Hmm, i tried this product yesterday.

The Smell isn't very pleasant but still acceptable, the "feel" while washing your face is very good..is really like putting charcoal and there's a lot of benefits for charcoal face wash...

After Washing, i feel that my face is very clean. I touch my face and the skin is very soft and like just undergone SPA TREATMENT.

well, Thanks Zampleman for such a wonderful product! :)

I like the fact that Metholatum Charcoal Facial Wash foams easily with a pea sized amount. Which means, one tube indeed goes a long long way.

Also, your skin wouldn't feel overly tight and dry after a wash, which probably can be to the inclusion of olive oil and cypress tree essense.

While I would always vote for a fragrance free wash, the use of this has been kept rather minimal, so one should be able to indulge in it without much irritation.

Overall, a well-thought out product, I would say!

I like this facial wash because it doesn't dry my skin.And the charcoal inside helps to make my skin less oily.And the amazing part is it work for me too as i do have quite sensitive skin.It gives my skin that very clean feeling without overly dry.

When I first opened the package, had some mixed feelings as the overall outlook of the product is quite weird, black? I have never used dark colored faical wash product. But once you started using it, effective is all I can say, face stays clean and cool even after hours. Awesome product.

Thank you ZAMPLEMAN for the speedy. Received the samples within a mere few days; was so much faster than expected.

Re wrap and gave the zamples to my wife as a little surprise for her.

And yes, was she surprised that I gave her a Man product.

She shared the zamples with me and we used it together. What romantic moments =)

She has very sensitive and thin skin and does not use over the counter products.

We keep our fingers cross :x

A few washes and both our faces are squeaky clean.

No tight feelings after the wash, unlike the other drugstore cleansers.

Face remains fresh and clean, not even a mist of oily feel on the face after we wake up the next day.

Not only our face feels good, our relationship is even better.

My wife finally appreciates and acknowledge my effort.

My effort in getting her the right and useful product.

We even went to Bugis Watson to top up our purchases.

Not only for ourselves, but as a Christmas gift for our dearest friends and relatives close at heart.

Good things are meant to be shared, isn't it?

When I grab this sample, I thought this would be just like most other products, nothing special, however i was given a pleasant surprise and found it rather good for oily skin. In general, good packaging and nice smell. Recommended for all!
This the 4th day I am using the cleanser, it works on my combination skin. It worth trying! Most of time after cleansing, my face would feel oily again after 30mins. With the Mentholatum Charcoal wash, the oil on my face has dropped approx 40%. What amazed me was that I did not put on any moisturizer after that and I do not feel any dryness and in fact it seems to balance the moisture on my skin naturally. Overall results: Less sebum, less oily, keep blackheads away and retained moisture on the face.
When i first tried Mentholatum Charcoal, it was really amazing! After the wash, i felt really refreshed and cleaned. As an atheletic, i use Mentholatum Charcoal everyday after training to remove the oil and dirts on my face, and it really work effectively for me!

After using it everyday, my facial complexion is much better than before.
The colour of this charcol facial wash is very unique, most of the other cleansers are in white/transparent. This makes us really curious to try it out. Face feels really refreshing and squeaky clean after usage. This wash was effective for removing oil, leaving my face clean and clear. There's a hint of mint which isnt too strong. Face did not feel oily even after an entire day outside. It didn't give me a tightening effect like other oil products. Its resonably priced too. Overall, this is a great product which does it job perfectly well while giving you a cool minty sensation. Recommended.
I like this product since it cleans my skin. I initially ah a sachet of it during army marathon, but thought it was too little to know if the product is good or not. Surprised when I found that Mentholatum is providing the 3 day trial pack on zampleman.

After using this, I like this product alot, especially when I am outfield. Even though it does not removed the camourflage, but it does remoce the oil and greese for me. Effective product from my point of view.

Since this is smell free, it is a plus for me. Dont like to use products with certain fragrance, abit kuniang(yes yes, I am too old fashioned..but come on, I am in army).

The greyish color is also very stylo milo.. like it alot.And with the lifestyle I have, the charcoal certainly comes handy.
Great for washing away the sebum on skin. I have very very oily skin and it works very well for me.
I like the foamy effect of the facewash and the color too.

However, it could be slightly dehydrating and requires a good moisturiser after using the charcoal facewash.

Good facewash and probably the better one on the market comparing the charcoal effect that it has.
I shared the generous amount of 3 day trial pack with my brother who has oily skin also. We both agree that this product is very effective. In fact, we also like the packaging alot as it comes in cool blacking grey color, similar to the colors of its content.

The fact that it can remove the toxins from your skin is a bonus, especially for both of us who rides the motor. For him, he is a mechanics, and imagine how good this product is if the dirt on his face could also be removed after a hard day's work. (though he needed to clean his face twice to be clean lah - some commercial brands wont even be able to do it after 10 washes - or so he claims).

We like it smell free since we can use our own fragrance after that. There is no conflict for the smell in this case, so we both agree it is a plus point.

He was actually so impressed that he went out to buy the charcoal facewash. (we haven joined when the 1 month trial was going on - darn). Thats how good this product is! So we are giving it a 5 star!
The charcoal facewash effectively cleaned away not only the dirt on my face but also the oil for me. I like this product alot in terms of its effectiveness.

The foam color reminds me of those japanese volcanic mud clay, and upon lathering and application on face, it feels warm. So it this aspect, the pschological impact is immense. Feels like those super expensive volcanic facewash.

This product is awesome in my viewpoint! Looking forward to hopefully using their srub and trying.
After trying the product, my face feels cleansed and yet not very dry.
Plus it is certainly very refreshing to actually use "charcoal" to clean your face! New and great product from Mentholatum.
It's my first time trying this out from the 3-day pack. After using the charcoal face wash, my skin feels nice and supple! It's amazing unlike compared to some of the other face wash which tends to leave a dry feeling after washing. It keeps my skin feeling fresh after long hours at work too! As a student without much income, this certainly is a very efficient item!

tried this b4.. normal avrage cleanser.. mild on skin, and good for oily skin
To get straight to the point, after trying out the zamples for 3 days, i could feel a difference in my skin, especially my nose, which tends to be more oily than the other parts of my face area. The charcoal has an effect on my skin, keeping my nose oily-free for more than 4 hours (when i was out).
I love it.
