The Body Shop Charcoal Pore-Minimizing Mask — 75 ml Clay Mask with Bamboo Charcoal & Tea Tree for Oily/Combination Skin

Designed for a weekly deep-clean, this tingly clay mask combines bamboo charcoal sourced from the Himalayan foothills with green tea leaves and Community Fair Trade tea tree oil. The formula is free from parabens, paraffin, silicones and mineral oil, and provides a visible refine-and-refresh effect without harsh scrubbing. Use two to three times per week as part of an at-home facial to remove build-up and improve skin texture.

How does this mask reduce the appearance of pores?

The mask uses bamboo charcoal to bind to oil and surface impurities, helping clear congested pores and creating the appearance of a smoother skin surface. The clay base tightens as it sets, which temporarily refines pore visibility and polishes skin texture.

• Bamboo charcoal attracts excess sebum and trapped dirt.
• Clay base absorbs oil to mattify the skin.
• Green tea leaves provide gentle physical texture for mild exfoliation.
• Tea tree oil supports a clearer-looking finish.

How should I use the mask for best results?

Apply an even layer to clean, dry skin, avoiding the eye and lip areas. Leave on until mostly dry, then rinse thoroughly; use two to three times weekly or as needed after heavy oil buildup or environmental exposure.

• Start with a cleansed face for better ingredient contact.
• Apply a thin-to-medium layer—no need for thick coverage.
• Rinse with warm water and a soft cloth to remove residue.
• Follow with toner and a lightweight moisturizer for balance.

Will this mask suit my skin type and sensitivities?

The formula is created for all skin types but is especially useful for combination and oily skin that experiences breakouts or visible pores. If you have very dry or sensitive skin, patch-test first and reduce frequency if the tingle feels strong.

• All skin types can use it; oily/combination benefit most.
• 100% vegan and free from parabens, paraffin, silicones and mineral oil.
• Contains natural extracts—patch test recommended for sensitive skin.
• Use less often or dilute with moisturizer for drier skin.

What makes this mask different from other charcoal masks?

This product highlights responsibly sourced bamboo charcoal from the Himalayan foothills alongside green tea leaves and Community Fair Trade tea tree oil, giving a blend of absorbent charcoal, gentle physical texture and a naturally derived clarifying oil. The tingly sensation signals active ingredients working on surface impurities without harsh chemical actives.

• Bamboo charcoal for strong adsorption power.
• Green tea leaves for light exfoliation and an invigorating feel.
• Community Fair Trade tea tree oil for a sourced botanical touch.
• Free of parabens, paraffin, silicones and mineral oil.

Who is this for: This charcoal pore-minimizing mask is ideal for anyone seeking a weekly deep-clean—particularly those with oily, combination or congested skin looking to refine texture and reduce shine. It also fits vegan and ethically minded shoppers who prefer formulas without parabens or mineral oils. If you have very sensitive skin, perform a patch test and adjust usage frequency to avoid irritation.
