INGREDIENTS:

• Bamboo charcoal
  Bamboo charcoal is an amazingly absorptive material due to its very porous structure which gives it a huge surface area. A highly effective odor absorber. Bamboo charcoal is used to control humidity and eliminate odors, moisture is locked in and dry air released. The porous substance is also excellent at filtering impurities in water and can be used to remove chlorine after sterilization. This material has been traditionally produced in China & Japan and documented as early as 1486 AD. Other uses for the powder form have claims for teeth whitening and even as a detox when taken with water, although we have not tried either of these ourselves.
• Baking Soda
  Good old fashioned baking soda, or sodium bicarbonate is another of the wonder ingredients that has a list of applications, ancient Egyptians used it as a form of soap through to cleansing & cleaning in the home up to the present day. This salt is used in cooking as a leavening agent and in the preservation of food, sodium bicarbonate is also an efficient odor absorber.
• Zeolite
  Zeolite is formed as a mineral under volcanic conditions and mined on a large scale in many parts of the world. This material is also incredibly good at adsorption and has a wide range of applications from deodorizing in cat litter to purifying water, it is used in the production of many laundry detergents and even in preparation of advanced materials and in nuclear reprocessing. After the Fukushima Nuclear disaster in 2011, sandbags of zeolite were dropped into the seawater near the power plant to adsorb radioactive caesium which was present in high levels. Zeolite also has many other uses such as in construction and the medical sector, too many to list.

Recent studies support a role for the topical application of tea tree oil in skin care and for the treatment of various diseases and conditions.
