Benefits of Activated Charcoal

I had been making use of activated charcoal as a mask but it was always in conjunction with other herbs such as camwood, turmeric and mixed with honey.

A few days back, I tried it with water alone and I loved it on my skin.

It dried and sucked up all the oil and the smooth feel of my face afterwards can only be experienced.

Activated charcoal also fades dark spots. Ensure to alternate mixing with water and oil or honey in order not to dry out your skin.

I used stabilized aloe vera gel as my moisturiser and woke up to the same smoothness.

Always tone and moisturise after washing off a mask.

Who has tried using activated charcoal as a mask or as one of the ingredients in a mask?
