Ingredient Deep Dive
Kaolin Clay
What it does:
Acts as the primary mineral component of the mud bath, gently absorbing impurities while remaining mild on skin.
Why it matters:
Leaves skin feeling clean, soft, and refreshed without the dryness associated with harsher clays.
Why we use it:
Kaolin is one of the mildest cosmetic clays, making it suitable for regular use.
Trigumvirate Complex
What it is:
A proprietary blend of three plant-based gums: (xanthan, guar, and tara) designed to work together as a functional texture and suspension system.
Why it matters:
This multi-gum approach creates a smoother, more stable mud bath than any single gum alone, preventing grit, separation, or uneven dispersion in water.
Why we use it:
Each gum contributes a distinct performance role. By balancing them precisely, we achieve spa-quality texture without synthetic or petroleum-based thickeners.
Xanthan Gum
What it does:
Provides immediate viscosity and water binding when the powder meets hot water.
Why it matters:
Helps the mud bath thicken quickly and evenly, preventing minerals from sinking or clumping.
Why we use it:
Xanthan gum performs reliably across a wide temperature range, supporting consistent dispersion during use.
Tara Gum
What it does:
Contributes long-term stability and smoothness to the gum matrix.
Why it matters:
Helps maintain a uniform texture throughout the soak, even with extended time in the bath.
Why we use it:
Tara gum supports stability without heaviness, allowing a balanced, lightweight feel.
Guar Gum
What it does:
Adds body and softness to the mud texture, improving slip and flow.
Why it matters:
Creates a more cushiony, spa-like feel on the skin rather than a thin or watery bath.
Why we use it:
Guar enhances sensory feel while remaining gentle and plant-derived.
Chocolate Extract
What it does:
Provides natural color and contributes to the warm, indulgent sensory profile of the bath.
Why it matters:
Enhances the visual and aromatic experience, reinforcing the feeling of a luxurious, spa-inspired soak.
Why we use it:
We prioritize to use naturally derived cocoa upcycled from the food industry to support both aesthetics and experience.
Charcoal Extract
What it does:
Provides natural color and contributes to the detoxifying benefits of the charcoal mud bath.
Why it matters:
Creates a rich, dark appearance that absorbs even more toxins in your detoxifying, mineral-inspired soak.
Why we use it:
We use charcoal extract for its aesthetic and experiential qualities, rather than synthetic dyes, to support a naturally derived formula.
Fragrance
What it does:
An optional addition that adds an earthy scent profile that enhances the overall sensory experience of the Original Mud Bath.
Why it matters:
Scent plays a key role in relaxation and perception, helping transform the bath into a spa-like ritual.
Why we use it:
We use fragrance carefully and at low levels to elevate the experience without overpowering the formula.
Maltodextrin
What it does:
Acts as a carrier and processing aid, helping disperse powdered ingredients evenly in water, particularly fragrance in our mud baths.
Why it matters:
Supports consistent performance by preventing clumping and improving fragrance solubility during use.
Why we use it:
Maltodextrin helps deliver a uniform, easy-to-use powder without unnecessary fillers.
Designed for the Senses
From the way the powder disperses in water to the feel of your skin afterward, every ingredient contributes to a unique, luxurious, calming at home mud bath experience.
