This post talks about the many skin benefits that charcoal soap has and how to incorporate activated charcoal into your regular skincare regimen.

What Is Activated Charcoal?

Activated charcoal, also called activated carbon is obtained by burning natural materials such as wood, regular coal, peat or coconut husks. The source material is burned at a very high temperature to form a lightweight mass of carbonaceous charcoal. It means that all the oxygen was removed from source material through controlled oxidation and or processing by steam.

Thanks to this process, the charcoal expands creating a porous surface that traps toxins. From this point, we can refer to charcoal as “activated” charcoal. Its natural ability to absorb has been boosted this way. That’s why this fine black powder has a higher efficiency and its maximum usability for the body.

Charcoal Bar Soap Benefits

Takes Care of Oily Skin

Activated charcoal soap can pull the unwanted excess oils from your skin along with the dirt from the skin. This gives you an oil-free, smooth look.

Deep Cleans Your Skin

It works by absorbing oil, deep-seated debris and environmental pollutants to detoxify the skin, giving an amazing deep cleanse because toxins stick to the activated charcoal.

Help Reducing Acne

Soap with activated carbon will also adsorb toxins and remove skin impurities and oils on and below the skin. This way soap eliminates acne.

Reduces Pore Size

Throughout the day, dirt, toxins are settling over your pores making them more noticeable and enlarged in appearance. When your pores aren’t clear, neither is your complexion.
