I was browsing Aliexpress shortly after New Years and decided to buy the cheapest clays I could find. I was curious to see how well they compare to the other brands I use. To my surprise, most of these were actually very effective and easy to use. So if you don't mind long shipping times and a tiny bit of risk (eg one clay that came dried up) then Aliexpress is a great place for bargain craft supplies.

These are the Aliexpress shops I bought from but you can find the same clays from many sellers if you search "air dry clay". The prices often differ slightly as well but all of these are in the range of $1-3.
CAT CLAY
www.aliexpress...
Fluffy texture designed for cakes, cookies or bread
Medium elasticity
Easy to texture
Difficult to smooth with water. Tends to dissolve into a white paper fibre residue
MONSTER CLAY
www.aliexpress...
Not very elastic but surprisingly stable when pressed very flat
Easy to texture
Best all-rounder budget clay and good value for money for large packaging size
CHICKEN CLAY
www.aliexpress...
Extremely elastic, can be stretched into strings
Dries very quickly
Texture similar to foam rubber
Very difficult to texture
SMALL CLAY
www.aliexpress...
Very similar to monster clay but in smaller packaging
Slightly more elastic
Extremely good for making thin flower petals
One clay arrived completely dried up
MYSTERY CLAY (Very late to arrive, testing this one on TikTok)

Im very surprised that white cat clay came in cling wrap. That seems like someone already used it or broke the bag and decided cling wrap was a good idea to cover it in. But i also think the monster clay is the tougher brand of the cat clay.
I bough some slimes from Aliexpress last year and they were also packaged in the same way so I think it's not that unusual in China. Definitely cheaper and easier than factoring extra costs for a plastig bag. However it still didn't feel too nice as some of the clay liquid pooled on the plastic and felt pretty gross!
@@maqaroon That's super gross!, I remember seeing a review on Aliexpress of there being even mold in some of there slimes. I just hope that the factories making slimes and clays figure out a cheap way to make plastic baggies so they stay nice! (also thank you so much for the heart!, nearly had a heart attack when i saw it😅.)
@@strawbxrry.winter2774 the gross part is you dont know what that liquid could be, it can not be from the clay. I would be concerned because the liquid could be toxic! I just want to make sure that no one else has that happen to them with the clay. You really dont know what they put in the clays...
hi
@@saltyplanet9519 why hello there, i see your apart of SALT culture.
I know this is pretty random but I was having chest pains and took medicine and watching your video helped me calm down from the pain ☺️
Aww I’m glad to hear that and hope you feel better soon 💕
I hope you get well soon
Get well soon 💕
Sorry to hear that I hope you get better soon and your comment is so nice I love it soz it sounds wierd but I do😅😃👍👍👍😂
Ummm are you okay?
chicken clay seems really interesting, especially the stretchy part! but i agree, monster clay does seem well rounded for all crafts! and the macaroons you made turned out so cute 😭😭💕💕
THE MACARONS ARE SO CUTE! Joanna: Macaron master
Ikr she doesn’t need expensive clay!
100th like XD
“For company bread” really got me
Her: Even though I can speak Chinese I can’t read it.
Sameee.... I can read like max 200 characters? I get lost over seas so much that I always need my cousins to go anywhere.
Same, my parents made me go to Chinese school when I was younger but I forgot almost everything I learned back then 🙈
Same lol
My brother grew up in china ^^
@@maqaroon I know I am late but me too
You’re amazing! I am always shocked at how you can literally craft anything.
Here’s a little rhyme I made: 😊
Put any clay in Joanna’s hands,
Watch how perfectly each beautiful piece lands.
I know it’s short, but I tried my best to show my appreciation for her! Love you Joanna! 💛
I think the clay you showed at 5:18 is a Japanese brand sold in a Korean market because not a lot of Japanese clays I've seen at stores in Japan has just Japanese, English, and Korean on the packaging. If there is a Korean translation, there usually is a Chinese translation too.
Aaahh thank you!
That's true!.
I suspect that it could maybe be a simmilair situation as here in scandinavia. Very many products you buy have both norweigan, finnish, swedish and danish translations on them since they are sold in all those countries.
I’ve been watching your videos for such a long time, even before the pokemon clay flower pot you made! I love your channel so much, it makes me very happy.
Aww thank you!! I love hearing from subscribers from way back.
Your videos are so nice and relaxing and the quality is always amazing. I get really happy when I see you post. ❤️❤️
The finished macarons kinda look like they were made out of cake because of how puffy the shells looked. 😋
Omg, these look so good, considering how cheap they were it must have been hard to do it!
Ahh so happy to see this!! The last two weeks I've been watching all of your clay videos again (for the 4th of 5th time some of them!) I'm getting back into clay creations and was debating the tubs you once reviewed from Bangood
Your voice makes me so happy ☺️
I love your videos so much
You are so good with clay!! Everything you make turns out so cute!!😊😊
wow I wanted to buy clay yesterday but I didn’t, now I know which is best so I can!
I love these so much! They would be adorable as earrings.
You always put so much effort into these and they are so calming to watch 💕
U make stuffs so wellll
Plz keep uploading ❤️
Early again for more of your amazing videos!
(Try sewing or needle felt videos)
WOW THE MONSTER CLAY WORKED SOO WELL WITH THE FLOWE RPETAL TEST!!!
Awww the dinosaur and cat bags were so cute 🥺
The parts where you showed the texture of the clays were so satisfying, I could watch clay mixing and playing all day
I usually refer to those types of cheap, random brand clay as "local/domestic (air dry) clay". I always use local clay for all of my crafts, they are cheap and widely available where I live. They can be crafted into keychains or anime figures pretty well. I just need to find the right manufacturer. But it seems like most of the time, only Asian countries have these types. I had a hard time buying these clay in the US. There's only Model Magic and they are a bit too soft and chewy for my liking :'(
Your the best art-craft youtuber in my opinion ❤️💜✨
OMG YAY FIRST BTW ILYSM AND HOPE U REACH BILLIONS, SEE YOU THERE!! ❤🧡💛💚💙💜

You have a very relaxing voice and I love your videos! :)
97 comments whattt!!!
Fun fact
You're an amazing person and you matter 💘🍓
Her videos always help me calm down.
That chicken clay btw is not clay it is a dough that makes a foam rubber when dry. I had to buy some for an art class and we learned about it in that.
Yep, in spanish its known as "foamy moldeable" which could trasnlate to "mouldeable foam" or something like that. I've got a bag of that stuff in light purple.
Lol I love how we are all saying first because it didn’t load the comments haha
Lol so, so true.
@@rubberdorkie6910 waaaaaaaaaay to true, we have like 100 people saying their first lol
She - uses all the clays 😂❤️
Me - I thought that there was only daiso and air dry clay 😭😂😂😂❤️❤️.
Love you ❤️❤️Lots of support ❤️❤️❤️
I would love to be you. I love crafting, but just can't find materials in here, you are in heaven, with all the clay, slime stuffs, and all. Your life is oddly satisfying! 😆😋
I love your videos! Your voice is so pleasant to listen too!
I've used chicken clay before. It wasn't the same brand, but everything else was exactly the same. Back then, i didn't know it was meant for sculpting shapes and crafts, so i just played with it like playdough or slime. It does wicklund and is very light. I used to add water to it if i accidentally left it out, but there were always dry lumps in it. Very fun to play with but dries out of you don't seal it.
Just ordered the cat clay, I teach at a daycare and feel like that clay would be best for kids to use since it looks easy to use and fun to play with
Hey Joanna, I am a big fan and always watch your video! I have tried a couple of your tutorials and it was successful and I absolutely love It! Hope you have a wonderful day! 👍🐥
I love these because I have been using clay with my sister!
I have used the Monster Clay it is actually a Paper Clay and I loved using them . It makes the best clay flowers . I had three of them and once after using them I accidentally left it's package open so when I took it the next time it was dried 😭😭😭😭😭 .I really loved using that Monster Clay (Paper Clay) .😁😁😁😁😁😁
Jo Anna I absolutely love these clay reviews vids!!!
I used the same chicken clay for a school project, and when i put acrylic paint in it, it became super firm. So the regular clay actually took a while to dry for me but the colored one was faster. idk if the same thing happened with this one, just a thought :)
I love your content! All of your DIY's Are Amazing! 🤩
Also can you do how to make a squishy with stuff you can find I n your house? 😁😁
and my birthday is in 2 weeks
Nice review
Why is the packaging for the clay so frickin CUTE?!?!
i used to watch u all the time when i was younger but i always forgot your name so id have to search clay reviews and scroll down till i found ur vid xD
The macarons look like they’re from a bakery.......😋
If I didn’t know they were made from clay I probably would have eaten them 😂😂
Can you do this again but as an add in for butter slime? Like which one mixes best, the differences, etc

@@nadiaalibaig 38 :
Keep up the good work! I love it
Your voice is so calming
so, ur a clay macaron professional and also a clay professional ? _weow_
Wow I had no idea they didn't get paid until we marked the order ‼️‼️
Hi first minute of commenting love your great work have a nice day!!
The trick to ordering on Ali is to always choose the Standard Shipping. Things usually arrive to me in two weeks, three at most. It’s usually free but sometimes costs a few dollars, worth it imo
Yep! I’ve literally never had a package get lost with standard shipping. I actually like the longer shipping time because I sometimes forget what I ordered so getting packages is like a surprise 🤣
Love u and ur vids-u make us all so happy ❤️
I'd love to see you try these Clays in slime!
This is very interesting acctually noice😌👌🏻
Wow the clay i have is harf not soft, that looks so satisfying and reminds me of gum or candy floss
Cooky & Koya......🤗💜️
Hi ❤️ nice video actually the chicken clay is known as fomic clay😀
Yaaaay ❤️❤️❤️
Oml i used to watch you three years ago... why is youtube recomending this to me now hahahha
Yes she posted!
cat and monster clay are for slime. they are used to make clay slime
I have a suggestion for a dry clay u really have to try. U can buy it at tedi. It's a stack of colorful clays that costs 2 euros. I tried it and was really surprised of the quality.
those clay packets tough-]
sooooo cute!
*though
can't spell-
@@acelittlefire Ne diyon dayı
OMG I REMEMBER I USED TO WATCH YOU WHEN I WAS 9 LMAO
So cute macaroons
I thought those macarons in the thumbnail were real😝😂
I'm wondering.. Could the super fast drying clay(s) be good for making those clay cracking/snapping/crunching videos?
Woah is this what early squad feels like lol. (Ps love the vid ❤️)
"For company bread"
*genius*
hello i love your videos and they make so happy!
I made the baking soda cLAY and wondering how long it takes for it to dry fully and if u can put it i the oven. I hope you can help Maqaroon!
hi
You have heard elf on the shelf.....
Now, Introducing.....
Maqaroon making Macaron
UwU yes
Love your channel!
loved the vid! :D
Hi maqaroon! I love your videos and they are all so cute and easy projects that keep me entertained! I just have one request for a plushie tutorial though, can you please do a tutorial of a hamster plush from a fuzzy sock? I think it would be so cute!
Please and thank you 🤍✨
This this is great ❤👍👏
So I'm curious of what ur thoughts would be on honey clay from donerland and I clay from Amos I use them and really like both. It's kinda like to the chicken clay. But it's different so u might like it not sure
Some of that clay looks so nice I want to eat it-
what do you think about testing compound king's clear clay? it's literally completely transparent clay
Can you link the korean crafting videos you were referring to
I love your Chanel and video. Its souw caming and Nice.
Thanks for the tips!
Could you make so more fluffy sock pushie videos i really like those ones. Love you vids. Have a nice day... or night.
I wonder how well these clays would work in slime.
What kind of camera do you use to film on? And what is the thing you use to make the camera able to stand up like that to film?
I'm not sure if u still do slime video but if u do tedi sells large bottles (1l I think) of clear glue for 5 euros. It's slimabill xD
I really love you're Video
can you please do a skzoo diy video!!! They're similar to BT21 and represent each member of stray kids! It would be super helpful and cool!!
I was ready to throw up when I used Model MAgic
Your voice is so relaxig
PLEASE MAKE A BUGSNAX PLUSH!!!
AMAZING😲😲😲😲😲😲😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
Tbh im not surprised that one package had korean and japanese. People often travel between the countries for business and vacations and stuff. So its not the most uncommon for products to have both especially if its something popular in both countries. Like i know a lot of art supplies and beauty supplies are that way. I have a tube of korean toothpaste that has both on it yknow :0
But tiqtok is banned where I live so I can't watch the last clay can u post it on instagram?????
You should make a flower out of all the clay you've ever tried
great idea !!
I love have you hearted every comment
I have theses they are so much fun!!
Hi joanna, I think I have a theory about why one of the small clays dried up. if it was air-dry clay, I think some air got into the bag causing it to dry up if it wasn't then IDK. 👁👄👁
