Our culture editor loves this charcoal toothpaste because it leaves her teeth feeling squeaky clean. “The products are all-natural so I don’t have to worry about what type of chemicals I’m putting directly into my mouth,” she told me. “There’s still the slightly minty taste that we’re used to from traditional toothpaste and the toothpowder lasts for a very long time.”

Wells–Puoane is also a fan of the brand’s face masks. “I’m not a big skincare person, but I do love the occasional face mask. I think it’s fascinating to observe how your skin smooths and tightens after a few minutes of attention with the right products. Ase’s DIY charcoal facemask is affordable at just $7.00. It lets you play mini-chemist mixing the products. It comes in a resealable bag so it can and will last a while. And my skin was left feeling healthier afterward.”
