Bentonite Clay (1 ounce) Bentonite Clay is very unusual because once it becomes hydrated, the electrical and molecular components of the clay rapidly change and produce an "electrical charge." Its highest power lies in absorbing toxins, impurities, heavy metals, and other internal contaminants. Bentonite clay's structure assists it in attracting and soaking up poisons on its exterior wall. It slowly draws them into the clay's interior center, where it is held in a repository.
Blue Clay (.5 ounce) Derived from weathered volcanic ash, blue clay is rich in mineral nutrients. With excellent detoxifying properties, this clay is perfect for oily skin, drawing out impurities and producing clearer, cleaner pores. Blue montmorillonite clay is the most potent of all clays. It is the one that presents the highest efficiency in terms of detoxification.
Fuller's Earth Clay, aka Indian Healing Clay (1 ounce) Fuller's Earth is a naturally occurring sedimentary clay composed mainly of alumina, silica, iron oxides, lime, magnesia, and water in highly variable proportions. It has the incredible ability to remove oils and impurities from the skin and produces a lightening effect on the outer epidermal layer. This is why we have seen several products marketed as "facial bleach" or "skin bleaching" clay. It comes highly recommended to those with acne problems, blemishes, spotting, and people prone to oily skin. It is also a beneficial base ingredient for facial clay recipes and adds a nice finishing touch to clay products, promising to aid its user with their battle against oily skin.
French Green Clay (1 ounce) French Green Clay is one of our global community's most majestic, most effective, and most commonly used mineral skin clays. Gently exfoliating, French Green Clay (AKA Illite Clay) contains a cornucopia of valuable elements, which include montmorillonite, several (up to 9) important mineral oxides, magnesium, calcium, potassium, dolomite, silica, manganese, phosphorous, silicon, copper, and selenium.
Red Kaolin Clay (1 ounce) Red Kaolin Clay has a considerably stronger drawing power than other Kaolin Clay's. While most clay in the Kaolin variety is ideal for dry, sensitive, and normal skin types, Red Kaolin is more suitable for oily skin. It can make a great addition to acne masks or detoxifying body wraps. Its bold, dusty red-orange coloring makes it an ideal additive for coloring heavy-duty soaps. Due to its strong drawing ability, Red Kaolin Clay should not be used in a facial more than once per week.
Rhassoul Clay (1 ounce) This remarkable natural source comes from Morocco, reddish brown cosmetic clay known as Rhassoul. It has been used for over 1400 years as a soap, shampoo, and skin conditioner, and the finest spas across the globe currently utilize it for therapeutic benefits. It must be extracted under extraordinary conditions when it lies deep beneath the Atlas Mountains in Eastern Morocco. Through meticulous selection and extensive contact with the raw material, we are proud to offer this rich Rhassoul that is unique in quality and purity. When first mined, Rhassoul clay appears chunky, polished brown, soap-like clay resembling rocks. After further refinement and micronization, the end product is a smooth, almost silken earth.
Rose Kaolin Clay (1 ounce)
Sea Clay (1 ounce) Sea Clay is excellent for ALL skin types! Used in masks, bath products, powders, and soap. The high mineral content helps to draw impurities from the skin.
Yellow Clay (1 ounce) Yellow Kaolin Clay is a mild clay, making it suitable for sensitive skin. It helps stimulate circulation to the skin while gently exfoliating and cleansing it. Yellow Kaolin Clay does not draw oils from the skin excessively and can be used on most dry skin types. It can be used in soap and body powders.
White Kaolin Clay (1 ounce) White Kaolin Clay is found in virtually all powdered, dry, and most wet cosmetics. Its natural adsorbent properties make it essential in hygiene products, and it is often found in soaps, scrubs, poultices, deodorants, facial powders, and masks. It is the mildest of all clays and is suitable to add to products created for people with sensitive skin. It helps stimulate circulation to the skin while gently exfoliating and cleansing it. It does not draw oils from the skin, so it can also be used on dry skin types without negative results.
Shelf Life and Storage Information for Our Products and Ingredients
Finished Products - generally don't need to be refrigerated as they are preserved, but you can refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. The shelf life for most products is 9-12 months. Vitamin C Serum(s) and VitaResurface products should continually be refrigerated to extend their shelf life. Sample Sizes - do have a shorter shelf life (generally 3-6 months), and items in jars can dry up quicker than this if the lid is not tightened well enough (Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).
Please Keep Your Products Out of Humidity, Heat, Direct Light and in a Dark Cabinet When Possible
Exfoliating Acid - products have a shelf life of 9-12 months. The only things we don't suggest refrigerating are the Mandelic Acid Serums or Salicylic Acid Serums, as they can crystallize in the refrigerator. If this happens, you can set the product into a hot water bath to see if the crystals will dissolve.
Additional Items That Require Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark
Hydrosols and Distillates - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it to a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator. Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take the oil out, warm it up at room temperature, and it should liquefy. If not, set the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shake the bottle, which will hopefully turn into a liquid. Some oils, like coconut cream and jojoba oil, have a super long shelf life.
Refrigeration of The Following Ingredients is Not Necessary, But it Won't hurt
Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool, dark place. Co2 Extracts - these should continually be refrigerated. Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare" butters. You can remove what you need and keep the rest in the fridge. Clays - keep in a dry, dark place. Shelf life is at least 2 years. Herbs All herbs <i>(whole or ground)</i> should be kept in a dark, cool, and dry location. Herbal (liquid) Extracts are created using grain alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herb, root, trunk, leaf, and flower. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be stored in the refrigerator or a dark, dry place. Other Raw Ingredients - such as Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc., will all have different shelf lives.

Magic in a bottle!
This product has become a required staple in my skincare routine. I use it everyday on my very sensitive skin that is prone to redness and dryness. Not only is it extremely calming and soothing, but it also makes my skin look more plump and moisturized. I never want to be without this product; it has shot to the top of my "best skincare products of all time" list, next to the gentle cleansing gel. I highly recommend trying this if you have sensitive or aging skin that needs a boost of rejuvenation.

Great to have on hand if you use a lot of actives!
Sometimes, you just need a great soothing moisturizer, and this one is my new favorite! I recently graduated from using retinol to tretinoin and whoaaaaa boy. All my other creams had actives that were only making the tret burn worse. This was perfect for helping soothe my skin, and now I use it to buffer the tret!

Love this! Works for my skin & allergic reactions! 😊
Yayyyyy, thank you for sharing this!
Not having any allergic reactions to a product is such a blessing.
Let us know how things go after a couple of months.
I find this product to be very beneficial for my aging skin as well.

I finally got around to using this. I decided that it did not meld well with the collective butters and oils I used. I ended up adding rose and mimosa wax to cover it up!
Rae Lynn,
We are sorry this happened. • ᴖ •
The name is deceiving. Although it is genuinely from the carnation flower, it doesn't
smell like a carnation. It has lovely properties, though.
We do hope the final formula has worked for you.
Your team from GoW.
I got this to harden a lotion bar recipe. It did the trick. I may have used a bit too much, though! I think I will back off to 1 oz next time.
Hi Rae Lynn
Good for you! I can't even share the length of time it took to create skin care products, or how hard those waxes were to work with. They still are at times.
Please keep in touch if you have any questions.
We are always here to help.

I finally got around to using this. It smells good.
