Why Bentonite Clay for Insect Bites?
Bentonite clay is renowned for its ability to soothe skin irritations, including those caused by insect bites. Its unique mineral composition, negative electrical charge, and fine powder texture make it ideal for drawing out impurities, calming inflammation, and providing gentle relief.
“Bentonite clay has a negative electrical charge that can draw positively charged impurities like bacteria from your pores. It also has a proven ability to soak up sebum, and less sebum means less clogged pores. Plus, it’s a mild exfoliator, which means it clears away dead skin cells and keeps your pores clearer.”
