Was excited to try this and couldn't wait for it to arrive. Being that activated charcoal products seem to be one of the new beauty fads, I wanted to give its whirl. I have pretty dry skin with almost zero pimples or blemishes. The product applies well and had a very "refreshing" smell and feel. Tingly... reminded me of mint. Used the product again on night 2. Big mistake. The next day my face broke out in an all over mini pimple fest. I had them all over my face, but mostly under my lips (the perioral area). I know over-drying your skin and stripping it of its moisture barrier with harsh cleansers can actually cause more pimples so I'm pretty sure that's what happened here.    -
