Detoxifying Charcoal Face Wash by Himalaya
City life, dust, makeup and a long day: by the end of it, you just want a clean face. This charcoal face wash by Himalaya is a 150 ml gel with charcoal powder from coconut shells and green tea extract. It lathers lightly, is suitable for all skin types and can be used morning and evening.
Why charcoal in a face wash?
Charcoal powder has a huge surface area full of tiny cavities. This means that dirt and sebum (the skin oil your skin produces itself) easily stick to it. When washing, you spread the powder over your skin, and when you rinse it off, it goes down the drain along with the dirt. What many people don't know: the name Detoxifying refers to that cleansing idea, not to removing toxins from your body. In practice, it simply means that this charcoal face wash thoroughly cleanses your skin.
Green tea and the rest of the formula
In addition to charcoal, the gel contains an extract of tea leaves (Camellia sinensis), the same plant that green tea is made from. The cleansing agents are ammonium lauryl sulfate and cocamidopropyl betaine, a mild cleanser from coconut oil that is often found in facial products. Glycerin retains moisture, so your skin doesn't feel tight after rinsing. Carbomer makes it a firm gel. Good to know: it contains fragrance, with limonene, linalool and hexyl cinnamal.
How to get the most out of this face wash
You only need a little. Wet your face and neck, squeeze a small amount of gel into your hand and massage in circular motions until a lather forms. Then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat your skin dry. Keep the gel out of your eyes, as it stings. Many people wonder if you can use a charcoal cleanser every day. Himalaya recommends twice a day, so yes, it is intended for daily use.
In short: a black gel with coconut charcoal and green tea, for anyone who just wants their face properly clean at the end of the day. According to Himalaya, the tube is fully recyclable.

What exactly does charcoal powder do in a face wash?
