This article explains what activated charcoal is, how it works, and its uses. Next, we explore its potential benefits for the skin and look at possible adverse effects. Finally, we explain how to use it in skin care.

According to studies, medical professionals indicate that activated charcoal may treat moderately severe to life threatening intoxication. Activated charcoal can bind to some toxic substances and prevent them from absorbing into the body.

Medical professionals may administer it as an internal treatment to counteract poisoning. However, it only works with certain toxins and may have health risks, so experts recommend that a poison control center advises.

Retailers sell various skin products, such as facial cleansers and soaps containing activated charcoal. Manufacturers claim these products may benefit the skin in several ways based on the general properties of activated charcoal.

A 2019 study suggested that an activated charcoal peel-off mask was able to enlarge the pores and enhance the cleansing of the skin by removing dead cells. Additionally, the pores reverted to their usual sizes within an hour of the treatment.

A 2021 study explored the effects of a 25% activated charcoal product on the skin of the hands. After treatment for 1 month, the researchers found that it could brighten dry skin on the hands and was not irritating.

Because studies on activated charcoal for skin are lacking, it is challenging to assess adverse effects or cautions when using it. However, the few studies available do not note any side effects when people apply it topically.

On the other hand, taking activated charcoal internally can cause side effects such as vomiting or more severe complications such as pulmonary aspiration. Therefore, it is vital that people only take it internally under medical supervision.

If someone notices a rash or irritation when using activated charcoal products, they need to discontinue using them. Additionally, it is important that people with sensitive skin or acne consult a dermatologist before using.

Activated charcoal has absorbent properties that make it useful for medical professionals to use in the emergency room for poisoning. However, there is little evidence to support its use as a skin care ingredient, and manufacturers base claims on its general detoxification properties.

If a person wants to try an activated charcoal product on their skin, it is usually safe to do so, but they need to discontinue using it if the product irritates. In addition, it is important not to take activated charcoal internally unless they receive guidance from a doctor.

Formulated without synthetic fragrance, parabens, silicones, phthalates, mineral oil, colorants, sulfates (SLS/SLES), PEG compounds, phenoxyethanol, coal tar, and other controversial ingredients that we believe can be toxic and unsafe for skin.

We believe that a complicated skincare routine is unnecessary and, in fact, more is not necessarily better in skincare. Combining multiple products can potentially inactivate or block penetration of each other and irritate the skin. We have shown through robust clinical studies that with Vitamin B Activated All-In-One Concentrate, extensive, multi-step skincare routine can be streamlined without compromising results.

Did you know? A good skin care routine can have multiple Step #2 (Correctors). For example, you may be using a vitamin C serum, an Eye Cream, and an exfoliant. These all fall into step #2 and can be done together.
