HerbtoniQ Activated Bamboo Charcoal Powder for Face Pack & Hair Pack – 400 g (Pack of 2 × 200 g)

HerbtoniQ activated charcoal powder is made from bamboo and ground to an ultra-fine, jet-black dust. It is the ingredient behind every black peel-off and mud mask on the shelf – here in its plain form, so you can add just a pinch to your own clay and decide how strong your charcoal mask should be.

Key Benefits

• Helps draw dirt, dust and excess oil to the surface for easier cleansing.
• Gives clay masks a deeper cleansing feel.
• Leaves skin feeling fresh, clean and smooth after rinsing.
• Helps cleanse the scalp and hair of oil and product build-up.
• A little goes a long way, so 400 g lasts a long time.

What’s Inside

2 jars, 400 g in total:

• 2 × Activated Bamboo Charcoal Powder (200 g) – a single-ingredient powder. Activated charcoal is extremely porous, giving each tiny particle a large surface that clings to oil and grime.

How to Use

1. Patch test the mixed mask on your inner arm 24 hours before first use.
2. Mix a pinch of charcoal with 1 teaspoon of clay (kaolin, bentonite or multani mitti) and rose water or plain water to a smooth paste. Use a non-metal bowl with bentonite.
3. Apply on a clean face and neck, avoiding the eye and lip area.
4. Leave for 8–12 minutes and rinse with lukewarm water before it dries fully; moisturise afterwards.
5. For hair, add a pinch to a clay hair pack, apply to scalp and hair for 15–20 minutes and rinse well. Mix over a sink, as charcoal can stain fabric.

Who Is It For

Suitable for all skin types and for men and women; oily, combination and city-stressed skin will notice the clean feeling most. It is also handy for DIY soap and mask makers who need plain charcoal.

Why HerbtoniQ

HerbtoniQ supplies bamboo charcoal as a pure, single-ingredient powder, ultra-fine so it disperses evenly in clay. It is packed dry in jars and hygienically packed in India.
