Responsibly sourced black clay from Brazil
Black Clay
Edition Date :
October 17, 2022
Clays are 100% natural materials made of very thin silicate particles, mixed with mineral oxides that give them their colors. They are responsibly extracted in Brazil, where the specific geology of the soil confers them properties that proved to be beneficial for the skin and/or hair.
Black Clay is mainly formed by silicon dioxide besides aluminum oxide and ferric oxide with a particle size distribution of, as a maximum, 15 μm. It has proven efficacy to treat both hair and scalp.
