NATURE & CLAY makes soap using pure domestic clay mined in Mochiyama, Yabu City, Hyogo Prefecture.

In this article, what is KOSHIBA soap and clay? I will write about it in detail.

　　

　　　

●What is KOSHIBA soap?

This soap contains ``Koshibaku Clay'' (Shiroyama Clay), which contains a lot of minerals such as silicon, aluminum, and potassium.

　

We do not use quality stabilizers, preservatives, chemical fragrances, or chemical dyes, and we use high-quality vegetable oils.

Combined with mineral water.

Minerals give firmness to the skin and improve the texture of the skin.

　　

The process of soap saponification (alkaline reaction) is made using the "cold process manufacturing method", which allows the soap to mature slowly and naturally without heating.

The oils and fats do not deteriorate during the manufacturing process, and active ingredients such as glycerin produced by the saponification reaction and vitamins in the raw oil are preserved.

It is left whole and included.

　

Glycerin is an excellent moisturizing ingredient that creates a thin film on the skin that helps keep the skin hydrated.

Quality control is very difficult and it is not suitable for mass production, but we want to cherish the feeling of soap, so we

Each item is handmade using cold process manufacturing methods.

　　

You can always feel beautiful in body and mind with the comfort of nature.

KOSHIBA SHIROYAMA soap is what I was looking for.

　　

　　

●What is “clay”?

Shiroyama Clay is located in the center of the Tajima area in northern Hyogo Prefecture.

It is mined at Shiroyama in Yabu City.

　

Shiroyama clay is made from mud deposited in an ancient lake that was hydrothermally metamorphosed by the earth's crust.

Nurtured by water heated by underground magma, etc.

It is a material that was formed during the process of becoming the rock we know today over 56 million years.

　

When you look at clay under a microscope, you can see that it has many thin layers overlapping each other.

　

The surface of the layer is negatively charged, and the edges are positively charged.

This huge negatively charged area exerts a strong adsorption force.

The negatively charged clay molecule surface attracts and adsorbs positively charged waste products, heavy metals, and other toxins.

It will be discharged along with the clay.

　

By adding clay, the cleaning effect can be improved.

　

In addition, more than 50% of the molecules that make up clay are silicon.

Our silicon has been confirmed to express the uncoupling protein UCP1 in university research.

　

This protein is known as a molecule that dissipates energy as heat.

Research is underway to develop treatments for obesity and diabetes.

　

At our company, we aim to improve the skin barrier function by generating heat.

Clay is added to cosmetics (soaps, bath salts, etc.).

　

Clay is a collection of multiple mineral elements, and these minerals control the balance of resident bacteria.

　　

　　

●Effects of clay

Dirt on your skin is charged with positive ions, while clay is charged with negative ions.

By using water mixed with "clay" in soap,

It attracts dirt from deep within the pores to the surface of the skin like a magnet.

　

In addition, "clay" is rich in minerals, so

It allows you to cleanse your skin while replenishing it with the nutrients it needs.

　

〔Example of use〕

・Clay bath: Just add a pinch of clay to your bath.

・Clay pack: Make it into a paste and apply it to your face, etc., and wash it off gently without rubbing.

・Clay water spray...just mix it with water. Spray it on your skin as a mist.

*Cleanses the skin and keeps it healthy. Prevents spots and freckles caused by acne and sunburn,

Moisturizes the skin.
