I have been doing a lot of research about charcoal masks and do they actually work? I have seen many masks that helps remove blocked pores. I tried one but it was like waxing you face, but worse!! So painful!
I wasn't sure about this product but I love Garnier products and I know when they do something, they always do it right. This is a fantastic product! I
I tried the face mask first. When I put it on my face, it was so easy to smooth all over and was not dripping off my face, which makes i...

What I like most about Garnier Pure Active Intensive Charcoal 3-in-1 is its function as a mask. I apply it to my face with a foundation brush (that I no longer use for foundation), and even coating of the thick black product all over, except my delicate eye area, it is too rough for that and not necessary. After a few minutes (usually while sitting on the couch watch some episode of trashy day-time TV), the magic starts to happen and I feel the tightness that I want from a mask. I find it ver...

At first I was hesitant to switch from the face wash I was using as I thought I wouldn't find better, but I am so glad I got the chance to try this product. Not only is it a great face wash but the ability for it to also be a scrub and a mask is fabulous! I tried this product as a general wash, AND LOVED IT. I tried this product as a scrub, AND LOVED IT. I tried this product as a mask, AND LOVED IT. This product does leave you with that just clean tingly feeling which I know I love as I can f...

Thanks BH for giving me chance of trialing this product which can be used as wash, scrub and mask. Problem of buying 3 different products for home facial is finally been resolved by this all purpose wonder and no hues for storing three tubes in cabinet as already struggling in a shared accommodation. It comes in easy squeezable tube and packaging is simple. Also, very economical as tube is big and for a small squeeze of product goes a long way. Cherry on the cake is can be used in 3 differen...

I really liked this product!<br />I have tried a few charcoal products before and I find that they can really dry out my skin if I use them too often but not with this product, I have used it as a mask a few times and just for generally washing my face and my skin is still nice and hydrated.<br />MASK: I put a medium layer of this all over my face and leave on for 5-10 mins and you can see some of the oil that was in my skin soaking into the mask, once its washed off my skin looks...

Overall impression:<br />The Garnier Pure Active Intensive Charcoal 3-in-1 is an excellent cleanser and scrub, and gentle enough to use daily. It left my skin feeling clean, soft and smooth but not irritated. I did not find any long term benefits however, with regards to a reduction in my blackheads, and thus found it unnecessary to use as a mask
Packaging / Cost:<br />I liked the look of the product and the upturned tube made it simple to get the product out even when running low...

I got this product as part of the Trial Team and I couldn’t wait to use it! The idea that it has charcoal in it was very interesting to try and it didn’t disappoint!
My face tends to get a lot of blocked pores and blackheads, lots of cystic acne on the bottom half of my face, so I was really excited to try something that promised a relief!<br />-PACKAGING –<br />This product comes in a big tube, with a lid that snaps shut....

I'll admit that when I received this product I was a little bit hesitant - while my skin is combination, it has a tendency to dry out easily if I use the wrong product. I was however excited to read that it contained salicylic acid, which is without a doubt my favourite active ingredient when I have breakouts. This product was either going to work really well or really bad; thankfully it was very much the former!
It can be a bit difficult to put my finger on the scent, however I can definitel...

I absolutely love this product. I previously used the Garnier 3 in 1 pure active. I decided to try the Garnier Pure Active Intensive Charcoal 3-in-1. It is by far one of the best products I have used to treat my acne/blemish prone skin. It clears up any acne/blemish when used as a wash. When used as a scrub it clears up blackheads and when used as a mask it really tightens your pores.

The Garnier Pure Active Intensive Charcoal 3-in-1 is a cleanser, scrub and mask which is so easy and convenient as its all in one, great for people that don't have time to buy separate products or the money.
I find this product to be super easy to apply and you only need a small amount as a little goes a long way. When using this product as a scrub I find that the granules are a great size and not to rough on your skin. It really helped with any breakouts I was having and made my pores notic...
