Me: I get razor bumps/folliculitis when I shave and blemishes all over. When I follow the 3-step properly I have zero blemishes on my forehead or nose.

Did not resolve oily skin
Of course a product cannot completely vanish oily skin, but this product is used to assist in fighting oily skin seeing that it is a water based product as per the sales person.

I used to buy this face wash when it had a different name, and now that it's repackaged as a men's face wash I still buy it. It works great to clean my face without drying it out.

Husband love it
My husband is bald so this balances his head and face. No breakouts. No shine. Just a good clean. He does need a light moisturizer on his face after. It does leave him tight without it but he likes a moisturizer anyway.

I'm sure it does its job but I much prefer the regular face wash over the charcoal. This one just doesn't lather the way I like & I feel move clean with the original which is also less expensive. If charcoal is your thing though, this one's for you.

I noticed that the women's charcoal gel cleanser has been discontinued (very unhappy about that). I used it occasionally for breakouts. Is the men's charcoal cleanser comparable, or more harsh? I can't afford to dry my skin out too much.

- Q
Will this be suitable for dry or sensitive skin?
- Asked by Charlie
- Verified Reply - Brand ExpertHi! This product was designed for a more oily skin type. If you have dry skin, sensitive skin, you are probably looking for something with a little more cushion for the skin. You may want to try Clinique's Extra Gentle Cleansing Foam. If the dryness you are experiencing is a tight and uncomfortable feeling, this will give the skin more comfort after cleansing. If it is flakiness that you see on the skin, there is a need for more exfoliation. All Clinique products are great for sensitive skin. They are all fragrance free and all allergy tested. We test each product on a panel of 600 people, 12 times each. That equals 7200 applications. If one person has any type of reaction, we reformulate. You can always feel safe using products from Clinique. Thank you for your question and have a great week!Was this answer helpful to you
