Activated charcoal is an unscented powder made by exposing normal charcoal to a high heat, making it porous and highly absorbent. This means it is commonly used to absorb and draw out toxins, both internally and topically. Its use in skincare products is designed to help draw out bacteria, toxics and sebum from the skin, making it great for oily, congested and acne-prone skin.
