I am not the greatest fan of charcoal scrubs at the best of times so didnt really go in to using the Garnier Skin Active 3 in 1 charcoal anti-blackhead wash/scrub/mask with the most enthusiasm. I was however very shocked and surprised at just how fantastic this product is after one single use! This product is designed for oily combo skin, and found it didnt affect the quality of my skin in any way, ie drying it out or anything like that.
The product is surprisingly thick and a little goes a ...

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...

Thank you Beauty Heaven and Garnier for letting me trial the Garnier Pure Active Intensive Charcoal 3-in-1 product.
Overall impressions: This product is an excellent exfoliator for all skin types, and a great mask and cleanser for oily / acne-prone skin.
Cost/packaging: The product is eye-catching with the blue and black packaging, and,at approximately $12, it is very affordable.
How the product smelled: the Garnier Pure Active Intensive Charcoal 3-in-1 product has an initial strong smell ...

I was very excited to trial this product for the good properties, charcoal brings to oily skin. First of all, the packaging is attractive and the tube is quite big which is a good value for money for the price it is being sold. It has the right consistency and application is very easy. I love the little grains which are very soft on the skin, I definitely feel that my skin is fresh and cool after using this product
The scent is very strange and I can't figure out what it smells, a kind of h...

I was really intrigued to try this product, as charcoal seems to be all the rage at the moment. I was especially keen to try the product in each way: as a mask, as a scrub and as a face wash. I have a couple of blackheads on my chin and nose, so I was also keen to see if this product would make a difference to my normal to combination skin
I first tried this product as a mask. It is a thick and very opaque product. There is no apparent smell. I applied a layer that was not too thick or thin, ...

I'm really pleased with the results I got whilst trialling this product! My skin is combination, a little oily in the T zone but my cheeks can be quite dry. Having used plenty of drugstore skincare products in the past, I didn't have high hopes.<br />However much to my surprise, I was hooked first use. It left my skin feeling clean, fresh, smooth but not try across my cheeks like plenty other scrubs do.<br />I used this twice daily to wash my face, then about twice a week I left i...

I have to admit, I was initially drawn to this product because I read that Charcoal is a ‘dirt magnet’. The three hero ingredients in this are: Charcoal – Absorbs oil and excess sebum. Salicylic Acid – Helps to eliminate blemishes, and reduce long-term scarring. Micro Beads – Helps deeply cleanse the skin
The packaging for this product is gender neutral, this product is perfect for women and men...

This is a fantastic product with a fantastic price tag for the ingredients it contains. Firstly anything charcoal wins me over straight away and secondly anything that does 3 things has my tick of approval.
I have super sensitive skin and more times than not these kind of products can irritate my skin, but not in this case, my skin is supple smooth and incredible clean once the mask is removed. I use it as a mask first and then rub it off like a cleanser and scrub. It has a fresh scent and I&...

I did not find this worked with blackheads. I got a big one on my chin from wearing a mask. I have been using this mask for a week. While the redness has gone from the big pimple. I think that would have gone on it's own. The charcoal comes out a grey colour and washes off easily.

WOW! For a drugstore, relatively cheap product I was super pleasantly surprised. The tube bottle ensures that the product stays away from impurities in the air etc and makes it easy to control the amount that you use. Its consistency is great- very easy to spread and apply an even layer over your face. When wearing the mask it is quite refreshing and relaxing. After 5-10minutes and gently washing off the mask your skin is left feeling refreshed and super clean. When I looked in the mirror I c...
