European Green Clay Powder

100% Pure Natural Cosmetic Clay

European Green Clay — also known as French Green Clay or Illite — is one of the most celebrated cosmetic clays in the world, prized for centuries in European beauty traditions for its exceptional absorbency and fine, silky texture. Its distinctive sage-green color comes from a combination of iron oxides and decomposed plant matter (chlorophyll) naturally present in the clay deposits, which are primarily sourced from quarries in France and other parts of Europe.

A naturally occurring mineral clay composed primarily of illite and montmorillonite, European Green Clay is highly absorbent and draws moisture readily — making it one of the most effective clays for facial masque and skincare applications. Our European Green Clay is 100% pure, all-natural powder with no additives, fillers, or synthetic ingredients.
