charcoal soap

Charcoal soap is soap containing activated charcoal, typically marketed for its purported ability to draw impurities from the skin.

The black bars became popular in skincare routines for treating acne and oily skin: I switched to charcoal soap and my face cleared up.

Whether charcoal actually absorbs toxins through skin remains debated.
