Product Info:
Activated Charcoal is a highly porous and adsorptive ingredient derived from natural sources like coconut shells or wood. It effectively absorbs impurities, toxins, and excess oils, making it a key ingredient in skincare formulations targeting acne, detoxification, and deep cleansing. Commonly used in face masks, cleansers, soaps, and scrubs, it helps to purify the skin, reduce pore congestion, and improve overall complexion. It is also used in oral care products for natural teeth whitening.
