Australian Pink Clay is everywhere in the beautysphere – but have you ever wondered what it is exactly, or what makes it such a purifying powerhouse? If the answer is, ‘Well, come to think of it, yeah kind of’, read on. Our definitive guide to Australian Pink Clay will answer all your questions, and more.
But first, let’s start with the query that got you clicking in the first place – what IS Australian Pink Clay? In the most simple, non-sciencey terms (you’re welcome), it’s a cult skincare ingredient used in a bunch of beauty products – most often face masks – to draw out impurities, toxins and excess oils, and help brighten and refine the complexion. The hero of our very own Detoxify range, it’s THE ingredient you need to add to cart if you want itty-bitty pores and bright, beautiful, silky-smooth skin.
A mix of ultra-gentle white kaolin clay (great for sensitive skin) and pore-unclogging red kaolin clay (great for oily skin), Australian Pink Clay plays nicely with all skin types. Combining mass appeal with major results, it’s the all-natural ingredient that’s placed A-Beauty firmly on the map.
