Clay in all its forms

Clay is a rich and authentic material, from our Mother Earth, which is born in a raw and authentic form. Once extracted from our French quarries, we dry it in the sun and store it and then grind it so that you can appreciate all its qualities.

Once ground, the powdered clay can take different granulometry.

From crushed clay to ultra-ventilated powder clay, each grain size (or granulometry) is specially designed for specific use of clay. Whether you want to enjoy its benefits via a plaster or make a face mask, you will need to choose a suitable granulometry.

Ultra-ventilated clay powder and surfine clay are perfect for use in face masks or hair. They can also be added to the bath water to benefit the whole body. Their grain is so fine that they melt in the blink of an eye to form a paste as light as silky.

Crushed, granulated or finely ground clay is ideal for the preparation of plasters and cataplasms, which require a significant amount of dough depending on the area to be treated. They are available in larger sizes (1kg or 3kg) and require a longer preparation time (between 2 hours and a few minutes).
