Carbon 60 (C60) has a cult following in the antioxidant-research space, so I was curious to try it in a topical form with Pure C60 Olive Oil's C60 Moisturizer, a 50ml cream made with organic ingredients.
Alongside Carbon 60 at 99.95% solvent-free purity, this cream includes hyaluronic acid, CoQ10, peptides, bee propolis, royal jelly, and glycolic/alpha hydroxy acids - a genuinely dense actives list for a moisturizer. It also leans on plant oils like avocado, jojoba, and evening primrose for a nourishing base.
It applies smoothly and absorbs without a greasy finish, and my skin felt notably plumper the next morning, likely from the hyaluronic acid content. Worth noting: the brand's own label states this is manufactured for scientific research purposes, so it's worth treating any anti-aging claims as informational rather than guaranteed results, and it's not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Pros: Genuinely ingredient-dense formula, made in the USA, pleasant non-greasy texture, noticeable hydration boost.
Cons: Labeled for scientific research use, so approach efficacy claims with reasonable skepticism and patch-test first if you have sensitive skin.
For skincare enthusiasts curious about C60, Pure C60 Olive Oil's Moisturizer was a genuinely pleasant, ingredient-rich cream to test.
