I have wanted to try a Charcoal face mask/wash for so long and was so pleased to be accepted into this trial particularly because it is actually an amazing product. The Garnier Pure Active 3 in 1 Charcoal Intensive wash, scrub and mask deeply cleanses and quickly helps reduce any breakouts. I used this as both a mask that I left on for 5 minutes at a time approx two times a week, then on the opposite nights I would use it as a wash/scrub. Immediately after using it as a mask, my skin felt smo...

I had the opportunity to be on the Trial Team for Garnier's Pure Active Intense Charcoal 3-in-1. What I liked most about this product is that it really is multiple products in one, Wash, Scrub and Mask. I'm not so sure it could really be called 3-in-1 though, as it is kind of impossible to wash your face with this product without scrubbing it. I did use this product in all 3 ways as directed on the packaging. The Wash and Scrub were essentially the same thing, my face did feel purified and t...

I have to say I started out a bit skeptical with the 3in1 promise of this product as they tend to skimp on quality to combine uses however I really enjoyed using this product and will continue to use it!
When used as a mask:<br />Pros:<br />- very easy to apply on your skin (strongly pigmented)<br />- when dry the mask does not flake off like some other masks which is great if you are using it in bed/on the furniture<br />- following use there was a noticeable differen...

The Garnier Pure Active Intensive Charcoal 3-in-1 is fantastic for oily skin. It's a terrific cleanser thanks to the salicylic acid, which helps removes dirt. It has exfoliating bits in it to help unclog pores and smoothen your skin. I love that this cleanser helps remove excess oil (thanks to the charcoal) without stripping all the natural oils away. It doesn't leave my skin feeling tight, which is amazing
There are a couple of cons though - one of which is that I don't know how this works ...

I am quite picky with what I use on my skin, namely my face as I do have quite sensitive skin. I have been battling with blackheads for as long as I can remember, with going to the gym more I really needed something to clear my face and remove all the excess oils at the end of a long day.
I have combination skin and am at work in aircon all day and then working out a few nights a week so my skin has to deal with a lot, and on top of that all the makeup I lather on.
This stuff made my blackh...

I have always loved using charcoal products for my problematic skin. I tend to have breakouts and blackheads mainly around my chin area. Nothing seems to help me get rid of the bumps and pimples under my lip
After trialing the Pure Active 3 in 1 charcoal anti-blackhead product, I noticed this area was smoother, less blackheads were showing and no more pimples!
I used it as a wash everyday for 2 weeks and scrubbed it simultaneously with each wash. The mask I used it on the entire face and left...

I was very excited to be invited to partake in the trial of Garnier Pure Active Intensive Charcoal 3-in-1 wash, scrub and mask. I have been hearing a lot of buzz about skincare products based on or containing charcoal and have already tried a charcoal mask from a different brand previously , which I really liked, so I was super keen to try another charcoal product
This 3-in-1 product comes in a squeezable tube with a pop lid, which makes for easy dispensing. I found it very handy and easy to ...

This product is a cleanser, scrub and mask all in one. It is excellent for those who are looking to purchase a product that does it all. Because the product contains charcoal it comes out as a thick black cream, so avoid using white towels when using this! It smells quite fresh and feels very soothing when applied to the skin. I preferred it more as a mask as it was good for mattifying my pores. It also makes for a great selfie! After using it for a couple of weeks I noticed that my skin look...

After using the Garnier 3 in 1 Charcoal Anti-Blackhead scrub for two weeks I started to notice a difference in my skin. I felt like I wasn't suffering form as may blemishes and my skin was smoother and not as oily.
It comes in a great size squeeze bottle of 150mls which should last at least 1-2 months when using every day. The lid is think sturdy plastic which seals well for no leakage.
It has a rather strong smell, of charcoal with a hint of blueberry extract. It is not a horrible smell e...

PureActive Intense 3 in 1 Charcoal Anti-Blackhead Wash, Scrub and Mask promises an intense and very deep clean of the pores to help reduce even the most resistant blackheads and prevent their appearance. I don't really suffer with black heads, but rather general breakouts, but still I've found this cleanser useful.
It can be used as a gentle and daily wash to help purify the skin and remove dirt and impurities thanks to containing salicylic acid. But it can also be used as a scrub as it cont...
