How to Use Charcoal Soap the Right Way

How to Use Charcoal Soap Without Overdoing It

Charcoal soap is popular for a reason. It gives a deep, fresh clean. But like most good things, it works best when you don't overdo it. Here's how to use it.

What Charcoal Does

Activated charcoal is very porous, which means it has lots of tiny spaces. In soap, it helps lift away oil and dirt from your skin.

Our Charcoal Soap

Our Clarity Charcoal & Sea Moss Facial Soap is made for your face. Like all our facial soaps, it has extra shea butter, coconut milk and sea moss. That means you get a deep clean without the tight, stripped feeling.

Who It's Best For

  • Oily skin.
  • Skin that gets clogged pores.
  • People who live in hot weather or sweat a lot.

How Often to Use It

  • Oily skin: once or twice a day.
  • Combination skin: once a day, or just on oily areas.
  • Dry or sensitive skin: a few times a week, or try a gentler bar like our Rose Clay & Sea Moss.

How to Use It

  1. Wet your face with warm water.
  2. Lather the bar in your hands.
  3. Gently massage the lather on your face for about 30 seconds.
  4. Rinse well and pat dry.
  5. Moisturize.

Signs You're Overdoing It

If your face feels tight, flaky or red, use it less often.

Our Tip

Don't scrub hard. Let the soap do the work. Gentle is always better for your face.
