Coconut Activated Charcoal – Powder – 4oz

Activated charcoal is made by heating coconut shells to very high temperatures, which creates a fine, porous black powder. It is a popular ingredient in homemade face masks and cleansers, where it helps draw dirt and oil from the skin’s surface, and is also used in baking and cooking as a natural black coloring.

Ingredients: Activated charcoal from organic coconut shells

Size: 4 oz.

Suggested use: For a face mask: mix ½ teaspoon with water, aloe, or clay to form a paste, apply to clean skin, let dry for 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. For food coloring: add a small amount to doughs, batters, or drinks until the desired color is reached.
