Your Skin, Just Smoother.
AHA, BHA & PHA exfoliate away dull surface buildup while clay helps absorb excess oil for smoother, more refined-looking skin.
Smoother, calmer-looking skin — in the time it takes to brew coffee.
One twist, one glide, ten minutes to breathe. PlainBeauty was built for the person who wants a real exfoliation step without the bowl, the brush, or the counter-top clean-up. The clay glides on satin-smooth, the acids do quiet work, and you rinse away with skin that reads softer, fresher, and a little more polished.

Straightforward answers before you buy.
What skin types is the Clay Stick suitable for?
It's designed for normal, oily and combination skin, and for anyone wanting to improve the appearance of rough texture, dullness, or clogged-looking pores. If your skin is sensitive or reactive, patch test on your inner arm for 24 hours first and start with once-a-week use.
How often should I use it?
2-3 times a week is a good starting rhythm for most people. If your skin is on the sensitive side, begin at once a week and adjust up gradually as your skin tolerates it.
Where in my routine does it go?
After cleansing, on dry skin. Glide a thin layer across your face avoiding the eyes and lips, leave on for 8-10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and follow with your serum and moisturizer.
Can I use it with other exfoliating actives?
To avoid over-exfoliating, we recommend not layering it on the same day as other AHA/BHA/retinoid products. Space them across different days and always finish with a moisturizer and a broad-spectrum SPF in the morning.
Is it safe to use while pregnant or breastfeeding?
We recommend checking with your doctor or a licensed healthcare professional before adding any exfoliating skincare during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Do I need to wear SPF the day I use it?
Yes — exfoliating acids can make your skin more sensitive to the sun. Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every morning and reapply through the day.
How long will one stick last?
With 2-3 uses a week and a thin, even application, one 40 G stick typically lasts several months. Replace the cap after each use to keep the formula fresh.
Is it tested on animals?
PlainBeauty products are not tested on animals.
