How to use
Morning or night, massage a small amount into damp skin for about sixty seconds, then rinse warm and pat dry. It is concentrated, so a little goes a long way and one tube lasts weeks.
On mask days, always cleanse first. Clean, open pores let the Dead Sea Mud Rub pull deeper and work harder.
Who it is for
For oily, congested, dull, or sensitive-but-clogged skin. If blackheads keep coming back, and every charcoal wash you have tried left you tight and flaky, this one was formulated for you.
Gentle enough for daily use. Effective enough that you will see the difference in your pores.
Why charcoal, aloe and tea tree
One gram of activated coconut-shell charcoal holds about 3,000 square meters of surface area. It works like a chemical magnet, binding oil and impurities so they rinse away instead of being scrubbed off.
Most charcoal cleansers stop there, which is why they strip. Ours pairs it with organic aloe vera to soothe and tea tree oil to keep pores clear, so you get the deep clean without the squeaky finish.
What to expect
Skin feels clean, calm and soft from the first wash, never squeaky or stripped. Over two to three weeks of daily use, blackheads look smaller, congestion clears, and dull skin starts to look brighter.
An honest note: if your skin runs very dry, start once a day at night and follow with your moisturizer. Deep cleaning should never cost you your barrier.

Step 01, Cleanse
Drawn out, not scrubbed off.
Egyptian papyri recorded charcoal as medicine 3,500 years ago, and the reason still holds. One gram of activated charcoal carries about 3,000 square meters of surface area, a chemical magnet that binds oil, grime and buildup so they rinse away clean.
Then we did what the harsh drugstore washes never do. We balanced it with organic aloe vera and tea tree oil, so you get the deep clean without the tight, stripped feeling that gives charcoal a bad name. Gentle but effective, in sixty seconds a day.

The chemical magnet
Activated charcoal's porous structure gives one gram roughly 3,000 square meters of surface area, about the size of a football field. That surface binds oil and impurities through adsorption, so they rinse away without harsh detergents.
Documented adsorption science on activated charcoal
3,500 years on the record
Egyptian papyri recorded charcoal in wound care by 1500 BC, and Hippocrates prescribed it centuries later. In 1883, French chemist Gabriel Bertrand swallowed arsenic mixed with charcoal to prove its binding power. He lived.

Lather or texture shot
The texture
Squeaky clean, without the squeak.
A charcoal-grey gel that lathers soft and rinses completely, no film, no residue. Sixty seconds, morning and night.
Skin feels clean and calm afterward, never tight. If a cleanser leaves you squeaky, it took more than the dirt.
