[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Attractive packaging and easy to apply. The product is a black sludge type gel ( as you expect being a charcoal) and it foams up nicely on use. It feels quite gentle and not too abrasive. I suspect you could easily use this on a daily basis but if you choose to do this you will need to moisturise afterwards as is will dry your face a little as you would expect. As part of a full facial routine this works well and I will buy again but you have to be aware of its limitations in that you must moisturise afterwards.

I regularly buy this product and has been good. Recently the packaging has changed and the lid is really hard to open in the shower compared to the previous version. Not sure why it's changed but would have been a 5 stars if not for the current defunct packaging.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried the L'Oreal Men Expert Pure Carbon Anti-Blackhead Deep Cleansing Daily Face Scrub and was very impressed with the results. The scrub has a great texture that effectively exfoliates my skin without being too harsh. After using it, my face feels incredibly clean and smooth, and I've noticed a noticeable reduction in blackheads. Plus, the subtle scent is pleasant and not overpowering. I would definitely recommend this product to any man looking to improve their skincare routine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This face scrub is a definite win for me, I have been using it for a few weeks now and it has really helped to unclog my pores especially on my nose. Even from the very first time using it I was won over, as it left my skin feeling soft and smooth and so much cleaner. It has a very nice clean scent to it and I also like the natural particles that it contains as they are not harsh on my skin, but they really do help in removing excess dirt, oil and really do help in unclogging my pores.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoyed using this product and for the first use it was absolutely fine however on subsequent uses over the next week or so it caused my skin to appear oily a few hours after use. Due to this I also had a few spots develop on my forehead and general T zone. It's not the end of the world but I just don't think this product suited my skin with the current warmer climate. I will give it a break and return to my prior skin regime and will try it again in a few months

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For the price, this is good value. This facewash gives you a really thorough clean, removing excess oils and leaves my face really soft and oil free. In my opinion, it's better than some products that are significantly more expensive.
It comes out grey in your hand, but once you start to wash your face it turns white.
Already seeing results after a few days, reduces redness, whiteheads and blackheads. The only slight downside is that my skin feels quite dry afterwards.Recommends this product✔ YesOriginally posted on loreal-paris.co.uk -

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was sceptical at first that this would benefit me but it has helped clear my blackheads after a few weeks of continuous daily use. I like how even a little amount can lather up and create a good coverage on my face. I like how it leaves me feeling clear, clean and soft
It has worked that well that my teenage son has noticed and has also started using it to get his blackheads cleared up.
Would certainly recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an excellent product and it certainly gives the skin on your face a proper deep clean. It gently but thoroughly removes dead skin cells and clears blocked and problematic pores meaning that blackheads are cleared away.
It’s non drying and smells nice. My face has cleared up so well just by using this particular face wash so I’d definitely recommend it.Recommends this product✔ YesOriginally posted on loreal-paris.co.uk -

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pure Carbon is a little weird when you open the tube, it's almost totally black. once you get over the initial shock the smell is nice and the effect is great. if you have greasy skin it will take away the shine and clean the pores a treat. after a few days of using this my face looks so much better. Very pleased with this product.

Haven’t had blackheads for a few years now but it’s great to use a product which makes you feel hydrated and ready for the day. People have commented on how good the face looks and often ask which product I am using. A must for your daily cleansing program.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is really not good. It really stings when you put it on your face and strips of any moisture. It would defenmitely be a bad choice for sensitive skin. It got into my eyes, and man it hurt. My eyes stung for a good few minutes and hurt afterwards. I would not recommend. The smell is too strong as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this for a few days and right from the start I noticed a freshness that you actually feel as well as see on the skin itself. The charcoal colour might appear strange, but it definitely seems to be unblocking the pores in my skin which is good news for me and bad news for blackheads.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like this as it makes my skin feel really clean and fresh. I have been using it every morning and evening after washing my face and before I use my moisturiser. You need to be gentle with it though as it can feel a bit scratchy. I think this is making my skin look clearer and feel softer.
