Overview
Herbs Botanica Activated Charcoal Powder is a 2 ounce, 100 percent food grade bamboo charcoal powder meant for baking, soap making, face masks and other DIY skincare projects.
This is sold under a Vitamins & Supplements listing for Activated Charcoal, but the title and description point to a craft and skincare powder, for baking, soap making and DIY face masks, rather than an encapsulated supplement to take by mouth. Shoppers looking for a charcoal capsule should look elsewhere.
- 2 ounce bamboo charcoal powder
- 100 percent food grade
- Suited to baking, soap and skincare
- Powder form for DIY mixing
Who it's for
DIY skincare makers, soap makers and bakers who want a fine, food grade charcoal powder to mix into their own projects. It does not suit anyone looking for a pre-dosed charcoal capsule or tablet.
