Frequently Asked Question About Charcoal Face Mask 

How To Apply A Charcoal Face Mask & The Types Available?

In recent years, the skincare industry has become more aware of the beneficial properties of activated charcoal. It has grown into a hugely popular component of many people's skincare routines. You will find charcoal in a range of products, including cleansers, soaps and exfoliators. Face masks are an often-overlooked skincare addition that can unlock the full potential of activated charcoal.

Applying a face mask is a powerful way to allow your skin to absorb the cleansing and healing properties of the active ingredients. Charcoal face masks can treat and prevent facial issues such as acne and blackheads. This article will look at why charcoal face masks are a great option for your skincare routine and walk you through the dos and don'ts of using a charcoal face mask.

Is a charcoal face mask the right choice for you?

The main benefit of activated charcoal is that it is highly absorbent. When applied to the face, charcoal is extremely effective at drawing chemicals and toxins out of the skin. The people who will see the greatest benefit from charcoal face masks are those with oily skin. If you have dehydrated skin and use charcoal masks frequently, you may find that a charcoal face mask causes your skin to dry out as the activated charcoal absorbs moisture.

The key benefits of charcoal are as follows:

  • It can help improve acne
  • It can remove impurities to restore that all-important chemical balance
  • It clears dirt off the skin
  • It unclogs pores to avoid blackheads

Charcoal offers a deep cleanse for your skin and is even known to soothe insect bites and skin irritations, as it is capable of drawing out toxins and reducing swelling.

How to apply a charcoal face mask? 

In order to get the most out of a charcoal face mask, it's important to follow the correct procedures when applying it. Here are the steps you should follow to do it right:

  • Cleanse your skin before use. Cleansing first will remove oil and dirt from the skin's surface that would otherwise act as a barrier between the face mask and your skin, reducing its effectiveness. It also helps to open your pores, so you get maximum results from a charcoal mask.
  • Apply the face mask evenly over your entire face. Ensure you use gentle, circular motions with your hands or a soft brush. Avoid applying it too close to your eyes and lips.
  • Leave the face mask on for the length of time recommended in the instructions. Usually, you should leave a face mask on for seven to ten minutes. Don't leave it for longer, as it will begin to draw moisture from your skin.
  • Rinse off the mask gently using warm water.
  • Dry your face with a clean, soft towel. Don't rub the towel on your skin - you should simply press it against your face to dry it.
  • Apply a moisturiser that will not clog your pores. A moisturiser will prevent your skin from becoming dry after using a charcoal mask.

How often should you apply a charcoal face mask?

For most people, applying a charcoal face mask twice a week will be plenty to keep issues with oil and impurities under control. If you have particularly oily skin, it may be necessary to use it a maximum of 3-4 times per week.

Is a charcoal face mask good for you?

As long as you follow the right processes and avoid common mistakes, charcoal face masks are good for many people. However, everyone's skin is different, so that it won't be right for every skin type. We recommend avoiding using charcoal masks frequently if you have dry skin. You should also be careful not to use charcoal masks too often if you have sensitive skin.

Do charcoal face masks stain clothes?

If you get the activated charcoal on your clothes, it can leave a stain. However, there are plenty of guides online to help minimise that stain or even eliminate it.

Are charcoal face masks supposed to burn?

No - if you feel a burning or other irritation on your skin, then remove the face mask and don't use it again. Consult a skin care specialist to find an alternative that will work for you.

What results do charcoal peel-off masks produce?

By removing the outermost layer of skin and hair from your face, charcoal peel-off masks leave a layer of healthy, fresh skin. They also pull dirt and toxins from deep within your pores so that your skin looks soft and smooth.
