It dries out my face. Not great if you have dry skin already. Smells good and a great brand. Love the eco-friendliness and the ethical stances.

After being suggested to try this product, I found that it did exactly what charcoal does, which is to draw impurities from pores. Normally, I don't usually use charcoal as I don't like how to...

I found this soap just a little too harsh, even on my very oily, prone to acne skin. After using this, my skin always felt a little tingly almost, a little wrung out. I suppose it controlled my...

Oily-combo and acne prone skin. Used this as a second cleanser, took away that “oil” film nicely but really stripped my skin. I thought it felt nice and clean until I tried something more “gentle”...

Honesty this is the best face soap I've ever used on my skin. My face gets only, and I do get a few spots here and there. I use the coal face soap in the morning and at night. It keeps the oil on...

I never leave reviews. But Lush's Coalface deserves to be praised. I suffer from oily, acne prone skin. I get bad cystic, hormonal acne as well. I'm 32 years old and it is an ongoing battle....

When my skin is misbehaving I always turn to Coal Face to get it back to normal. I use Coal Face when my skin is breaking out. It cleans out my pores and reduces my acne and also helps counteract...

I had been looking for a good facial cleanser that kept my age in mind. (I'm not the noxema girl anymore if you know what I mean.) I was already an avid fan of LUSH, and the coal face only...

As much as I enjoy the LUSH bath bombs and bubble bars, their facial products are a no for me. I bought this because I thought based on their advertising for acne prone and oily skin that I should...

I bought this because I wear a hairpiece and this removes oils from the skin very well. It helps the adhesive to stick to my skin and when I remove my hairpiece, it doesn't have grease/oil on it.

Do not buy this. It has too much fragrance (and yet still smells disgusting?) to be anything but irritating for your skin. Bar cleansers have the capacity to break you out because of the...
