Multani Mitti & Bentonite: Skin Saviours

Two Clays, Two Stories

Multani Mitti (Fuller's earth) and Bentonite clay are both incredible — but they work differently.

Multani Mitti

Sourced from Multan region historically, this clay is calcium-rich and best for oily, acne-prone skin.

Bentonite Clay

Formed from volcanic ash, bentonite has stronger drawing properties — great for deep detoxification.

Recipes

Glow Mask (any skin)

  • 1 tbsp Multani Mitti
  • 1 tsp rose water
  • 1/2 tsp honey

Deep Detox (oily skin)

  • 1 tbsp Bentonite
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • Mix in a non-metal bowl

Caution

Patch test always. Never use metal utensils with bentonite — it deactivates the clay.
