Ingredients

1 tablespoon activated charcoal powder

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

A few drops of water (optional, for adjusting consistency)

Small bowl for mixing

Instructions

Prepare the Bowl: Add 1 tablespoon of activated charcoal powder.

Add Lemon Juice: Pour in freshly squeezed lemon juice.

Mix Well: Stir until a smooth, thick paste forms.

Tips

For cleaning, apply with a soft brush or cloth and rinse well.
For skin use, perform a patch test first — lemon is acidic and may irritate sensitive skin.
Store-bought charcoal products often contain fillers; homemade keeps it pure and potent.
Always use activated charcoal, not BBQ charcoal.
Avoid using on polished surfaces, marble, or delicate fabrics.
