Grades of COSMETIC RAW MATERIALS
CLAYS & KAOLINS FOR COSMETIC MANUFACTURING INFORMATION
Quality raw materials for use with fine cosmetic, skin care, beauty and personal care products.
CHEMICAL ANALYSIS | |
---|---|
ROSE CLAY | A pale reddish powder for use in face masks and color cosmetics |
SEA CLAY | This is gray, plastic clay mined from deposits originally under an ancient ocean. It is used in masks, mud packs, clay baths and in applications to draw impurities from the skin. |
RED CLAY | A yellowish, red powder clay suitable for use in mud therapies, facial masks, color cosmetics and soaps. |
RHASSOUL CLAY | A yellow/red plastic clay. For use in masks, muds, clay baths, etc. |
ZEOLITE | A natural green, high purity Zeolite capable of odor absorption, ion exchange, ammonium removal, etc. It has many cosmetic and personal care product applications such as a mild scrub and as a cleansing agent for absorption of impurities from the skin in masks applications. |
LION KAOLIN | A washed, soft, white kaolin clay for those requiring a high purity raw material. |
SIM 90 KAOLIN | A very white, strongly opaque, hard kaolin with high oil absorption. |
ELECTROS KAOLIN | An exceptionally fine, bulky, colloidal Kaolin meeting N.F and CTFA requirements. This material is free of mica, quartz and iron compounds. Quite suitable for many cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications. |
COSMETIC FDA BACTERIA GUIDELINES INFORMATION
FDA quality is for use where total microbacterial levels must be limited and guaranteed below the typical limits of good manufacturing practices or below the levels of the compendial specifications.
FDA BACTERIA GUARANTEED SPECIFICATIONS: | |
---|---|
Total plate count | Less than 100, typically zero |
Gm neg. count | Zero |
Mold count | Zero |
Yeast count | Zero |
COSMETIC GEMSTONE AMETHYST QUARTZ INFORMATION
This mineral in crushed from the finest & darkest South American Amethyst. It is carefully processed into a fine, just palpable, grain size. This grade is devoid of respirable sized particles (less than 10 micron) and so presents no respirable free silica hazard.

COSMETIC SCRUB LIST INFORMATION
Quality raw materials for use with fine cosmetic, skin care, beauty and personal care products.
PUMICE POWDER | A low density, mildly abrasive powder available in many different grit sizes. Suitable for use in facial exfoliating products, body scrubs and creams, hand soaps and as an exfoliator filler in facial masks and muds. Coarse grades for scenting, aromatherapy, coloring, etc. |
GEMSTONES | A group of brightly colored and carefully graded semiprecious natural gemstones which provide useful scrub and an outstanding opportunity to market a unique product. The gemstones include: amethyst purple, tourmaline black, sodalite blue, and garnet dark red |
SILK | A 40 micron, mechanically cut silk fiber. These fibers are at first invisible and impalpable. The fibers combine with each other into small balls during the scrubbing process. These little balls become the “grit” for exfoliation |
ZEOLITE | A natural green, high purity Zeolite capable of odor absorption, ion exchange, ammonium removal, etc. It is a mild scrub and a cleansing agent for absorption of impurities from the skin. |
WHITE ALUMINA | This is a very white, hard, angular abrasive. It is inert and useful as a wet scrub or as an air driven skin blast formulation |
DOLOMITE | Similar to Alumina in color. It is softer and will provide a buffer effect with water, various grit sized available |
HPQ 100-300 | This is an ultrapure quartz sand. It container only 35 ppm of impurities. Best for high end products |
CERAMIC COATED QUARTZ | This so called CCQ is available in many colors: red, yellow, green, blue & lovely muted color. The colors are permanently bonded to the quartz substate and cannot be removed. |
