Private Label Charcoal Mask
The black jar that photographs itself — activated charcoal deep-cleanse.
A mask is a dose delivered under occlusion
Covering the skin changes how anything underneath behaves: water loss falls, skin temperature rises and penetration increases. That is the mechanism every mask works with, whether the carrier is a sheet, a clay or a cream.
It also sets the limit. A product that would be comfortable as a leave-on can become uncomfortable when it is held against the skin for twenty minutes under a film.
The dwell-time formats we produce
Dwell time, removal and the pack all change together — these routes are not interchangeable.
| Format | Release behaviour | Typical brief |
|---|---|---|
| Bubble and foaming | Oxygenating action visible on skin | Formats that demo well in short video |
| Overnight leave-on | Absorbs fully with no rinsing step | Routines built around sleep |
| Biocellulose sheet | Tight adhesion, even delivery | Premium single-use masks |
| Gel mask | Translucent, cooling, no drying | Hydration and after-sun positioning |
Charcoal mask owns the most photogenic claim in masks: jet-black clay that dries matte and rinses to visibly cleaner-looking skin. Activated charcoal's adsorption story needs no translation, and the black color does half the marketing in both women's and men's shelves.
We blend activated charcoal with kaolin for a drying curve that detoxes without the crack-face over-dry, add soothing backups so the after-feel is comfortable, and keep the matte black finish camera-perfect for the application selfie.
What brands ask us about this category
Does charcoal 'pull out' toxins?
It adsorbs surface oil and debris-look — we word the claim at 'deep cleanse feel and look', which survives review and satisfies the demo.
Why does my clay mask crack painfully?
Over-fast drying — our kaolin-charcoal ratio keeps the mask flexible through the 10-minute wear so it rinses rather than shatters.
Men's line fit?
Charcoal is the number-one men's mask crossover — the tube repack with minimal graphics converts the grooming aisle.
From brief to released mask, step by step
- 1
Hold for microbiological release
Wet formats are released on a microbiological result, and for a jar the in-use study is part of the file.
- 2
Control the fill weight
In a single-use format fill weight is the dose, so it is checked per unit rather than on an average of the batch.
- 3
Verify the cut and fit
Cut geometry is checked against the reference so the mask sits the way the approved sample did.
- 4
Match the pack to the usage
Sachet, tube or jar, chosen against single-use or multi-use consumption patterns in the destination market.
Formats and order quantities
Mixed-variant orders can split the stated MOQ across formats under one brand.
| Format / Specification | MOQ | Lead Time |
|---|---|---|
| Charcoal clay mask 75 ml jar | 1,000 pcs | 10–15 days |
| Charcoal + salicylic acid build 75 ml | 1,000 pcs | 10–15 days |
| Men's charcoal mask tube 100 ml | 1,000 pcs | 10–15 days |
MOQ and lead time above are the standard liquid, cream and gel route. The real minimum is set by the manufacturing system rather than the category: surfactant systems (shampoo, body wash) start at 2,000 pcs, stick formats at 3,000, and powders and sheet masks at 5,000 — with longer production runs to match.
Four levers on a mask
Sheet saturation level
A sheet can hold only so much liquid without dripping. Saturation is tuned against the pack, the shelf life and how the customer applies it.
Dwell time sets the dose
A product left on for twenty minutes can carry more than one left on for one, so the level is set against real usage rather than the label.
The substrate is part of the formula
Sheet material, thickness and liquid retention all change how much active reaches the skin and how evenly it arrives.
Preservation after opening
A jar mask meets air and fingers at every use, so the preservation study runs against that in-use pattern rather than sealed shelf life alone.

The actives and the carrier behind them
INCI names and typical levels reflect publicly documented formulation practice. All values are adjustable in your build.
| Ingredient (INCI) | Typical Level | Function & Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Activated Charcoal Powder | 2–5% | Adsorption deep-cleanse look |
| Kaolin | 15–25% | Oil-absorbing clay base |
| Salicylic Acid (option) | 0.5–2% | Pore-look support |
| Glycerin | 3–5% | Over-dry prevention |
The paperwork that travels with a mask order
Manufacturing takes place in-house under GMPC and ISO 22716 certification, licence 粤妆20250206, with raw-material-to-carton traceability on each batch.
Every production order ships with a certificate of analysis, a stability summary, a microbiology report and MoCRA / CPNP-ready documentation.
For a wet format the retained Golden Sample is the reference for how the product dries, sets and rinses — properties that no single instrument reading captures.
