Activated Charcoal Powder (Cosmetic Grade)

This activated charcoal powder, derived from coconut shells, is 100% natural. After the charcoal, particles are activated by high-temperature steam and once they undergo the process of washing, recovery, and drying, they are ground into a pure, porous powder.

Benefits:

• Activated Charcoal Powder is widely used as a topical body treatment that captures bodily toxins in its minuscule pores and eliminates them. 
• Through the process of adsorption, harmful elements bind themselves to the powder and thereby prevent toxins from being reabsorbed into the body.
• Activated Charcoal Powder is known for its natural deep cleansing and exfoliating properties, which allow it to gently remove dead cells. 
• A gentle yet effective cleanser for all skin types – especially for skin that is prone to acne – it is ideal for blackhead removal. 
• Furthermore, its anti-fungal, antibacterial, anti-viral, and anti-microbial activities along with its intensive moisturizing properties make it especially beneficial for use as a body deodorant and in soap making.
• By facilitating the body’s reparation of cellular damage, Activated Charcoal Powder effectively relieves the discomforts of rashes and helps to slow down the appearance of aging skin, thus promoting a rejuvenated appearance. 
• Used in hair care, Charcoal cleanses and absorbs excess oils without removing the naturally occurring essential hair oils. 
• Due to its ability to absorb moisture, it makes an ideal dehumidifier that simultaneously removes unpleasant room odors.
