Too harsh
"This cleanser was too harsh for my skin. It left my skin feeling very dry, and it actually caused me to break out. My reaction might be an outlier though, I do have sensitive skin!"

The Size?
"It’s a decent product I have been using Carbon Theory products since 2020 and I have loved everything about it. The only downside to this is the size I loved the original size which was 200ml but now it feels like there’s not much in the bottle and it doesn’t last long! Please bring the 200ml back."
Purged my skin like a MF
"Unfortunately the instructions on the back aren’t clear as to how often to use it. Its contains strong chemical exfoliants and should be used once / twice a week with not other aha/bha toners/leave-ons on the same day (unless your skin is brave) also no acids treatments after.. only skin barrier building stuff( niacinamide) and moisturise. Before I realised the way.. it was too late.. the damage was done. My skin purged so bad I thought I was breaking out and picked at it. I had never had this much red spots on my forehead since I was a teen."
"This, along with the s charcoal cleanser have improved my oiliness and skin texture. Be careful to alternate, as to not dry out the skin too much over time. But this is a great product. But i see that they are replacing 200ml with 100ml and 150ml bottles. That's something I'll keep in mind when i repurchase. However, a little goes a long way, so i expect it's to also honour the integrity & effectiveness of the ingredients. I prefer the liquid to the bar soaps, personally, so I'm glad to have given them a try."
Burnt my eyelids
"I read and understood when it said not to put onto your eyelids but this was impossible not to touch when rinsing off your face. My eyelids were still inflamed 3 days later therefore I wouldn’t recommend unfortunately"
"I feel like it’s good at cleaning, but causes me to be very red for a couple hours after use, and burns"
Noticeable difference in the quality
"Noticeable difference in the quality of my skin, no irritation at all"
