I used benonite clay mixed with apple cider vinegar to cure my chronically stinky pits. It worked! I’m now able to use natural deodorant.

In reply to Denise. Hi Denise, as far as I know, bentonite should always be removed after a few minutes. And yes, it works well for oily hair. Just mix bentonite with water, let it settle for a few hours and shake it up. Even so, some of the clay will settle. Don't use that bit.

Hi Gio!
I am wondering if it is safe to use bentonite powder as a sheer powder for oily skin? Any thoughts on leaving a bit of the clay on your skin for a long period of time?
Furthermore, would it help with oily hair? How can I use it as a mask?
Thank you so much for your website! It is really wonderful!

In reply to Barbara. Barbara, that's exactly what I was thinking. People are crazy. I think I'll keep getting my dose of bentonite from facial masks. But thanks for sharing the link. It's very interesting indeed.

Seeing this I cannot resist sharing that apparently kitty litter (without scent) contains bentonite and can be used…. as a mask! You might read this and then go crazy thinking “what is this girl talking about!?” I´ll attach you the link where I found the video.

In reply to Janessa. Janessa, kaolin clay is very good for oil reduction too. Thanks! Happy New Year to you too!
