Garnier SkinActive Pure Charcoal Tissue Mask with Black Algae Review

Got given this as a gift, and I loved it! I have normal/sensitive skin, and it didn't irritate at all and gave me some great moisture

I really liked this product. I used it after washing my face. It made my skin feel really soft and hydrated. However, I did not find that it helped my pores at all, they seemed exactly the same. Maybe if I used this product more than once I would see results in this area.

Thanks to Beauty Review I've become a bit of a tissue mask fiend. When I opened this mask I was so pleasantly surprised by the quality of the 'tissue'.

It feels thick - I was worried it wouldn't stick to my contours, but it is actually really pliable. You can quite firmly pull and move it in to place, and it does actually have a bit of stretch (I have a big head haha, it needed a bit of extra pulling over the five-head)

You look as daft as ever wearing it, but it's still a lovely feeling to have it on. Cooling and refreshing, and it feels secure, so you really can go about your business, fold the washing, do the dishes etc. Or lay on the couch and relax. Whatever's your masking jam.

It is saturated in serum. I mean you could probably soak two masks with the amount of product in the sachet, but I'd rather that than a stingy amount. I used the excess on my decolletage, neck and hands.

Immediately after use my skin felt very soft, but also very clean and refreshed. The pores on my oil-slick of a chin looked clearer and definitely more refined. I was really impressed!

I would definitely repurchase this, especially for these hot summer days where my skin feels gross after a day in the heat!

I'm hoping for a multi-pack of masks from Garnier - it would be more economical and I'd use them more, meaning my skin would look fab more often!

I'm in my late teens with skin prone to blackheads and oil. I have a really basic skin care routine and enjoyed adding in this extra treatment.

The mask is easy to apply, and not as thin as I would have thought! It's quite wet, I was worried it was going to be sliding off my face, but it stayed put!

The serum is cooling and fresh and I could feel it working, but in a comfortable way. Not quite a tingle, but that reassuring feeling you're not looking like a serial killer for no reason!

I found my skin felt and looked smooth. It definitely seemed to remove impurities from my pores. I picked up another one with my shopping this weekend, I'm going to make this a weekly treat for my skin!

I really recommend this as an inexpensive treat for your skin!

I was lucky enough to receive this as part of the trial team. I'm normally a mud-mask type of person as tissue masks have never really been my 'go-to'.

I tried this out yesterday and was quite surprised how nice it was, the tissue mask had a neutral smell to it, it was black which was cool and had plenty of "goop" to move down my neck while I was waiting for it to do its thing!

Directly after, my skin felt clean and hydrated, and a full 24 hours afterwards my skin still feels hydrated and quite smooth—I also have a spot of psoriasis in the middle of my forehead, and I've noticed that has helped it in such a small amount of time, which is exciting!

I can confidently say that I would be interested in purchasing this product again, I am still very much attached to my mud masks and how they pull everything out, however, I feel this would compliment it nicely to bring back some hydration to my skin.

I'd originally received the Garnier SkinActive Pure Charcoal tissue mask in a beauty subscription box. I love a good sheet mask so was very excited to try this one and it did not disappoint. In fact, I was so impressed that I went out and bought every type of Garnier's new tissue mask range.

While the Charcoal mask is probably my third favourite of the range, it definitely does everything advertised and is loaded with serum which leaves your skin feeling absolutely amazing and refreshed.

There is so much serum in the package that I typically use the mask, throw it out, and then use the leftover serum in the package later that day just to keep my skin feeling extra plumped and refreshed. Highly recommend!

This is very nice and gentle on my skin. I did not get any irritation from this product at all. Very happy. I have purchased more x

I found this mask very easy to use and does not break which is a bonus! The serum that is left on my skin after I have removed the tissue mask feels heavenly and the mask really does help to clear up the odd pimples. I use this mask on average once a week.

I've tried the blue and black ones so far and I can honestly say the charcoal sheet mask is the way to go if you have normal skin with the very odd, minor breakout or dry patch. The blue one upset my skin and dried it out on my cheeks around my nose and mouth. It was quite sore and uncomfortable. Therefore ill be sticking to this charcoal one

This is a great mask. I love the affordability and simplicity of the Garnier sheet masks range, being able to pick one up from the supermarket where ever you are is awesome.

The packet is easy to rip open and the mask is easy to remove. I did find unfolding the mask a bit more difficult than usual but I think this is because of how much serum is packed in there. The mask was easy to put on my face and stayed on well, even in the bath.

I left the mask on for the recommended time then removed it. It did not irritate my sensitive skin at all, or leave it feeling dried out. I kept the packet to use the leftover serum later on - there is a generous amount in there. My skin was left feeling moisturiesd, firm, fresh and nourished. I don't think my pores look any smaller but my skin does look hydrated and better overall. Would definitely use again.

I also love that the mask is home compostable! If only the packet was too!!
