charcoal rescue masque

All-in-one treatment masque detoxifies, brightens and invigorates normal to oily skin. Fast-acting, easy-to-remove formula rescues tired, lackluster or dull skin. Activated Binchotan Charcoal powerfully adsorbs impurities while Sulfur promotes skin cell turnover for dramatically brighter skin. Volcanic Ash, Sea Silt, Bamboo Extract and alpha hydroxy acids further accelerate skin brightening with dual-action exfoliation. Niacinamide helps reduce congestion and calm the skin while Chilean Wild Mint helps refine pores.

The first time I use this product it reduced my pores in half!! It made my face a little red but I have a little sensitive skin, it went shortly after though. BEST product I've ever used!! I will ALWAYS use this product for now on.

Do not buy this product

Was pretty excited to try this yet totally let down. The minute I put it on it felt tightening and stingy I assumed this was normal but after 1-2 minutes it started feeling hot and almost a painful stinging. Once I removed it my face felt like it was on fire and really red.

Badly burnt my skin

Recived as a sample and used as per directions, leave on for 7-10 minutes. After about 5 minutes I started to feel it really burning and washed it off. My whole face under it was bright red and burned. For reference, I have used many full strengths masks and peels and don't consider myself to have sensitive skin.

I'm obsessed

Not only does this masque help with my breakouts, but it provides excellent exfoliation. The texture is very much like receiving microdermabrasion treatment, so if your skin is quite sensitive it is probably not for you. I LOVE this product and use it 3-4 times per week. My skin is clearer and feels so soft.

I love this brand but I am very unsure about this product. Used it today and after following the instructions, my face was left red, looked burnt and was tight and stingy. Having red some blogs and reviews, it seems this product is a problem. I would like to ask why had this product not been recalled or adapted ?

Is this the same as the skin refining mask? Is that product discontinued?

Tag

Hello, Thank you for your interest in Dermalogica. Yes, Skin Refining Mask was discontinued. Charcoal Rescue Mask is one of our most potent masks. It detoxes the skin with Charcoal, it brightens with Lactic Acid and it exfoliates with volcanic ash. Kind Regards, Bernadette

Bernadette

How much of this product should be used at a time? I am not sure if the layer I applied to my face is thick enough. It seems rather thin and quick to dry and I don't know if that's how it should be or if I should kind of cake it on.

Savannah

Hello, Thank you for your interest in Dermalogica. Try a slightly thicker layer of product. Kind Regards, Bernadette

Bernadette

My tube says to leave on for 7-10 minutes. Why are the directions different now? Will leaving it on for longer than 5 minutes damage my skin?

tatopae

Hello, Thank you for your interest in Dermalogica. It depends on whether or not your skin is sensitive. Try it for 5 minutes first. Kind Regards, Bernadette

How long do you keep masque on before lightly massaging? Your website states after 3 to 5 minutes. The 40ml (1.3 US FL OZ) tube I have states 7 to 10 minutes. Clarification is appreciated....thank you.

MC

Hello, Thank you for your interest in Dermalogica. 3-5 minutes is the correct amount of time. Kind Regards, Bernadette

Hi, I applied the facial mask with my finger tips and am very pleased with the results. I washed my hands and left the mask on for 10 min before washing off. My face is clear but my finger tips are stained black and dry. I can't manage to remove the stain. What should I do?

sara

Hi Sara, Thank you for your interest in Dermalogica. It can help to wash with soap and use a nail brush. Kind Regards, Bernadette

Can you use with your retinal products?

Ann

Hello Ann, Thank you for your interest in Dermalogica. Charcoal Rescue Masque is an exfoliating masque. When using retinol, please do not use exfoliants as they will sensitize the skin. Kind Regards, Bernadette

Is the charcoal rescue masque meant to remove impurites and exfoliate all in one product. I'm alittle confused by what "all in one" means. I use the the gentle cream exfoliant followed by the skin refining mask. Is this a substitue for that since its "all in one". I have purchased it and am not sure how to use it in my current routine. Also, you might want to consider changing your product description. It's confusing and it appears many are having questions about to use it with their existing regimen.

LW

Hello, Thank you for your interest in Dermalogica. If you use Charcoal Rescue Masque, it would not be necessary or recommended to use an exfoliant beforehand. Charcoal Rescue Masque is a masque with exfoliating ingredients. Kind Regards, Bernadette

How often should one use this product? Once per week? Once every other?

kdcatching

Hello, Thank you for your interest in Dermalogica. You can use this masque 1-4 times per week, after cleansing and before toner. If you are more sensitive, once a week is perfect. Please do not use it with any other exfoliants. I personally prefer to use it at night. Kind Regards, Bernadette

Hi,i am a dermalogica user of several products for many years and the charcoal rescue masque was given as a sample size by my dermalogica store at LA. I have used it after cleaning my face and left for 7-8 minutes and then massaging with wet hands washed it. My face was red after washing, after 15-20 minutes it was much better then I put my moisturizer. Today it is ok but I just feel a bit hot. I didn't know the exfoliant effect before I use it. As I am blonde and have a sensitive skin which can be red very easily, I would like to ask if there is any warning for sun after using this masque, due to its exfoliant effect. I am wearing a suncare cream but I just wanted to be make sure as I will go on a holiday now. I am a bit concerned now after reading the negative comments with the redness effect. And I have one more question,as we apply this to clean face, there is no need to use a cleanser after, isn't it? Thanks

gunes

Hello, Thank you for your feedback and interest in Dermalogica. It is typical for Charcoal Rescue Masque to flush the skin of certain individuals. For instance, my husband and I use the same bottle of Charcoal Rescue Masque, and his skin becomes red and mine does not. The flushing should not cause any discomfort. Charcoal Rescue Masque is an exfoliating masque, so be sure to not exfoliate on the same day as using it. It detoxes the skin, and is not for sensitive skin. You can use SPF daily, especially after exfoliating. Finally, you can apply Charcoal Rescue Masque to clean skin, after cleansing.

about how many applications can you get from one tube?

K

Hi K, Thank you for your interest in Dermalogica. This product can be used 1-3 times per week for ten minutes. Apply a thick layer. As with most masques, there are about 8-15 uses per bottle. Kind Regards, Bernadette
