Use Notes

Add Activated Charcoal to your soap making oils before adding your lye. Disperse thoroughly with a stick blender until it is fully mixed, then add your lye water. This will help achieve the darkest black.

Gel your soap! If you gel your soap if using activated charcoal your soap will turn very dark. Gelling is the secret to getting the blackest black with activated charcoal in cold process soaps.

Activated Charcoal

This AC blends smooth and works well in my CP soap. Not only does it give the soap a nice black color it has great skin properties too! I would purchase again.

Perfect!

This AC is SO much smoother and finely milled than others I've used! Blends like a dream!

Nurture Soap is the only place we trust!

This is a great Activated Charcoal

No issues with this. Great in MP soap bases.

Blackest black

Just used this for the first time. It blends easily into CP soap and gives a deep rich black. It does create grayish lather at 2 tsp PPO, but seems to be lessening as my soap cures.

Charcoal

The charcoal gives an amazing black color to my cold processed soap , and just amplifies the total quality of the soap by a lot , highly recommended for color mixing or just the benefits

I love this!

Works great. Easy to use.

Best charcoal around!

love it and it always blends so nicely

Best seller

One of my best seller I have returned costumers asking for it.

Versatile!!

I bought this thinking I would only use it for certain recipes to help cleanse the skin of oils and toxins. To my surprise I have used this in so many ways, to get a really good black, to help get different variations or colors for very distinct looks. It has been a great staple in my CP Soaps! I will have to order another one soon! Attached are just a few bars I have used activated charcoal in

Great black color in Melt & Pour

I'm pretty new to soap making and have only used this in a small melt & pour loaf thus far. I used it to color clear glycerin to create the triangular embeds in the photo below. I haven't tried the soap yet so I sure hope it doesn't bleed for my friends!

Blackest Charcoal there is

I loved how dark and black this charcoal turned out. No grey to it at all. It is the lowest black layer in this bar

Nice

Worked great in my cold processed soap. Color wasn’t pitch black but I was happy with it. I did 1tsp/lb

Does what it is suppose to :-)

Makes a great charcoal and tea tree oil soap :-)

Love Activated Charcoal

I use activated charcoal (AC) in a lot of my CP soaps. I have several different applications I use AC in. I have included three photos showing how I use. I have used it as the main color of the soap, in a pencil line, and as an accent color. The photo with AC as an accent color also has Trial by Fire next to the black and you can see the vibrancy of both the red and the black. AC works particular well in pencil lines because it is so fine that it works well in the colorant dusters I have. I highly recommend AC and I keep a very big supply of it on hand as I tend to use it in almost all my soap due to the contrast it gives me.

Activated Charcoal

Beautiful black color very easy to use love it

Love it

Wonderful to soap with

Great Charcoal

I really do love the AC from Nurture!! It behaves very well in both CP & MP soaps!

Excelente

Lo pedí para hacer mis primeros jabones de carbón activado y me funciono muy bn

The perfect black

I prefer using activated charcoal in my soaps instead of black oxide because I can still get that deep black without my soap bleeding all over the sink or tub. Its especially useful when using a fragrance that darkens with oxidation to make it even blacker.

Activated Charcoal

I’m very happy with my purchase of activated charcoal from Nuture Soap! Price is great, shipping is quick, and I love how the ac performs. The black is nice and dark in my soaps!

great to work with

This AC is really easy to work with. It's not too gritty and it doesn't fly eveywhere. It produces a nice, dark black when gelled.

perfect activated charcoal

I made my first ever batch of charcoal soap outside because of all the vids on how messy it was. It was totally unnecessary with this charcoal. It is super super fine and blends beautiful but didn't get anywhere else. I started using it inside and no mess at all. No lumps, blends very smoothly. Super easy to use in CP soap.

True black

Used this to get a deep black and it didn’t disappoint. One of the better charcoals I have tried.

Activated charcoal

Added to our goat milk soap, this charcoal makes a nice thick black soap before the pour and then turns into a gentle exfoliating facial & body soap with a nice light silver lather. We really like this charcoal!!

Activated Charcoal

One of my most favorite products. It give such intense color, with no brilliance to the soap. It is precious

Perfect & Like the price

Very competitive with pricing, and worked perfect!

First time soaper

This charcoal was amazing. I made my very first soap issuing in and got deep black where I wanted and grey in other areas when I mixed it. It was easy to use and can’t wait to use it on my next project!

Great Product

Just made a Cp soap with it and it came out wonderful. The goal was to make it look fall like and the charcoal really came through. (P.S. all the colors are from them as well) Absolutely love this company and the quality products they offer.
