Bamboo carbon is dubbed the "black diamond" for its powerful natural beneficial properties.
This is one of East Asia's best-kept secrets. A remarkable raw ingredient, bamboo carbon is dubbed the "black diamond" by the Japanese for its powerful natural beneficial properties.
So just how powerful IS the black diamond?
Imagine this: a single gram of bamboo carbon packs an incredibly absorptive punch - a porous surface area equivalent to 3 tennis courts!
Imagine the purifying power of each of these tiny sponge-like vessels - millions of them - actively soaking up and fighting surrounding bacteria, odor, oils, and other impurities with all their might. Now that's superior cleansing fit for a hero.
So, hang on a minute. You ask: If bamboo carbon's so good, what's my soap got that's been cleaning up the nasties on my body? Well, one of those chemicals may be triclocarban, which cleans your skin by killing bacteria and fungi. Sounds like a good thing... until you find that's not ALL triclocarban does.
Triclocarban is known to interfere with male and female sex hormones and normal bodily functions. When it's rinsed off your skin and goes down the drain, this chemical can easily find its way into our water systems. It's immensely harmful to our planet because it's considered a highly persistent chemical that takes more than a decade to degrade!
Nix the triclocarban in your daily cleansing routine! Bamboo carbon-infused soaps and face washes give your skin non-toxic deep cleansing by absorbing bacteria and impurities - without the harmful ingredients found in many chemical cleansing products. It rids the skin of dirt and grime the safe, natural way - protecting not only your skin, but the earth, too.
So choose the deep clean without the compromise with Human Nature's Pure Strength Black Diamond Cleansing Bar with Energizing Peppermint and Pure Strength Oil-Fighting Face Wash - because good grooming goes beyond staying clean and looking good.
