Garnier Pure Active Charcoal Peel-Off Reviews

Garnier Pure Active Charcoal Peel-Off is just awesome. I tried using it in my whole face because I feel like my face is clogged and it was sooooo good! When the mask has dried, I peeled it off and I can see the blackheads coming off and not only the blackheads but also my facial hair. It hurts a bit when you peel it off but I like it because you know that it's working.

I usually break out when I use product with salicylic acid but not with this one! Simply amazing and will definitely use again!

I own a couple of different branded peel masks. Often I find they strip the little hairs but not necessarily the blackheads. This product is excellent! It's a wee bit runnier than the others but drys super quick! When I pulled it off I could visibly see that it worked. It hurt but that's the nature of the game. I definitely recommend this product.

I am a fan of Garnier face masks as they leave my skin feeling soft and clean and this mask is no different. My skin felt smooth and fresh after taking the mask off after each application and after using it a handful of times my skin feels super clean and renewed. I did find you need to put on quite a large amount or else it doesn’t peel off but once I figured out the correct amount it peels off easily which I found left my skin feeling smooth.

Garnier Pure Active Charcoal anti blackhead peel off is the best black mask I have used. I have tried a number of other products similar to this and have found them very uncomfortable to use and hard to peel off. After washing and applying a generous even layer to the t zone and allowing the product to completely dry the mask was easy to peel off and you can see the amount of impurities it has pulled out from the pores. I have noticed a visible reduction in blackheads too. I like that the product doesn't smell horrible like I have found similar masks and the use of Charcoal and salicylic acid. The 50ml tube is also a great size in which you can get multiple applications from.

My initial thought upon reading the label is that it takes about half an hour to set before you can peel - to me I'm impatient and was a little put off by that. Ive tried the same product before in other brands and it usually says 10 minutes. Anyway, application was stock standard, just applied it with my fingers over my T-Zones. I let is sit for half an hour and it still felt sticky. It wouldn't transfer to my hand but it also didn't feel like if I ripped it off it pull all the gunk out. I started to pull it off and it came off in pieces and was really annoying and didn't pull anything. So I tried it again a couple of days later and left it for 50 minutes on my face, still had that same sticky feeling but peeled in one peel when I pulled it off. It is very light feeling when you pull and it doesn't feel like you're pulling anything out of your skin. When looking at the peel after I couldn't see any residue on it so itt just seemed like a waste of time.

I was a bit worried to try another charcoal peel off as I've had a bad experience before...But this was so good!! I've used it twice for the review as it says on the pack use 2 times per week and have had good results both times getting black heads out :) I found it very easy to apply to my skin, was just the right consistency. Has a fragrance to it which is not to harsh as other brands I've tried have been quite smelly. You don't have to use alot to cover the areas on your face so the tube is going to last a while. The packaging is good, explains well how to use it. Over all I'm happy with this brand, it left my skin nice and soft after it came off, and it was very easy to peel off. I will recommend to try this brand !!

I was excited to be picked for this beauty trial, as I struggle with large blocked pores. When applying, the consistency of the mask is quite thick and gooey, which resulted in the application being a bit difficult, as it didn't come out of the bottle very cleanly. However, once on my skin, it spread around fairly easily. It took around half an hour to fully dry, which is when you can start to peel it off. I was pleasantly surprised at how cleanly and easily the peel-off came away from my skin. It's very satisfying! Once I had removed the mask, I was able to see a little bit of residue that had come from my skin, but not as much as I would have expected. I have used nose pore patches in the past, and was expecting to have similar results to those. I didn't notice any reduction in my pore size, however the box recommends that this takes 4 weeks to notice. Overall, I was pleased that the peel-off seemed to remove some residue from my skin, but would have liked it to have been a bit stronger in terms of what it pulled out.

I had never tried a peel off charcoal mask prior to using this one. I had definitely seen them online before, but they looked quite painful to remove and I wasn't super keen pay money to be in pain!

I have combination skin. I have an oily t-zone (forehead, nose, chin), while the skin on my cheeks is normal. When I tried this product, I preferred to only use it on my t-zone area as this is where I'm mostly likely to have blocked pores or blackheads.

The product comes in a 50ml plastic tube. The actual product itself is a black liquid with a thick consistency. It has a fresh minty smell. Before applying the product to your face, you need to wash your face thoroughly and dry it. Otherwise the product won't adhere to your face properly and it won't work as well as possible. I preferred to use this product after getting out of the shower as it ensures your face is clean and your pores are open.

When applying the product, you need to get the right balance between applying a layer that is thin enough to dry quickly, but not too thin as it will tear too easily when you remove the mask and it won't get anything out of your pores. The instructions say to remove the mask once it has dried which the bottle recommends to be around 20-30 minutes. However I found that removing it after 30 minutes was never enough time for the mask to dry fully. I would leave it on for at least an hour and then remove it, otherwise it won't feel like it's getting anything out of your pores.

After having the mask on for around 5 minutes your face will feel very cool and fresh, which I think would feel especially nice in summer. When the mask is ready to remove, I scrunch my face up a bit because this detaches some of the mask from my skin and make it easier to peel off. Generally the mask would come off in one piece, with only a little bit left on my face which I would then wipe off with a warm flannel or face wipe. I didn't find the removal to be painful, it felt similar to removing a plaster. However I probably won't use this product if you have sensitive skin, as it may irritate your skin.

Overall the mask does an okay job at removing dirt and sebum from pores. However I don't think it minimised my pores or reduced excess oil. I will continue to use this product, but mostly because it's a fun novelty product that feels nice to apply and remove.

My problem area is mainly around my nose – I feel like at its worst, it resembles the Black dots on a strawberry. The fact that this comes in a tube is great – this means a no mess application. The texture of the product is thick and gooey. The scent is quite overpowering and reminds me of a lynx shower gel. This mask has done a very good job making the pores appear smaller on my nose. After using for approximately 2 weeks, I have found that my skin is clearer, brighter and smoother. The instructions on the tube indicate it should be used on the t-zone but I feel like this Is gentle enough to be used on any part of your face. I found it is deffintely trial and error as to how much product you need. I found the first time I used, i didn’t apply enough and found it really hard to peel off. Having used it a few times now, I find that it's important to put a good amount to make sure the layer is thick enough to peel off. All in all, a great product that I will continue to use
