Abstract
For a very long time, clay has been widely utilized in cosmetics, and it is still one of the most widely used components today. There is clay for every skincare issue and problem, including dryness, irritation, sunburn, and oiliness. Finding the appropriate clay for the skin's type, texture, and needs is the primary consideration. The current effort attempts to compile knowledge on the many dermatological types of clay that are naturally present, their composition, and various views regarding the care, skin nourishment, and benefits needed to suit the various needs of various skin types. The present work aims to gather the information available on the different types of dermatological clays present naturally, their composition, and different perspectives regarding the care and skin nourishment, and their benefits required to suit different needs of different skin types.
