Very dark clay. A little will go a long way. I add the clay to my water phase and it brings out the most color in my cp soaps. Love that NDA has so many of the clays available.

I absolutely love this clay! It's incredibly intense and as others have mentioned a little goes a very, very long way. When cut with lighter clays it makes an amazing facial mask and provides amazing color to cp soap with true sticking power. It's also divine in lotions and hair care products at a low percentage. I purchased the 2.2lb container in Dec and I still have tons left and am always excited to use it whenever I get the chance!

Adds great color to CP soap. Turned out a nice warm red brick color. I've been wearing gloves when handling this product - will very easily stain skin and whatever else it touches.

Interesting clay and fascinating color... Unfortunately it's not for me unless I'm using in my soap / hair tint lines. A VERY little goes a VERY long way. This clay has a natural oil in it which gives it the appearance of staining the skin. I tested it on my mineral blush makeup and the results were quite interesting to say the least. I had nice rusty color cheeks for 2 days which is great but when I wash my makeup off - it needs to come off. If using this for a makeup line, might I suggest this for darker tone skin as it would be much more flattering than for someone with pale skin... Unless you're trying to achieve the Dawn of the Dead look, then knock yourself out. Almost forgot - it DOES however, make an excellent natural looking eye shadow for all skin tones, just takes a bit of blending.

I love the other clays, but found this one deadly for use as a face mask. It stains everything! I ruined two face cloths, loads of paper towels and one cloth towel trying to clean up after this clay using it as a face mask. My bathroom floor grout now has a burgundy color to it! Don't like it at all!

When colouring a product, be sure to use as little as a smidge and work up in quantity until the desired colour is reached. These Australian clays are very dark, and do stain! Even bathtubs!!!

Great product! I add this clay to my CP soap for a natural deep burgundy colour and it's beautiful. It's best for normal to oily skin.
