhydrous and aqueous formulas—no clumping when mixed properly.
• Provides mild slip and silky feel to soap bars, creams, and foundations.
• Neutral pH and mineral content that won’t interfere with fragrance or colorants.

How should I store and measure the clay for best results?

Keep the resealable mylar bag tightly closed in a cool, dry place to preserve flow and prevent moisture clumping. Measure with clean, dry utensils and sift for ultra-smooth preparations.

• Store away from humidity to avoid lumps; break up clumps with a spoon or sieve if needed.
• Use a gram scale for repeatable DIY recipes; a tablespoon approximates 8–10 grams depending on packing.
• Sift into liquid slowly to prevent lumps and mix with a silicone spatula for uniform texture.

Who is this for? ClearLee Kaolin Clay is aimed at natural beauty enthusiasts, DIY formulators, soapmakers, and anyone with sensitive or combination skin seeking a gentle, multipurpose mineral ingredient. The bulk 5 lb size is ideal for small-batch crafters and at-home spa users who want a dependable, additive-free clay to experiment with masks, hair treatments, soaps, and personal care formulations.
