Rose Clay 🌸
A Gentle, Balancing Clay for Sensitive & Dry Skin
🌸 What is Rose Clay?
Rose clay, also called pink clay, is a blend of kaolin clay (white clay) and trace minerals (like iron oxide) that give it a soft pink hue. Milder than green or bentonite clays, it’s ideal for sensitive, dry, or mature skin, offering gentle detoxification without over-drying.
✨ Key Benefits

- Soothing & Calming: Reduces redness and irritation (great for rosacea or reactive skin).
- Balancing: Regulates sebum for combination skin.
- Anti-Aging: Improves circulation and promotes collagen production for a radiant glow.
- Mild Exfoliation: Softens texture by removing dead skin cells.
