It’s filled with minerals and is considered by many to have a shelf life of 4-5 years. It is important to note that Bentonite clay is not suitable for ingestion.

Great quality at a great price
You can't beat this price and it's good quality clay. I've heard of bentonite clay leaving a weird residue. Not this stuff. Love it.

fantastic deal, excellent quality!
Very fine powder. Mixed up several tablespoons with an equal amount of purified water.Stirred a few times with a plastic spoon (never use metal with these clays) and the let it sit for about a half hour before applying to my face. Absolutely what I had hoped for! No chunks or weird gunk. Dried quickly..really tightened up..couldnt crack a smile when it dried! Loosened up the mask with a few splashes of warm water, removed the rest with a wash cloth..did an outstanding job controlling the oil in my t zone. Very pleased with this purchase!

Wonderful for skin and hair!
For me bentonite clay works great as a hair mask and facial cleanser/scrub. It came by mail within 3 business days of shipping and was very well packaged. I purchased the one pound and must say it is a great value. The clay also lasts a long while as a little goes a long way.

REady for toothpaste?
Well, I haven't used this yet, but plan to make a homemade toothpaste with it for my family. It'll be a great science project for homeschool!
It looks great and is packaged very well. -
Facial Toxins away!
Truly a great product! I came across Bentonite clay by accident and then read up on its properties and many uses. I have gone through a lot of chemo treatments over the past few years and it never fails those ugly toxins seep out later down the road in various ways sometimes. Mine was showing on my face out of the blue and I began using Bentonite clay in a mask form for 2 weeks...wonderful results! I am sharing this product to who ever is interested in having clean soft skin again!

Great results great price
I've been using this as a mask for my face and neck. It really cleaned out my pores and left my skin soft. The claim that it brings blood to the surface is accurate, It pulled up small red capillaries veins on the side of my nose, and left a slight darkness under my eyes, so I don't spread it around the side of my nose or under my eyes any more. It really leaves my skin glowing, I'm almost ready to stop wearing makeup. I had a hard time mixing the clay into a paste in the beginning but learned that if I mix it in an airtight jar and use it latter, the water and powder merge into each other very well and makes it smooth and easy to glide on. Because this is 'clay' I use a warm paper towel to get it off and throw it in the trash, I was concerned that it might block the plumbing pipes with sediment if I use a lot of it. No one has mentioned plumbing problems, but I plan on using this product A LOT, It works very well and is very inexpensive.
