Activated Charcoal Deep Cleansing Mask
Category: Cleanse & Treat
A purifying, multi-action mask that deeply cleanses, detoxifies, and revitalises the skin using a potent blend of natural botanicals, oils, and healing essences—perfect for those seeking a fresh, clear complexion with a holistic, sensory experience.
Key Benefits
- Deep cleanses and detoxifies — activated charcoal draws out bacteria, dirt, and toxins buried deep within the skin
- Minimises pores — leaves skin visibly smoother and more refined after just one use
- Brightens and revitalises — papaya glycerol extract provides natural enzymatic exfoliation for a fresher, more radiant complexion
- Nourishes while it cleanses — sweet almond oil and cocoa butter prevent dryness and maintain moisture balance
- Soothes and calms — arnica tincture and lavender essential oil reduce redness and calm irritation
- Suitable for all skin types — including sensitive skin
Key Ingredients
- Activated Charcoal - The star ingredient. Tiny pores within the charcoal act as a magnet, trapping and drawing out impurities, excess oil, and toxins that daily cleansing leaves behind.
- Homeopathic Tissue Salts - Developed by Dr. Wilhelm Heinrich Schuessler in 19th century Germany, tissue salts are 12 minerals that the body needs to repair and maintain itself. The specific tissue salts in this mask act as a natural skin cleanser and support moisture balance — an ingredient you won't find in any other skincare brand.
- Papaya Glycerol Extract - A natural source of papain enzyme, which gently dissolves dead skin cells without physical abrasion. The result is brighter, fresher skin with a more even tone.
If you have oily, combination, or congested skin—or simply want to draw out impurities, minimise pores, and restore your skin’s natural glow—this mask is for you. Eco-conscious and wellness-oriented buyers who value cruelty-free, vegan, and emotionally uplifting products (such as those enriched with Bach flower essences) will also love this mask.
