CHARCOAL POWDER

Charcoal Powder in this cosmetic-grade form is produced by pyrolyzing bamboo at high temperatures (800–1000°C) followed by steam activation, which creates an extraordinarily porous microstructure with a surface area exceeding 300–500 m²/g — giving it exceptional capacity to adsorb sebum, toxins, and surface debris from skin. The micronized particle size (<45 µm) ensures smooth skin feel and even dispersion in rinse-off formats such as cleansers, masks, and scrubs, while minimizing grittiness that coarser grades can impart. Formulators favor bamboo-derived activated charcoal over coal-derived alternatives for its renewable feedstock, cleaner sustainability narrative, and compatibility with natural and clean-beauty positioning.
