This tutorial shows you how to make your own DIY coal or charcoal face scrub which is somewhat identical to the very famous LUSH Coalface.
What you will need:
1/2 cup of Coconut oil
1 1/2 teaspoons of Activated Charcoal powder
1 tbs of Baking powder
Mix all the ingredients together to form a thick paste. Add a little extra coconut oil if your mix is too dry and crumbly, if it is too wet add more Baking soda.
If you are using this as a Detox mask leave it on for 15-20 mins before rinsing with warm water.
If you are using it as a wash then use a small amount of product in the palm of your hand and mix with hot running water. Rub on to face and then rinse.
Lush is a cosmetics giant with some interesting LUSH facts – One of Lush’s 6 co-founders, Mo Constantine, apparently invented the world’s first bath bomb in 1989. Lush has been questioned of its overuse of glitter, which is now very unpopular with environmental groups but did you know the glitter used in Lush products are PET free – They state that they use food grade lustres and seaweed-based glitters.
There are 900 stores worldwide in 49 countries, 250 of which are in the USA, that is a lot of product to be made. Did you know all their products are handmade in Poole England? Their products are 100% vegetarian, 85% vegan, against animal testing and completely handmade.
Lush are also pretty strict on their copyright rules, so make sure if you are making your own lush copies or hacks be sure to choose an original name and add a little touch of your own to make them unique.
please make sure you specify that it is baking soda and not powder! baking powder is not good for skin
