Activated Carbon in Body Care
Applications:
- Skin Care Products: Activated carbon is used in facial masks, scrubs, and cleansers due to its ability to adsorb impurities, toxins, and excess oil, helping to detoxify the skin.
- Hair Care Products: It can be found in shampoos and conditioners aimed at removing buildup from styling products and pollutants, promoting a healthier scalp and hair.
- Deodorants: Activated carbon is included in natural deodorants to neutralize odor-causing bacteria and absorb moisture.
- Oral Care: Used in toothpaste and whitening products, activated carbon helps remove stains and impurities from teeth while promoting oral health.
Characteristics:
- Adsorption Capacity: Activated carbon has a high surface area, allowing it to effectively trap toxins, pollutants, and odors.
- Natural and Non-Toxic: It is derived from natural sources, making it safe for use in body care applications.
- Microbial Filtration: Its porous structure can filter out harmful microorganisms, contributing to improved skin and oral hygiene.

Diatomaceous Earth in Body Care
Applications:
- Exfoliants: Diatomaceous earth is used in scrubs and exfoliating products due to its fine, abrasive texture, which helps remove dead skin cells.
- Face Masks: It acts as a thickening agent in clay masks, enhancing their texture while providing detoxifying benefits.
- Deodorants: Similar to activated carbon, diatomaceous earth is used in natural deodorants for its moisture-absorbing properties.
- Body Powders: It is an ingredient in talc-free body powders, providing a silky feel and helping to absorb sweat and moisture.
Characteristics:
- Absorbent Properties: Diatomaceous earth is highly absorbent, making it effective for oil and moisture control.
- Natural and Sustainable: Sourced from fossilized algae, it is a biodegradable and eco-friendly ingredient.
