If you want to stay dry which is usually the reason to use talc powder, try using common baking powder. Kaolin clay is used in making porcelin and as far as is known, there are no extraordinary benefits to using this rather expensive clay. The biggest problem with talc is that it can produce adverse health problem in women who use it to cover odor problems in the private areas. Talc is a rock so the problems become evident when you think about it. Baking powder can be scented naturally if you do not like the smell or one can use perfumes on top of the powder. Read the ingredient list of commercial products because most "talcum powders" today no longer have talc in them.
