Precautions & Patch Test Guidance
Do not let clay dry to a bone-dry, tight cracking stage on skin; wash off while still slightly damp to avoid dehydrating healthy skin barrier lipids. Perform patch test.
For any topical preparation, always conduct a 24-hour inner-arm skin patch test first. Informational traditional wisdom only—not medical advice. Read full Health Disclaimer .
