No more trade-offs: your favorite moisturizing cream and a mix-in exfoliating grit.

PURE. NATURAL. HIGHLY EFFECTIVE.

The SEM micrograph below concisely illustrates why pumice is such an effective exfoliant and so widely used for that purpose in skin care and cleanser product formulations. What you’re seeing is the highly-magnified surface of tiny powdered pumice particles. Note the variety, number, and sharpness of the edges—and therein lies the magic.

Pumice is essentially a frothy glass stone with incredible friability, meaning that even when crushed to a superfine grit, it retains it foamy, multi-edged character. That means highly effective exfoliation at a microscopic—thus gentle—scale. Pumice-enhanced scrubs and soaps and creams exfoliate without needing harsh chemical help. A gentle scrubbing is all it takes.

Pumice as an exfoliant has a proven track record—it has been used for many years as a gentle-yet-effective grit in exfoliating products.

Pumice is used so widely because it is cost effective, sustainable, and eco-friendly. The valuable performance characteristics of pumice are inherent and the refining-to-grade process is minimal. Pumice is abundant and benign. And unlike biodegradable botanical grits, pumice does it add a carbon source with the potential to unbalance the eco system that it is eventually washed into.

The Magma source—the Hess pumice deposit—is naturally white (84 brightness on the GE scale) and of a natural purity that puts our pumice in demand world-wide.

With Magma in your beauty-product kit, all that performance-proven effectiveness can be readily mixed into the products you already use and trust, providing an exfoliating charge anytime you need it.

Use Magma™ as a stir-in exfoliant with your favorite cream, gel, or cleanser.

Magma™ is a fine pumice powder, making it easy to pair it with a favorite beauty product. You also have full control over the aggressiveness—just add less or more of the exfoliating powder depending on skin type and the task at hand.

INGREDIENTS: Fine, pure natural pumice.

DIRECTIONS: Apply a small amount of your favorite liquid soap, cleanser or moisturizer in the palm of your hand. Add a pinch of Magma and mix thoroughly. Rub onto skin using a circular motion and rinse with warm water.

WATER ONLY: Magma™ pairs great with just warm water! With a soft, moist cloth, dab on a little Magma and rub gently onto skin in circular motion. Rinse with warm water. Or form a loose paste with Magma and warm water, rub in a circular motion and rinse.
