- Hello everyone!
Today we are going to be looking at a selection of clay's from the wonderful "Foundinbio". Foundinbio are a small, family business based in Portugal and they are without a doubt my favourite supplier for clay.
If after viewing this video you would like to test Foundinbio's clays for yourself then you can find them here:
www.foundinbio.com
They even offer free shipping to almost anywhere in the world!
I reached out to Alex from Foundinbio a few weeks ago and asked him if he minded if I did a video on his clay's and not only did he agree, but he was also kind enough to gift me their sample pack, which features all 6 of the clay's that they offer in one handy pack. This pack enables you to test all the clay's they offer without the expense of paying for full size packs of each one.
Clays are extremely beneficial for use in soap, they add colour, they have various different skin loving properties and they can even help anchor your scent in soap.
When it comes to colouring soap naturally, there are a wide variety of options, but we love using clay as it really is so easy!
Today we will be testing all 6 of the clay's included in Foundinbio's sample pack, this includes: Dead Sea clay, Green clay, Rhassoul clay, Moroccan Red clay, green clay and white clay! I will be using them in two different ratios. The first will be 1 tsp of clay per pound of oil and the second ratio will be 1 tbsp of clay PPO. This will show you the kind of colour results that you can get just by using different ratios of clay to oil.
The video is quite a long one today! We have tried to condense it as much as possible, but we wanted to make it fairly detailed in order to give you as much information as possible!

Thank you so much for this. I’m going to try them out. 😊 your skin looks great
I've been making a shampoo bar with clay. I don't know if you watch other soaper's video's but Soap and Clay has some great recipe's and she puts clay in ALL her products. Clay is really SO great! I pretty much go to your CZcams video's and Soap and Clay for my info. Thanks so much for this! I'm going to have to check out FoundInBio.
THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!!! I have been searching high and low for the PERFECT small company to support and order clays from!!! NOW I know EXACTLY who!!! The sampler pack will do me perfectly, since I only make small batches just for my self and my household, so this is an EPIC FIND, and all thanks go to you, My Soaping Queen!!!!
You are so welcome Cindy! Really glad to be able to introduce you to this lovely little family business! The sample pack is the perfect size for someone who makes soap as a hobby or for pleasure rather than as a business!
I watched your video this morning, many thanks for the hints, information and demo of clays in soaps. I've tried the red clay and put too much in. The result was hideous. Now I'm going to give it another go. So many thanks for the education on clays. It was invaluable. 😍 😍
Best of luck with your second attempt Barbara, let me know how it turns out!
Thanks for passing the information along, I love supporting small companies!😍😉
You are very welcome. I agree, I will always choose a small business over a big corporation if possible!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. Love you
You are very welcome Saloni :-)
Wow, the price of those clays is almost too good to be true! Thank you so much for sharing. This is exactly what I've been looking for.
Loved this video. It was so interesting. Thanks so much ❤
The soap colours were lovely 😁
I appreciate you so much! Thank you for sharing
You are very welcome Connie
I am a big fan of your channels
Thank you Saloni, I am so glad you enjoy our channel!
Thanks Anne. Those clay colours in the soap were lovely.
They are beautiful aren't they Jill!
I already have this trial pack - but haven’t used any as yet.
You’ve spurred me on to try them in my soaps.
Thank you xxx
Go for it Tracey! Let us know how you get on with them :-)
very cool video I am just starting my soap making n ur videos r very informational ! thank u much!!!
Thank you Alicia, I hope that they help you :-)
I do have these clays and yet to use it. Thanks for the review.
They are lovely clays Stella. Let us know when you use them as we would love to hear how you get on with them :-)
Do you recommend mixing the clays in with the oils before you add the lye solution? I’m guessing that would mean you would be able to incorporate them a little better before you need to worry about your trace getting too thick? Thanks 😊
Thank you for sharing, love the different clays for natural colourants. Does the various amount of clay affect the lather in soap and is there a maximum amount you can use in clay? I will do some testing, but want a good starting point 😀. Love the way the red clay matched your hair 😍
Do you typically wrap to support gel stage with the individual bar molds? Like typically with loafs?
Love the video... i have used som of them befor. I wondered how you should blend them if you cant use a stickblender ( the blade is of metal)?
Hello Anette. I have never even thought of that before! I am always so careful to avoid using metal spoons or utensils, the blade of the stick blender never even crossed my mind - you have caught me out with this question! Honestly, we have been stick blending but if you wanted to avoid that then you could mix the soap by hand, though that would take a lot longer!

Tank you 🌞 hand mixing is toooooo much work for me😁
Maby i'l try to mix The clay with just a litle oil, and stir that in aftet emulsion
Which, would be your favorite for a facial soap?
It is so hard to choose! For me personally, I would go with either Dead Sea or Green clay as I have quite oily skin. If you have drier or more mature skin then Pink clay would be the way to go!
Thank you. I am in Portugal looking for local providers
You are welcome Dayana, I am so glad that we could make you aware of this lovely little company in your country :-)
Are these available in the US
They are! I just purchased the sample pack. Can’t wait to try them!
As Rebeca has kindly commented, yes they are! :-)
