Charcoal - Face Wash

Very good cleanser, removes dirt and makeup easily. Gentle but effective on my oily acne prone skin.

Too good not to share

It is an excellent product which does exactly what it claims. I am so impressed I have also converted my wife. Feel unique offer at a very good price with efficient delivery

Boyfriend Loved this Product!!!

I got this for my boyfriend as a gift because 1: he has oily skin & 2: he works hands on so he sweats a lot which causes him to have a lot of dirt on his face. The first use my boyfriend said he saw a difference and ever since then, he cannot stop using it! I definitely recommend this to those who work hands on a lot.

Not just for men

My husband and I both use this - I alternate with Liz Earle Hot Cloth Cleanser and find that my skin is greatly improved. My husband was having regular break outs prior to using this product and now his skin is clearer. I can’t see why it would be marketed purely at men though, as it works really well for my (hopefully unmanly) combination skin.

Why Is My Skincare Gendered

Cleans my skin without drying it, which is surprising since it lathers and foams. I hope it's not discontinued since Clinique has a habit of doing that. I switched to using this after they nixed the Clinique City Block Charcoal Cleansing Gel. It's the exact same formulation but "for men." Pleasantly fragrance free.

Charcoal face wash

Face always feels so clean after using this. Slightly drying hence the 4 stars.

Prefers original face wash better

Partner liked this but finds it dries his skin out if uses more than once a week he prefers the original face wash feels that moisturizers skin more.

Introduce To Your Man

My boyfriend did not know the power of a quality face cleaner until I introduced him to clinique. Now my boyfriend freely walks in Sephora to buy his refills and has also decided to buy the clinique eye cream too. He loves these product! This charcoal one is his fav.

City Block/ Charcoal Face Wash

So, ever since I've been running out of the City Block Charcoal Cleansing Gel, which I've been using for almost a year and half; and I couldn't find it anywhere in stores. It seems clinique has changed/repackaged? a few things recently, a few which where things I used. I kept looking until I went to a clinique specific boutique at The Bay and they told me that THIS charcoal face wash IS the previously known city block I was looking for, just repackaged. I read the ingredients, they're exactly the same. The Butylene Glycol is like 2 ingredients down where it was..but I think the effect is miniscule. Every other ingredient is there, exactly in the same order. I just wanted to put it out there, if anyone will read this :)

Impressed

I have really oily skin and this soap draws that out very well. Better than any face wash I've ever tried. Definitely recommend.

Love this face wash! Disclaimer, I am not a man, but I use this happily anyway. My husband and I share it! It's not at all drying but leaves my skin really clean.

will buy again

Love this! I bought this for my husband but I've totally stolen it. It is gentle and leaves my face super clean but without the dryness I usually get. It's also helped keep my pores clear - they're nearly invisible now.
