Activated Charcoal Powder, Hardwood Derived, Food Grade, 1.2 Oz Glass Jar

I think this charcoal did the job I wanted it to do. I could feel I was having more tarter build up around my teeth and wasn't ready to go get my teeth cleaned. I also wanted to pull some of the coffee, red wine, and whiskey stains off my teeth. I do drink tons of water, but those three things seem to stain teeth so easily. I have tried bleach trays, strips, and etc. They always work just fine, but they make my teeth so sensitive that it isn't worth it. I also don't like putting that stuff on my teeth just for the yucky factor. I have also tried using coconut oil to rinse out your mouth. What is that called? Oil pulling?? Anyway, I gagged and again thought it wasn't worth it. So, I was left just trying to find whitening toothpaste that didn't leave my sensitive and buying lipsticks that didn't make my teeth look more yellow. I realize I could give up the things staining my teeth, but who are we kidding???!!!! Lol!! Enter in this charcoal product. I'm loving it. Yes, it is messy. Be oh so careful opening the tub EVERY SINGLE TIME. I highly recommend doing this after you get out of shower, while on a towel, leaning deep into the sink. Oh! And don't sneeze! If you follow those directions, you should be fine. I read up on "why charcoal". The whole premise behind it is it should bind to substances in your mouth and then you can rinse them away. I found this to be completely accurate. The charcoal stuck to the tarter and pulled it off my teeth, along with a bit of the stains. I found the first time I used it I had to scrub it off more around the bottom edges of my teeth were tarter builds up. The next 4 times I used it it didn't do that. The reason is my teeth were cleaner every time and less to bind to. I normally feel like I need to brush my teeth twice before I get all the coffee out of my mouth, but brushing with the charcoal makes my mouth feel so much cleaner. I have that after dentist clean feeling every time I use this stuff. I DO NOT think this stuff can substitute for a dentist or teeth cleaning, but I think when I sit in the chair there will be a lot less tarter to clean. Also, i think for what it does the price is great. I plan to make a charcoal face mask with it.

so gas. would recommend. my teeth are 1 shade lighter and very smooth !! forgot to take the before photo :/

I put it on a oven cooked brisket heavy and kosher salt and coarse pepper as much as possible. And it looks like a pit brisket. Try it. Let it rest. More it rest the better. And don't let it soak in the juices. Take outt loan for the beef.

I've never left a review on anything I've bought from Amazon but I had to for this because I love it! Ordered on the 26th of Dec. and received it in the mail packaged very securely on the 28th with Amazon Prime for students. Read a lot of reviews on various charcoal powders and how it is messy to open so I took the advice some reviewers left and opened it very carefully and then poked tiny holes in the foil covering. Powder immediately started coming out of the tiny holes, cool to watch, but definitely indicative of how potentially messy it would have been! I used it as a mask mixed with non-toxic glue and a few oils (rosehip, joboba and sweet almond). I made masks for me, my mom and my sister and it is best to apply it really thick so it'll be easier to take off. I applied my mom's somewhat thin and she had trouble taking it off easily. It definitely gets out all the dirt and pores and can take off facial hair which I don't mind (but be careful around edges and eyebrows). My skin felt SO soft after and smooth. As far as using it to brush your teeth, I've been using it for two days now and I have definitely noticed a difference especially after the fourth brush. Brushing can get messy so brush close to the sink and spit directly in it (but also keep some sink cleaner and a sponge on deck). It feels a bit weird at first and it tastes like...charcoal...but it works. Definitely have to wash your mouth out a lot afterwards, recommend rinsing with mouthwash too. Your teeth will look gray if you don't rinse out completely but once you do, you will see results after a few brushes. Get this one, especially if you are just getting into skin care and are interested in activated charcoal. For roughly one ounce this is a steal plus you can figure out if you like it instead of buying a 12oz jar for your first time using activated charcoal.

So, I gave Activated Charcoal Powder a shot, and it's been quite an interesting journey. Here's my personal take on this unique product: Pros: Pure Goodness: I appreciate that this charcoal powder is sourced from natural coconut shells and doesn't contain any nasty additives. It's reassuring to know that I'm using something pure and safe. Multifunctional: This stuff is like a Swiss Army knife in my wellness arsenal. I've used it for teeth whitening (it works surprisingly well), as a face mask ingredient, and even for an occasional detox (after consulting with my healthcare professional, of course). Its versatility is a huge plus. Teeth Whitening Magic: If you're looking for a natural teeth whitening solution, this powder has got you covered. It zaps away stains and leaves your pearly whites noticeably brighter in just a few uses. Cons: A Bit Messy: I won't sugarcoat it; working with charcoal powder can get a tad messy, especially when applying it for teeth whitening. But a little post-application cleanup isn't the end of the world. Texture Quirk: The fine powder can feel a bit gritty on your teeth and skin, which might not be everyone's cup of tea. In a nutshell, this Activated Charcoal Powder is like a natural wellness secret waiting to be uncovered. It's got some quirks, but the benefits, especially for teeth whitening and detoxing, make it well worth it. If you're into holistic wellness, this product is worth giving a shot.

First thing before opening put some holes so it will not explote everywhere. I did my cleaning with no problem at all and I does leave your teeth very clean. It's looking better I think.

Product is just what you would expect -- powdered charcoal. Seems great. The thing I love is the size/container. This is a perfect size and container for me to store this in a cabinet for when I need it. Jar offers good access, footprint is small enough to keep in a medicine cabinet, glass is durable and avoids plastic issues. I am glad I did not have to buy a huge container and then try to dose it into a small container like this size. Thank you for the convenience of this!

So far looks good. Definitely very fine ad mentioned in reviews which I expected. I can't speak to the digestive part but did use for toothpaste and it worked well. Only disappointed the jar is plastic not glass as mentioned in review and description. I'd like to detox and plastic is a toxin I'd rather not ingest but that's the world today. I will update after trying to make face mask and supplement. I'll just add to veggie capsules.
