Garnier Pure Charcoal Black Tissue Mask | Review

09:00

If there is one thing I love the most, it is a nice pamper night with wine, chocolate, a good tv show or film and a face mask! If you have been following my blog for a while now then you would know that I am very much into my skincare and making sure I can get the most out of it. I have been a huge fan of Garnier and their skincare products, I also love their Moisture Bomb and Hydra Bomb Tissue Masks, so when I was in Superdrug a few weeks back I had to pick one of these up to try it out - The Pure Charcoal Black Tissue Mask.

The Garnier Pure Charcoal Black Tissue Mask is a thin, all in one sheet mask that is perfect for all skin types, even if you have very sensitive skin but is mainly targeted towards people who have enlarged pores. The mask itself is infused with serum that has been enriched with Black Algae Extract, LHA and Hyaluronic Acid to make it an ultra hydrating, pore tightening and purifying mask and it has been said to reduce shine which is perfect if you have a more oily skin type. When applying the mask you simply remove it from the packaging - that has serum inside - and pop it on your face, making sure you adjust it to sit correctly and comfortably on your face. Once applied, you can pop your feet up and have a cup of tea and wait 15-20 minutes for it to work its magic. When the mask is on you will notice that the mask is drenched in serum and I actually really enjoy this because once you remove the mask you are left with plenty of serum that you can rub into your face until it has been absorbed and personally, my skin is definitely getting all of the benefits. There is a slight scent to this mask but it is a lovely fresh smell that is not too strong when it's on your face. The mask stays nice and cool on your face which keeps it refreshing and it also doesn't tingle either, which is perfect for me because I have such sensitive skin.

I got some really good results from using this mask and I have to say I am very impressed. My skin felt super moisturised afterwards and definitely not oily or shiny at all and my skin was really soft and smooth. I have to admit I didn't see a massive difference or improvement in my pores after using this, however, the next day, when applying my makeup I did notice that my pores weren't as visible as they normally are, so I would say that it does tackle those annoying pores. I am a huge fan of this face mask and will definitely be picking up more to keep on hand. They are super easy to apply and they don't slip off or make a huge mess and for just a few pounds in Boots and Superdrug, you cannot go wrong.
