ADVEKET Charcoal Glow Mask as a Pre-Shave

ADVEKET Charcoal Glow Mask as a Pre-Shave

One question I get asked very often while doing men's grooming on set, or just in general is "Whats your favorite pre-shave treatment, or how to prevent ingrown hair?" and "Why is a pre-shave treatment important?"

Exfoliation and deep cleansing is pretty much the only answer! There are a lot of pre-shave treatments out there. Ranging from oils to foams to scrubs there is no shortage of pre-shave treatments for men to explore and truthfully it can be a daunting task to choose the one that's best for you.
I have very dry and sensitive skin, so shaving has always been a painful experience. No matter the razor or the creams, its always been something I dreaded doing because it literally hurts and leaves my skin bright red and irritated. One day it dawned on me to use my favorite charcoal mask, the  ADVEKET "Glow Mask" as a pre-shave. The sodium bicarbonate works to loosen the dirt and oils around the hair follicle while the charcoal offers a deep cleanse helping to clear a path for your razor. Once its on for a few minutes (I sometimes use this just as a pre-shave exfoliant scrub and not as a mask for a quicker procedure!) Once water hits the formula it gets hot, the heat will help to loosen the hair follicle and lift any remaining dirt or oil that may be left. This combination of deep cleansing and exfoliation will also help to prevent break outs and ingrown hairs!! There is just no end to how wonderful this treatment is, it's definitely on of the best charcoal masks, if not one of the best face masks EVER!

The Best Charcoal Mask

The Best Charcoal Mask.
When I decided to take ADVEKET into skincare by launching Beyond Binary Skincare, I wanted to make sure that the products were on par with what was currently available in the market. Having worked for luxury skincare and make-up lines for over a decade, I knew this was not going to be the easiest task! After years of searching out labs and formulas I decided on one that I felt would not only  suit most all skin types, but would perhaps encourage the user to explore other avenues of self love and me time. I landed on what is now the activated charcoal Glow Mask. This mask uses Sodium Bicarbonate and activated white charcoal powder to deep cleanse pore and exfoliate dead skin. This mask is my favorite new pre shave treatment to use on myself as well as mens grooming clients. It's also a preventative treatment for acne and help to spot treat break outs!
What It Is
This deep-cleansing mask helps restore radiance by eliminating toxins and impurities and energizing the complexion to reveal a healthy, youthful glow. The thermal, charcoal formula activates with water, creating a warming sensation, while helping to melt away debris.
Gluten Free. 
What's Inside
Binchotan White Charcoal Powder draws out dirt and other pore-clogging debris.
Sodium Bicarbonate helps prevent problem-causing bacteria, absorb excess oil and decongests pores.
Glycerin provides intense hydration, enhances moisture retention and softens skin.
Apply a generous amount to a dry face, being careful to avoid the immediate eye area. Leave for 5 minutes, then wet hands and massage into skin to activate. Remove with moistened cotton pads and rinse well with warm water. Follow with moisturizer or night crème.
Using this mask twice a week will help to keep skin looking smooth, taught and fresh. Your pores will appear smaller and the skin will have an over all glow. I have stopped using all other exfoliants since creating this mask. As a sensitive, dry skin I have always had trouble with exfoliants. Scrubs are too aggressive and acidic exfoliants have always irritated my skin. Once water touches this mask it evolves into a very slight grit. I would compare to a sloughing of dead skin and debris, not a scrub by any means. In my opinion this truly is the best charcoal mask EVER!

The best Bath Bomb

Everyone is aware of the wonderful benefits of using a bath bomb. Whether it be the aroma therapy, the relaxation of the salts or even the color therapy provided through the changing of tub water color via the bath bomb. So how do you choose the bath bomb that's right for you?
For me I like to look at a few things: What are the additional benefits of the ingredients? Are the ingredients natural? Is it hand made? Is it made in America? Does the company support a charitable cause?
For me all of those questions can be answered through the ADVEKET Beyond Binary Activated Charcoal Dextox Bathbomb! The aroma therapy is light and smooth, using essence of Aloe and Oak Moss to sooth the senses. The bath bomb turns the water black (no it does not stain the tub). So your body is enveloped in a black calming abyss to help melt worries from the mind. Activated Charcoal then works to cleanse the skin of bacterias and dirt to help prevent break outs and promote clarity, while he bath salt works to calm muscles and relax the body over all. It is a complete sensory experience that helps to elevate daily stress, remove toxins and bacteria
Most importantly a portion of the proceeds from the ADVEKET Beyond Binary bath bomb is donated to the nonprofit for equality I Wore Lipstick A charity that works to raise equality awareness and create opportunity for lipstick wearers!!
The bath bombs are available online at www.adveketcosmetics.com

ADVEKET is stepping into skincare and apothecary this season with its launch of BEYOND BINARY charcoal bath bombs and charcoal soap. This is in addition to the Thermal activated charcoal Glow Mask coming this fall! In keeping with it's core theme ADVEKET (created by celebrity make up artist Justin Tyme) "Beyond Binary" is made for every human on the planet! The packaging is simple and environmentally friendly, the aesthetic is black (of course), the most universally worn shade in clothing. " I felt like in addition to people paying attention to their skin, there's also a new need for some self love and relaxation. The world around us is a scary place at the moment and this is on top on every humans daily stress. I think coming out with a few choice products would be a nice addition to help out friends in the pursuit of some "Me Time". I know for me personally, when I shut the bathroom door- that is MY TIME. To cleanse & scrub both my body and mind and help me to reset and prepare for everything waiting for me on the other side of that door." Justin Tyme. My hope is that with combination of the Thermal Glow mask, the charcoal bath bombs and the charcoal soap will help each user to not only relax & repair, but also to help cleanse and detox the body.
