Thanks so much for the post!!!!! The differing clays would make not only a

great boredom buster, but a super home school art lesson in the varieties

of clay that can be molded.

Great ideas!!!!

Add to body powders and facial scrubs & masks. Depending on the type of

clay. White is good for normal/dry skin; while green for oily skin.

Clay masks are also often used for the body masks. Just like in a high

priced spa. I've also added some to my body scrubs. They are good for

withdrawing impurities from the skin.

Hi Lonie,

I use clays for facial masks, as additions to various soaps and I use a little

kaolin (china) in my body powders. I don't know of any other uses, but someone

else may come up with other suggestions.

Howdy, Yall:

I was wondering how you all use clay. I have a wonderful

sample pack (From Nature with Love) and I would like

to try new things with.

I do not make soap.

smiles, Lonie

During certain times of the year, scarlet macaws of the Amazon jungles eat seeds

that are toxic when they are green. During this time, they naturally flock to

the clay bluffs and eat the clay which not only neutralizes the acid, but is an

antedote for the toxins. Usually they are birds only found in pairs, but during

the toxic season, they will gather by the hundreds to heal themselves on these

cliffs. Other animals wallow in mud and clay, for various reasons. Insect

repellant for one, but the muds also draw out toxins and help prevent sunburn

for furless critters. I find it interesting that in nature, animals are

attacted to muds and clays. (much like my sons have.....:))
