Review on Erno Laszlo Charcoal Face Cleanser - Refreshing Double Cleanse To Reduce Pores 3.4 Fl Oz by Roberta Gonia

This is a strange looking container of facial cleanser with some dark things floating in the goo that is the facial cleanser. It is a gel type stuff that comes in a pump that works well and makes it easy to pump out just what is needed.Once it is out on your fingers you just gently rub it around on your face. At first it lathers a tiny bit but then fades to nothing and barely feels like anything more than water on the skin. It doesn't have much of a scent, at least nothing that is very noticeable and certainly nothing objectionable.Once it is washed off, it leaves a strange feeling but it is not like any cleanser I've ever used. My face doesn't feel clean or refreshed at all. It does feel soft but also oily. I don't think the oil is from the cleanser but maybe it is this stuff drawing oil out of my skin after the product is washed off. That may in fact be exactly what this product is designed to do. If so, and that appeals to you, then maybe you will like this product. To me, it doesn't feel like a facial cleanser and I don't particularly like the way it does make my face feel. After using this, I feel the need to use something else to wash my face again to make my skin feel more like normal.This product may be doing exactly what it is supposed to do the way it is supposed to do it. It is not at all appealing to me, especially not at this price. I've take a cheap DOVE facial cleanser over this any day. Something like that does make my skin feel clean and has a bit of a moisturizing effect. This is just not my cup of tea.
