Deposits can be found all over the world, where it is mined and processed.

Baking Soda
Everyone is familiar with baking soda, whether used in baking up yummy treats, left in the fridge to absorb smells or added to water as an ingredient to clean your home. It is pure white, has a mild gritty feel and is always aluminum free - we use it to eliminate the bacteria that is on the skin's surface, and to free you from embarrassing body odor.
Canadian Glacial Clay
Untouched for thousands of years, this mineral and micronutrient rich clay is carefully hand harvested and only found in beautiful British Columbia. Over time, glacial movement transformed volcanic ash and rock into green montmorillonite clay. It is the very fine particles made up of minerals and elements that give the glacial waters of this area its blue-green color. Processed to the size of pollen, clay draws harmful toxins out of the skin. Positively charged bacteria is drawn to the negative ions in the clay, resulting in detoxification from environmental pollutants. It re-hydrates the skin and stimulates blood circulation.
