Qian: Hi! Hmm, I’m stumped here cos a bit hard for me to comment in terms of comparison since I don’t use loose powder from other brands at the moment. The last one I used was years ago and I cannot remember now.

miyo: You’re welcome! Glad you found some of the info useful. Don’t worry about asking…just that sometimes I can’t get to reply as quickly. About supplements to regulate hormones, ah no, I’m not familiar but if you’re talking about helping with PMS, then I heard evening primrose oil is good. But I haven’t taken this. For me, I take milk on a regular basis. I find it helps to reduce PMS symptoms. In fact, I got an article written sometime ago. It’s here if you want to check it.

Miyo: Hey, no worries. I’ve got such a potent anti-spam plugin it sometimes catches my own comments as spam!

I understand some ladies at Flowerpod forum get their clays from this source: yours-essentially.blogspot.com. They carry the clays you’ve indicated. Perhaps you can also raise your concern about kaolin clay with them. They’re probably more knowledgeable about these stuff.
