Great purifying product
I bought this clay to make my scrubs and masks. I love the properties that leave skin clear and free of impurities. unfortunately it's not the edible one but ok.

works well in deoderant
I have nothing to compare this too, so this is just an observation from the deoderant I have made. It seems to work just like I wanted it too! I have no odor.

Absolutely in LOVE with this!
I have researched Bentonite clay / Volcanic ash and the benefits of using it for over 6 mos but was still apprehensive about trying it. For years I thought I had acne but my skin never responded to any products or antibiotics. I recently found out it's because I had Psoriasis and was actually doing more harm than good with all these products. I have made clay masks with the Bentonite mixed with water and after only 2 masks I have seen a HUGE difference! On other sites it suggests some sellers' products may not be of great quality. I LOVE LOVE LOVE BA's products! They have never let me down. You can feel the product working on your skin. I highly recommend it!

Bentonite Clay
The product is great. It is exactly what was expected. The ordering and service were prompt and timely.The only question was the shipping cost . It was as much as the product through U.P.S.

Excellent Product
I purchased this for my skin care line and absolutely love it. I used hydrosols and purified water to wet it - it did take a lot more hydrosols and water than I expected, but the end product was fantastic. My skin and those of my test subjects was really clean and soft. The price was better than anywhere else I looked.

Best for all skin types
This is an amazing product. It is almost gel-like and the skin looks fabulous after treatment.
