This is not the same as the type of charcoal you burn to cook food on the grill. Look for a jar of capsules labeled “activated charcoal” in the vitamin section of the store. If you can’t find activated charcoal locally, it’s available for purchase online. One bottle provides enough charcoal to make many year’s worth of eyeliner.

If the tweezers you’re using are all-metal, they may heat up and burn you if you use the lighter for too much time. Put on a glove to protect your hand. Try rotating the almond in a circle so it burns evenly on all sides.
As you scrape, make sure not to scrape off chunks of unburned almond. You want the soot to have a fine, dusty texture, with no big pieces. Examine the soot afterward and pick out any larger chunks.
