Description
Pyrophyllite is a crystalline mineral compound. It is soft, lubricating, light in colour, and may be used as a substitute for talc.
Extraction method: Harvested
Shelf life: Indefinite when stored properly
Storage: Keep sealed in a cool, dark place. Heat, oxygen, moisture, and light degrade the product.
Application / Usage
May be used in soaps, cleansers, masks, and many other formulations. It may be useful as a thickener in some personal care recipes, or as a mild abrasive. It is prone to clumping when mixed with a liquid— for smoothest blending, whisk slowly into the liquid rather than adding liquid to the clay. To avoid wasting product, start with small measurements and incrementally work your way up.
Not for internal use. Avoid inhalation.
