100% Natural Talc Powder for Facial Make-up, Absorption, Lubrication, and Multi-Purpose 0.5 LBS / 227 GMS

After every powder manufacturer switched to cornstarch, I tried to find other replacement options. Cornstarch breaks me out under my arms, crotch, and feet.I am so glad I found this. It works perfectly, and as an added benefit, it contains no fragrances.I filled a small travel-size powder bottle and almost a full-size powder bottle. The caps are easy to pop off and then snap back on.The powder is very silky, smooth, and not gritty.I love this product and highly recommend it.

So hard to find real talcum powder anymore and this is great stuff. I dust it on to keep fiberglass out and to put rubber gloves on sweaty hands. Recommend highly

Very fine, pure and odorless talc, the consistency reminds me of quality powdered sugar. It's high enough quality to treat sweaty areas, fight yeast infection risks, and maintain silicone tools after washing. It's almost too fine for old style powder bulb dispensers, but probably works great in pump-style powder dispensers. I ended up using a repurposed hair color bottle to dispense mine.

Great stuff, I used it to coat the inside of a bag that had a sticky waterproof coating. No more stickiness. Extremely fine grade, high quality Talc from Europe, not the garbage they now sell in the US. It's so fine you should wear a dust mask while using, or you'll inhale some.

Very fine, snow-white, silky-feeling talc, great for after bath to feel fresh and dry without perfumes. I also use it for cosmetic face powder in summer to get the shine off my nose. 4-stars out of 5 because the packaging is ridiculous. I can't imagine who thought it's a good idea to sell talcum powder, for any intended purpose, in a ziploc bag type package. Anyway (with a spoon and a funnel and much patience), I transferred my talc into an attractive glass bottle with a secure, screw-on metal top in which I tapped several small nail holes, to serve as a powder-sprinkling dispenser in my bathroom, and this solution works great. The product would be that much nicer if it came in such a bottle instead of a ziploc bag.Price is very reasonable, too, especially when you consider that you're not likely to find this product on any store shelf.

I have been unable to find any talc baby powder in local stores lately. Everything is corn starch these days despite the fact that both yeast and bacteria love corn starch and it’s a terrible idea to put it on your body!Found this on Amazon and you get more in better packaging for cheaper than Johnson & Johnson! Works just as well and you don’t have to put in on in essentially what amounts to a giant salt shaker!** I definitely recommend this to anyone and want to point out that corn starch baby powder is terrible to put on crotch area as it will literally make your issues down there worse.Talc powder has gotten a bad reputation lately and the reason for this is due to the corn industry basically realizing that corn starch can be sold as a personal care product for a much greater profit than it is sold for as a baking product. Talc was demonized as causing cancer when inhaled based on a single research study paid for by the corn industry. Researchers placed rats in a tank with the bottom couple inches filled with Talc and observed them compared to an identical tank without the Talc. After LIVING IN and breathing Talc for a few years quite a few of the rats did indeed get lung cancer from inhaling it all day every day. Researchers then concluded that Talc caused cancer and now it’s almost impossible to find in stores…The TRUTH is Talc can cause lung cancer if you live your entire life in a covered aquarium with an enormous pile of it on the floor that you inhale with every breath. If this living situation doesn’t apply to you you could probably still get cancer if you decided to like snort large quantities of Talc several times a day. If you are a person like me who doesn’t do either of those things you will be just fine using Talc on your skin everyday and your baby will be fine as long as you put the Talc on their bottom and not their face…* I am not making any of this information up and I encourage you to research the facts on your own. If you don’t feel like researching and want to use a food product like corn starch on your body I would suggest buying it at the grocery story, it will save you quite a bit of money!

This is so perfect for baby powder (for men, so I’m not getting cervical cancer as a result of using it, as has been alleged, and as has resulted in J&J and all baby powder suppliers to switch from talc to cornstarch, which is … frankly sexist, because they could just write that it’s for men only, and include a surgeon general disclaimer for women, as the worst case scenario), better than cornstarch which is used in all of the other previously-talcum-powder cosmetic products for absorbing moisture — better because CORNSTARCH IS A FUNGI FEEDING FRENZY, it’s like bait for jock itch and athlete’s foot fungus, which makes cornstarch worse than using nothing at all, as cornstarch accelerates and invites fungal infections. I’ll let you know that, FIRSTHAND, because I learned it the hard way. Now I only purchase this and I put it directly in my baby powder pouf container, for my …non-public area…because I’m a man and my genitals don’t get cancer from talc, meaning I should be allowed to use talc for this purpose, despite the issues alleged (but not completely proven) about talc usage for women (and only women).

This talc is much finer, much lighter, and much whiter than other talc I have used. Not as dense as I expected, very light and fluffy, like corn starch. Natural talc I have used usually has a slight gray color. This stuff is white as snow.
