DIY Activated Charcoal Face Mask for Blackheads, Acne & More

DIY activated charcoal face mask for blackheads, acne & more. Do this mask weekly!

What you Need

  • 1 activated charcoal capsule (where to get it)
  • 1-2 tsp aloe vera gel (where to get it)
  • 1 drop tea tree oil (where to get it)
  • Small bowl & spoon for mixing
  • Face mask applicator brush (where to get it)

Directions

  1. Into a small bowl, empty the contents of one activated charcoal capsule.
  2. Now add 1-2 tsp of aloe vera gel. Don’t add a lot but just enough to create a spreadable paste.
  3. Stir in a drop of tea tree essential oil. One drop is actually enough (tea tree oil can give burning sensations) but you can add up to 2 drops if your skin isn’t that sensitive.
  4. Mix everything up with clean fingers or the face mask applicator brush.
  5. Apply gently all over your face, avoiding the areas around your eyes and mouth.
  6. Let it sit on your face for about 5 minutes or until it dries up.
  7. Rinse off with warm water until all of the mask is off then splash your face with cold water to seal pores.
  8. Pat dry then tone and moisturize. The best moisturizer you can use for acne prone skin is shea butter. Just get a little less than a pea-sized amount and apply all over your face.

That’s it! An amazing yet very easy DIY activated charcoal face mask! Use it just once a week to clear out your pores, get rid of blackheads, fight acne and heal any blemishes/acne scars!
