    Clean and healthy face

    7 years ago
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cannot imagine better daily face wash to keep my oily skin clear and healthy. L’Oreal Men Pure Charcoal targets and reduces imperfections. I do not have any blackheads since I use this unique face wash daily. It has paste like consistency but dissolves perfectly and quickly in water. The light foam cleanses my face thoroughly. I feel refreshed and perfectly clean. It does not leave my skin dry, tight and itchy. Cleanses well but also locks moisture in. After using L’Oreal Pure Charcoal Purifying Daily Face Wash my confidence in my skin has improved. I would consider a full skin care regime of this range.

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    People, Planet, Profit in equal measure please

    3 years ago
    Excellent face wash and good for my skin, but poor packaging and bad for the planet. So my face might look good and feel good, but ultimately the degraded environmental impact of the product will also destroy my face alongside the planet, but L'Oreal's shareholders will be rich, as the world decays and communities suffer the consequences of their singular profit orientated motivation to make themselves better off. My advice, buy something that respects people, planet and profit equally from a more caring and considerate organisation, like a B-Corp.

    No, I do not recommend this product.

    Pore cleansing face wash that buffs dry skin

    7 years ago
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product was great for my holiday in Spain and definitely helped to unclog my pores from sun lotion and everyday dirt. I try not to leave it on for too long as I found that it has a drying effect when on for more than 2-3 minutes. But by following on my routine with the matching moisturiser this instantly restored the softness to my skin. It definitely buffs away dead skin and clogged pores.

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    Its ok

    6 years ago
    This is not a bad product. It really does take care of brakeouts and blackheads, BUT it really irritates the skin and it burns really bad. Im not saying it is a bad product maybe its just how my skin handles it but it really stings my face and it leaves my skin really red afterwards.

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    Works amazing, smells good and give nice wakeup

    4 years ago
    Perfect consistenc, can be used both as a faceqash and a quick mask. Nice wakeup feeling in the morning from the mint, leaves skin perfectly clean. Pleasant smell. Please do Not exchange this with the Vulcanic one. This one is way better and have a much more pleasant smell.

    My husband tried this product and didn’t like it because his skin got so dry after use. The product does cleanse his face thoroughly but it was too dry for him and he has oily skin. He would only use it once a week as a deep cleanse. Not recommended for dry skin.

    Good product, old packaging much better

    6 years ago
    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.

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    Pamper time!

    7 years ago
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This feels like a pamper session when I use it! I can't believe it's as cheap as it is, it cleans my face well and helps to combat oil well as well. A little goes a long way so the bottle lasts a long time and it leaves me feeling ready for the day!

    Yes, I recommend this product.
