If you're looking for a way to pamper yourself, consider a charcoal face mask. These masks are made from activated charcoal, which has been used for centuries in traditional medicine to help draw out impurities and cleanse the skin. Today, it's also used in beauty products to help exfoliate and brighten the skin. Here are some of our top picks.

I love this brightening face mask/physical exfoliant. Sometimes face masks can be time consuming and inconvenient so I tend to put off using them but with this one it’s so convenient because I can use it while in the shower and it works really really well I’m happy i found this gem...It definitely rivals some of the other well known expensive charcoal masks (in jars). It is very minty on the skin though, just a warning if you have sensitive skin!
