What is Calcium Bentonite?
Bentonite Clays are impure absorbent clays consisting mainly of Montmorillonite (which is a soft silicate mineral) with a dominant element attached; in this case 'Calcium'. Most bentonite clays are produced during the water erosion of volcanic ash sediments produced following volcanic eruptions. 
 
Calcium Bentonite / Fullers Earth Properties.
Calcium Bentonite occurs as a light brown clay fine powder at room temperature; it has excellent absorbent properties and is capable of absorbing most forms of liquid (including oils). It has praised for its skin reviving properties for many years due to its mineral content and antiseptic properties. 
 
Bentonite Clays also help to replace lost moisture and remove excess oil from the skin; they improve blood flow which encourages rejuvenation and leave skin feeling smooth and soft. Its high mineral content help remove toxins from the skin leaving clean, smooth, soft, detoxified, repaired and rejuvenated skin.

You can a few drops of Tee Tree Oil to the paste during mixing to increase the antiseptic properties to help remove spots.
