Q: Hi. Target lists this as a cruelty free item, but that isn't indicated anywhere on the product packaging for this particular product. Which is it? Thank you.

Q: I was also wondering does this get rid of blemishes and dark spots?

submitted by j - 5 years ago
  • A: Hey! Our Deep Pore Charcoal cleanser is great for deep cleaning oily skin. If you are looking for a cleanser specifically for blemishes we recommend our Charcoal Acne Clearing Cleanser or Witch Hazel Pore Clarifying Cooling Cleanser because they contain salicylic acid. Hope this helps!

submitted by Blondee - 5 years ago

Q: Hi, I am wondering if this facial cleanser can be used twice daily (morning and night) or if it is too harsh for that. If it is not recommended to use twice daily, is there a lighter face wash that can be paired with it to use at night? Thanks!

submitted by Holly - 7 years ago
  • A: Hi, Holly. We recommend using this cleanser once a day if you have normal to oily skin. If you have very oily or acne prone skin, try using it twice a day. If you experience any redness or irritation, reduce it to once a day or every other day. For a cleanser to use in between, we recommend a lighter wash that will remove makeup as well. We like the CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser. Hope this helps!

    Works fine as a facewash, but I purchased specifically as a cruelty free alternative to my usual face wash. If this is important to you, then don't purchase. Target, you should remove the cruelty free marketing from your Biore products. https://ethicalelephant.com/is-biore-cruelty-free-vegan/

    Not everyone has "Oily Skin". Not sure why Target stopped stocking the Original Biore Charcoal face wash with this one. This product is horrible. I got a breakout and my face doesn't feel clean. Please get the original back. Used it for years and never had an issue. I dont know how this has 4 stars.

    Ivy Lynn - 10 months ago, Verified purchaser
    This product is terrible. I didn't know they are allowed to put acrylates in a FACE wash. I broke out like crazy because I am allergic to acrylates and I got this without knowing they put those chemicals in here. Terrible product that did more damage to my skin. I had clear skin and now I'm still healing from a full on breakout. Don't buy cheap crap like this especially if you have an allergy or sensitive skin. I would put 0 stars if that was an option.

    I used it twice, and, granted, I have somewhat sensitive skin, but the scent of this face wash was incredibly overpowering for my preference. Furthermore, it felt like it was stripping the skin from face after each time I tried to use it.

    I’ve been using this facial cleanser for years and it’s been my holy grail! Recently they’ve changed their packaging and I’m assuming the formula as well because it has an awful smell now and doesn’t seem to be leaving my skin feeling the same anymore. I loved using this product so it kinda sucks that they ruined it

    I love this face wash. I’ve used it for years. However, the last bottle I bought ( I bought two at the same time) smelled very different. Almost like a floral scent, but not a good one. I opened the second bottle thinking it was just an isolated issue and the second bottle smelled this same. It’s awful, even my kids said it smelled off. If this is the new version, I am going to have find a new product.

    I did not intend on buying this product but I saw there was a good deal at the time for it on the Target app and I love the powers of charcoal so I thought I’d give it a chance and hope to be pleasantly surprised…Nope. This wrecked my skin creating more clogged pores than doing the opposite like the packaging claims. I gave it an honest run for 2 weeks as well. It may feel like at first the charcoal is working from the tingling but that’s instead from the added menthol (mint) — a cheap way out from using more of the expensive charcoal ingredient.

    I've tried it all (cerave, cetaphil, and many others). This is the best salicylic face cleanser I've ever used. My routine - I cleanse with this product once a night (any more is too drying for me), then I moisturize. It has been a month now, and my acne is finally under control, and my pores are the cleanest I have ever seen! My two cents - This product has a cooling sensation, so make sure your skin barrier is not compromised before using this product. This could potentially lead to more skin issues, and you will end up hating this cleanser and never over cleanse. Keep it simple, stay consistent, give it time, and moisturize with a non comedogenic moisturizer.

    The menthol being strong doesnt bother me. I actually like it. It's pretty refreshing. But the cleanser just does nothing for my skin at all. My pores are not any cleaner or tighter. Skin isnt smoother. Ive had better products.
