This is a special kind of charcoal that has been treated by oxygen to open up the millions of tiny pores between the carbon atoms. This process of "activating" gives way to a fine, black, odorless and tasteless powerful detoxifying powder.The finer the particle size of an activated carbon, the better the access to the surface area and the faster the rate of adsorption kinetics. Whoa! this is amazing! Imagine a gram of activated carbon has the surface area of about 500 square meters. That's about one tenth the size of a football field.
What happens if you load over one gram of activated charcoal to a soap batch? Yes, it will turn out jet-black with super detoxifying powers. The micro-porous activated charcoal powder will act like little magnets to gently lift excess facial oil, deep-seated pore cloggers and toxins. Pure clean, squeaky clean goodness!
