Not what I thought it was

This leaves your face feeling smooth but it's not what I thought it was going to be. When I saw "charcoal" in the name, I assumed it would have some exfoliate in it but it doesn't. It also has a weird smell.

Love this

I LOVE this cleanser. It doesn't dry out my skin or make my eyes burn. I have re purchased this many times. I have oily sensitive skin.

Lightweight Gel

This is a lightweight gel that, while gentle enough for everyday, is not quite strong enough for me. I have super oily skin and live in super-humid Florida, and City Block Purifying Charcoal Clay Mask + Scrub seem to work better for me. Maybe be better for less oily skin.

Excellent Cleanser!

Got this for my daughter. She loves it, gentle enough for her daily cleansing routine and cleans deep enough to leave her skin super clean. Her acne got significant better, less break outs for sure.

Not that purifying

The name of this cleanser if kind of misleading When I saw word "purifying" I was hoping this to clean really well/ have a deep clean effect However this cleanser is rather gentle I would say, and is suitable for daily use. Won't leave your skin dry & tight feeling after cleansing

We're glad you reached out - and you're right! This pore-deep detoxifying cleansing gel is gentle enough for everyday use. For a deeper level of clean, try pairing this cleanser with our Clinique Sonic System with City Block Purifying Cleansing Brush Head.

Gentle Deep Cleanse, Love it!

I am so happy with this product, within only one use, this product significantly cleared my skin and left it feeling comfortable. I typically find deep cleansers leave my skin feeling very tight and uncomfortable so I was really happy to notice the difference. I follow with exfoliator 1.0 and moisture surge, and this combo has made a huge difference in my skin within only a week! Perfect cleanser for those who need a deep clean without the drying effect!

Perfect for my Type 3 Face

Have been using this cleanser every night for at least a year and a half. Love it and am back to purchase more. It's gentle, non- drying, and I believe it's helped keep my combination oily skin clear.
