Intrinsic Charcoal + Tallow Face Soap is a gentle yet deeply purifying cleansing bar formulated to draw out impurities, absorb excess oil and support a clearer, more balanced complexion — without the harshness of conventional deep-cleanse products.

The result is a clean, matte, refreshed complexion — balanced, clearer and visibly refined.

Product Details
Key Ingredients
Activated Charcoal
Acts like a magnet for the skin — drawing out deep-set dirt, excess oil and environmental impurities from pores. Leaves skin visibly cleaner, clearer and more refined without abrasion.
Tallow (Sodium Tallowate)
A deeply nourishing ingredient that mirrors the skin's own natural lipid structure. Ensures the skin is cleansed without being stripped — maintaining comfort and skin barrier integrity throughout.
Olive Oil (Sodium Olivate)
Rich in skin-conditioning fatty acids and antioxidants. Supports a gentle, non-stripping cleanse while helping to maintain the skin's natural moisture balance.
Tea Tree Oil (Melaleuca Alternifolia)
A natural purifying botanical that provides a refreshing, clarifying finish. Helps combat bacteria and supports clearer-looking skin with every use.
Glycerin
A natural humectant that draws moisture to the skin — ensuring the cleansing bar leaves skin feeling soft and comfortable rather than tight or dry.
Why Intrinsic
Most skincare products are formulated with fillers, stabilisers and synthetic ingredients that pad out the formula and dilute results. At Intrinsic Skincare we believe you should never have to choose between clean ingredients and visible results.
Every Intrinsic formula is naturopath-developed and built on a simple principle — only ingredients that genuinely serve your skin make it into the bottle. No fillers. No compromise. No hidden nasties.
This means higher concentrations of active botanicals and clinical ingredients, products that last longer, and results you can actually see and feel.
Clean. Clinical. Uncompromising.
Directions for use
Wet face with warm water. Lather the soap between your hands and apply gently to the face, avoiding the eye area. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and pat dry.
For a deeper cleanse:
Leave the lather on the skin for 5-10 minutes before rinsing to allow the Activated Charcoal to draw out deeper impurities. Use this method once or twice a week.
For daily cleansing:
Use as a regular gentle face wash morning or evening.
Suitable for vegans. Suitable for oily, combination and blemish-prone skin types.
