Works great

Love this product as I visibly saw a difference in the skin of my face, however, I will never buy it again. There is a very strong perfume smell that is offensive, not necessary for a face cleanser. This is one of the best products for blackheads I have ever used too. Makes me sad, but I can't deal with that scent.

Love this transformed my skin BUT.....
4 years ago
I found and bought this in September of 2021. It literally made my skin poreless and clear. Just purchased a new cleanser yesterday Jan.2022 and the ingredients are different. It's missing jojoba oil and some other original ingredients. Why do companies mess with ingredients!! This new formula smells different and not in a good way. I am hesitant to use it. On this site you have the original ingredients listed but on this image on the cleanser it is different and not in a good way. So bothered by this because now the efficacy of the ingredients are in question. I knew the minute I used this new unimpressive formula that I have to move on. Such a shame because it did wonders for my skin. Why do you take out an important ingredient that helps the skin? ! Please go back to the ingredients listed below on this site but not on the product itself. Thank you.

Amazing after feel!
6 years ago
I have only used this product for at least 2 days! And already gave my face a new refreshing feel, also it eliminated some of my blackheads with a few washes you can totally feel the difference! I highly suggest for anyone trying to get rid of black heads! I do suggest that if your blackheads are on your nose please apply this product there so if your using another face wash you don’t break out too much! But I do have to add it may dry the skin so if you have a simple face moisturizer your skin will look flawless in no time!

This is my favorite SA face wash. I've been having trouble finding it and was worried it was discontinued. I think the scrub is just right, and the formula is gentle and non-drying. I notice immediate lightning/reduction of my pores with a single use, and even better results with regular use (once per day). It is a must before makeup application!

Loose the perfume!
7 years ago
I bought this last week at Walmart to save myself a trip to Sephora to purchase my usual charcoal mask. Works okay, but I won't purchase again because of the way too strong perfume smell. It's like slathering your face with Pinesol! Anyone using a charcoal anything knows it doesn't have a pleasant aroma but this fragrance is so overpowering. Definitely a fail- get rid of that and I might purchase again.

The best I ever had!!! ;)

I bought this about a month ago to add to my normal skin care routine and I have not had any pimples since!! (I usually blemishes get them in my T-Zone.) My skin is clear and glowing. My one pointer is to not use it around the eyes (eye bags and lids) as it has salicylic acid and can be drying. I use this product 4-6 times a week and would recommend this to anyone looking to exfoliate and clear their skin.

This product has really done its job on my skin! Before I used this product I was extremely oily year around. Because of the oil, I would get little bumps on my forehead, nose, and on my chin. This summer I broke out again and I told myself that I had to get a face wash. I have bought several products from Garnier and none of them has disappointed me. I have been using this product for 5 days now. I can truly say that I see a big difference in my bumps and skin. I will be buying this product again. It does its job and takes the oil away.

Sorry if this is gross. So I got a chin pimple so big I usually have to do some painful ritual to get all the juice out. The pimple I got this time was about the size of a dime and just ugly looking. My wife says use this Charcol cream. So I do. What ever they use worked the first time. It pulled all the pimple juice to the skin surface all at once. I am so shocked I don't know what to think. I do know I am going to apply to my whole face now. Best results ever.

I usually use your grapefruit & pomegranate balancing daily exfoliator, but I've had a hard time finding it, so I grabbed the charcoal scrub to try instead.

It smells like cheap men's aftershave :( I used it a few times, but ended up tossing it because the strong scent would stay with me after washing my face.

I bought this and two other Garnier products to start using after how well they helped a friend. At first it looked like something good was happening. But was I wrong, my face broke out no end and still can't recover. I was in shock because not even during my teenage years did I see those size pimples. I was excited that they had used charcoal and but none of them worked for me even though they turned my friends face into completely radiant.

I tried this product out about a month ago and absolutely LOVED IT! I am in high school and have a really bad blackhead and pore issue. When I first saw on the description that it would diminish my pores, remove, and prevent blackheads I was not believing it. But within a few days I noticed significantly less blackheads and smaller pores. I have been using it for a month now and I can proudly say I only have the occasional blackhead. The oil-control is very nice too! 100% reccomend.

I ran out of my face wash that wasn't doing anything. I seen this little bottle setting on the shelf and noticed it was for oil and blackheads. It's my third day and I can't believe the results so far. I noticed a huge difference a few hours after my first wash. The redness, large pores, and pimples are almost unnoticeable. I've been battling issues with my face for a few years now. After I had my second child. I wish I found this sooner. I'm only on day 3. I can't wait to see what week 1 brings. This is liquid gold for oily skin! I can't believe I wasted money on other products in the past. I even saved my receipt thinking I'd be returning this after a week. It'll be staying in my bathroom permanently!

- A: Hi there Dave! When using the Blackhead Eliminating Scrub with Charcoal wet hands and face, squeeze scrub into hands and rub together. Apply to face and massage gently, avoiding contact with eyes then rinse face thoroughly. Even washing the face thoroughly, the time on the face will be less than 1 minutes. The goal is to clean out the pores, but not to rub so hard as to aggravate the skin.6 years agoHelpful?
