I am currently soaking a block of terracotta/red clay in water. I keep putting my hand in to break it up. Its very messy ! I haven't had my hand in it for very long enough to tell but wondering/worrying if it would dye the skin after a while ?

Very fine pottery clays tend to get into the pores and dry the skin out a little. It doesn't stain but the particles are minute and can take a lot of water and scrubbing to wash away.
That's why it took alot just to wash my hand lol. Maybe regret this haha. Where I have dry skin on my hand from sewing/crotchet it has got into the skin there.
Fussy rubbish!!! Its has been a remedy for thousands of years, its supposed to get in your pores, cleans out all the toxins. Get covered and let it dry with a thin covering, then shower. Your skin will be free of any kind of dirt, black heads etc. Yep you will be dry, my g/f and I would then jump on an inflatable mattress and play with an entire bottle of Neutrogena sesame oil, do that for half an hour, have some sex, its fun while it gets soaked in. Towel off a little and your skin will be perfect.
Years ago some of the original messy producers would use a type of clay called Marl has anyone heard of it/used it as messy material? Sorry to hi-jack your thread. Cinq girl.
