Product details

Plant Guru Sodium Bentonite Clay Powder is a 5 lb bulk supply of 100% natural Indian healing clay designed for deep pore cleansing, DIY skincare, hair treatments, and bath soaks.

This finely milled sodium bentonite clay is sourced from weathered volcanic ash and packaged in the USA. It’s a single-ingredient powder intended for topical use in masks, scrubs, and bath blends. Because it acts like a gentle adsorbent, it’s frequently chosen by people who want to remove surface impurities, manage oily skin, or add a mineral-rich component to handcrafted cosmetics and home spa rituals.

How do I mix and use this clay for a facial mask?

For a basic facial mask, combine one part clay with about three parts liquid to reach a spreadable paste consistency. Use water for a gentle routine or apple cider vinegar for a slightly stronger, astringent effect; apply a thin layer to clean skin and rinse after 5–10 minutes.

  • Mix ratio: 1 part clay : 3 parts water or apple cider vinegar.
  • Application tip: Avoid eyes and sensitive mucous areas.
  • Timing: 5–10 minutes for normal skin; shorter for sensitive skin.
  • Rinse: Use warm water and a soft washcloth to remove.

What other uses does sodium bentonite clay have at home?

This clay is versatile for DIY skincare and household crafts. It can be combined into hair masks, foot soaks, bath blends, soap recipes, and personal-care projects like deodorant or armpit detox treatments.

  • Hair: Mix with water or aloe to create a clarifying hair mask.
  • Baths: Add several tablespoons to a warm soak for mineral-rich relaxation.
  • Soapmaking: Use as a natural colorant and texture modifier.
  • Crafts: Incorporate into bath bombs, scrubs, and salves.

Is this product safe and where does it come from?

Plant Guru sodium bentonite is a single-ingredient, mineral clay mined from ancient volcanic ash deposits and processed in the USA. It’s sold as a topical external-use product; follow label directions and discontinue if irritation occurs.

  • Sourcing: Extracted from weathered volcanic ash deposits.
  • Processing: Mined and packaged in the United States.
  • Ingredients: 100% sodium bentonite (no added fragrances or fillers).
  • Safety: For external use only; patch-test before full application.

How should I store and portion a 5 lb bag to keep it fresh?

Keep the powder dry and sealed to prevent clumping and contamination. Transfer portions into smaller airtight containers for daily use while keeping the main bag closed and stored in a cool, dry place.

  • Storage: Airtight, moisture-free container away from heat and sunlight.
  • Portioning: Use small jars or scoops to avoid repeated exposure to the bulk bag.
  • Shelf life: Indefinite when dry; discard if exposed to moisture or foreign material.
  • Hygiene: Use clean, dry utensils for scooping.

Who is this for? Plant Guru Sodium Bentonite Clay Powder is aimed at home formulators, beauty enthusiasts, and anyone who prefers a zero‑ingredient, mineral option for face masks, hair clarifying treatments, and bath rituals. The 5 lb bulk size suits salons, small-batch makers, and regular users who want value and the flexibility to customize blends without added fragrances or preservatives.
