Q+A

Activated Charcoal Face Mask

A charcoal, kaolin and bentonite wash-off mask buffered with shea butter and argan oil, aimed at drawing out oil without stripping skin.

What stands out in the list

Worked out from the ingredients, not the packaging claims.

  • 1 declared fragrance allergen

    EU law requires these to be named on the pack: Benzyl Alcohol.

  • No drying alcohol

    No ethanol, alcohol denat. or isopropyl alcohol in the list. Fatty alcohols such as cetearyl alcohol are not drying and do not count.

  • Nothing flagged for pregnancy

    No ingredient on this list is one our encyclopaedia marks as avoided or used with caution in pregnancy. That is not the same as a clearance, so check with your midwife or doctor.
