What Are The Skincare Benefits Of Activated Charcoal?

Activated charcoal pulls out toxins and other impurities from your skin to leave it extra-clean. Activated charcoal’s porous surface may help bind odors which is why you often see it in foot care and deodorant products. 

Activated charcoal looks like a fine black powder. It’s typically made from more natural food sources like coconut shells and olive pits or other, nonfood things like petroleum coke, peat, sawdust, bone char, and coal. We source, sell and use coconut derived activated charcoal. 

Charcoal becomes “activated” when it’s processed at super high temperatures that modify its form, making its pores smaller and surface area larger.
