If you're looking for a natural, effective and versatile ingredient for skincare products, Ellemental's activated charcoal is definitely a great choice! I've used it in my formulas for detoxifying masks, soaps, and products for combination and oily skin, and the results have been amazing!

I have used this product to make CP soap. It dissolves ok, no hard bubbles. It behaves well and the composition does not accelerate quickly. I would have liked it to have a smoother texture. I don't recommend for bath bombs, you risk badly staining the tub.

I got it recently and want to use it for making anti-acne soap. I read that it's a powerful detoxifier. It will give the soap a gray or black color.

Vegetable charcoal has a high adsorption capacity and is purifying and detoxifying. I use it in making a soap and mask to cleanse the skin of impurities, residues and excess sebum. I recommend.

I purchased the activated charcoal for 3 reasons: I needed a black pigment, but to be natural and with benefits and I am delighted with the result.

I bought the charcoal with the idea of using it to whiten my teeth and to cleanse my complexion of sebum, blackheads, etc. However, I didn't really know how to use it. I put it on my toothbrush with a little toothpaste and brushed daily for about 2 weeks. I can't say the effect was wow. Then I also used it in my weekly face masks. I didn't notice anything extra compared to the days when it wasn't added in the mask composition. I also added it in the cream made from the hair powders, maybe it degreased the hair slightly. It's OK but not necessarily super.

I used it to make the Charcoal soap (soap Charbon) according to the recipe on the Elemental website and it turned out great for cleansing the face. For people with dry skin, there is some feeling of skin tightness, but it is due to both the soap , and the water. The color was intense and , in addition to the black pigment, adds purifying properties to the products.
