Clay blue and Nettle powder 50 g

Blue clay and nettle powder combined mineral botanical base for cleansing and balancing formulations

Blue clay and nettle powder in combination represent a ready to use mineral botanical system where both phases work together as a single functional base. This format is widely used in face masks scalp treatments SPA applications and dry mixes designed for activation with water or hydrosols. The highest demand is in cosmetic and natural formulations where strong cleansing performance structured texture and simplified composition are required.

What it is and where it is used

The combined blend is used as a base ingredient for masks pastes and dry cleansing systems. It is applied in formulations for face body and scalp care as well as in powder products that are hydrated before use.

This approach reduces formulation complexity while maintaining functional performance through a pre balanced composition.

How it works

The system functions as a combined dispersed structure. The mineral fraction forms the base and adsorbs impurities while the botanical fraction is evenly distributed within the matrix enhancing the overall composition.

When mixed with liquid the blend transforms into a plastic paste that spreads easily and maintains structural consistency on the surface.

Properties

Forms a stable paste upon hydration
Provides effective cleansing performance
Creates a dense yet flexible texture
Enhances formulation richness through botanical content
Influences color and visual appearance
Ensures even distribution during application

Applications across industries

In cosmetics it is used in face and body masks scalp treatments and dry formulations

In SPA applications it is used in wraps and cleansing procedures

In natural product manufacturing it serves as a base for powdered systems

In household formulations it can be used in simple cleansing pastes

Behavior in formulation

The blend is insoluble in water and works as a dispersed system. When liquid is added it forms a suspension with a paste like consistency.

It maintains structural stability when the ratio of powder to liquid is balanced. Viscosity and density can be adjusted by modifying the liquid phase.

How to use

The blend is used as a dry base or activated with water or hydrosols directly before application. In formulations it is incorporated into the aqueous phase with mixing until a uniform paste is obtained.

No heating is required and it is suitable for cold processing systems.

Recommended usage level

In ready to use masks it is typically used from 30 percent to 90 percent of the total formulation

In dry systems it can represent up to 100 percent of the base

Liquid content is adjusted to achieve the desired consistency

Formulation example

Ready to use cleansing mask based on mineral botanical blend

Blue Clay and Nettle Powder Blend — 70 g
Chamomile Hydrosol — 60 ml
Glycerin — 5 ml
Panthenol — 3 ml
Phenoxyethanol Ethylhexylglycerin — 2 ml

Processing

The dry blend is gradually added into the prepared liquid phase with continuous mixing until a uniform paste is formed. Consistency is adjusted by controlling the amount of liquid.

Panthenol and Phenoxyethanol Ethylhexylglycerin are added after the base structure is formed. Mixing continues until the system becomes fully homogeneous.

Important considerations

The system is insoluble and requires mixing before use.

Final performance depends on the ratio of components and the liquid phase. Proper formulation ensures stable texture consistent application and predictable behavior in cleansing products.
