Pumice is a light, porous volcanic rock that is formed during explosive eruptions and resembles a sponge because it consists of a network of gas bubbles frozen amidst fragile volcanic glass and minerals. Pumice is an excellent exfoliating medium to remove dead and rough skin and leaves the skin silky smooth. Pumice is used chiefly as an abrasive and is included in many scouring preparations.
Ground pumice is also used in finishing furniture. It is also found in mechanic’s soaps as well as various cleaning preparations. We offer two grades: Fine and Extra-fine. Fine works great for foot scrubs and similar applications. Extra-fine works great for application to sensitive skin and for making soap. All of our pumices comply with Calif. Prop. 65. Mesh size: 40-100 (grade 1-1/2).
PACKAGING: Purchasing 10 lbs., 25 lbs. or larger
quantities of a powder product (clay, pumice or any product listed in our
Salts, Sugars & Powders category) doesn’t mean you’ll receive one package
containing all of the pounds purchased. We
will prepare individual plastic bags whose weights will add up to the total
number of purchased pounds. For example,
do not expect 25 lbs. of a powder product to be packed in one 25 lb. bag. There could be the rare occasion where we
could receive from the manufacturer a 50 lb. factory-sealed bag and we’ll turn
around and ship the same bag to a customer who ordered 50 lbs. of a powder
product.

I like to blend this with the extra-fine pumice in my products, but I've used it alone in foot scrubby soaps and the sell very well. I will always come back here for more.

HOW PRODUCTS ARE DISPENSED...
BOTTLING/PACKAGING:
Essential oils: Are sold only in the quantities/net weights listed on our website. These oils are shipped to us by the distiller or manufacturer in industry-standard metal or plastic containers and that’s how we ship them to you.
Carrier oils and most other liquids are dispensed in individual HDPE plastic pails or containers with some type of handle, each container holds the purchased net weight of liquid.
Soft butters such as Horsetail and Almond are dispensed in plastic HDPE pails w/metal handles; those butters may remain inside the pails indefinitely when properly stored. Hard butters such as Cocoa are dispensed factory-wrapped in plastic and placed inside a box. Castile Gel is dispensed in a self-contained cubitainer with pouring spout.
NOTE: While the packaging methods mentioned above are generalized, we reserve the right to dispense and ship in any available container. If a customer at any time feels more comfortable transferring an essential or carrier oil to glass, this should be done.
Raw materials/ingredients are sold and dispensed by weight. Many customers ask how many ounces are in a pound, there are 16 ounces in one pound. These are not fluid ounces, they are ounces by weight.
HOW TO STORE: EOs, FOs and BUTTERS should be stored in tightly-sealed containers away from direct light and heat. Some EOs and FOs could be highly flammable, keep away from open flames and from varnished or wood surfaces. Keep all liquids and powders you purchase from Camden-Grey tightly capped and away from the reach of children, the elderly or infirm and pets. Refrigerating butters could adversely affect the consistency of a butter, please join our Forum if you need to learn how to handle, work with and store products.
