What is Pumice Stone?
Pumice Stone is formed from volcanic lava that cools quickly, trapping gas bubbles and creating a porous, lightweight rock. Its natural texture makes it ideal for physically removing dead skin cells without harsh chemicals.
Where does Pumice Stone come from?
Pumice Stone is mined from volcanic regions around the world, including Italy, Greece, Turkey, and the United States. The stones are naturally lightweight and porous, created when lava cools and gas escapes during volcanic eruptions.
