Charcoal
You’ve seen it in the movies… a protagonist poisoned by a villain… then saved by dissolving charcoal in water and pouring the mixture down the victim’s throat. Soon enough the poison comes out, and our hero is restored.
And nowadays, among the savvy… what happens when we or a family member feels we’ve eaten something wrong? The first thing we do is grab a charcoal pill. Activated charcoal can adsorb drugs like aspirin, cocaine, iodine, and penicillin, as well as inorganic substances like chlorine, lead, and mercury, rendering them harmless. Because of this, activated charcoal is used regularly in hospitals and by other health professionals. Essentially, activated charcoal will drink impurities from your skin.
Activated charcoal
attracts other substances to the surface and holds them there. What does that mean for our skin? Our skin allows absorption of bacteria, chemicals, gases, and liquids—good and bad—into our bodies. But when we use activated charcoal on our skin, especially in the form of a facial mask, it draws those poisons out of the body and into itself, cleansing you from the outside quite literally.
