If you thought that the only use of charcoal was for your barbecue, think again! Charcoal, or more precisely, activated charcoal is very effective in dealing with a number of skin-related issues.

It’s true: we’re suggesting you use black charcoal on your precious skin. But we’re giving you this advice for good reason, as more and more people are finding themselves thrilled with the results of adding activated charcoal to their beauty routine. This is how it works: because toxins stick to the activated charcoal, it makes a good deep cleanser and detoxifier. It’s all-natural and won’t add new chemicals to your skin when you use it.
