Dark Angels

I use this on my face and arm pits in the shower, as I find it helps remove oil and then also any BO I have for a fresh smell. I moved to vegan deodorant which isn't always the greatest, so this helps me feel fresh and clean and keeps my oily face fresh looking. Only con is to make sure you use a flannel when wiping off, as some black marks might remain.

this product is like medicine for skin, so if you need it enough youll be willing to ignore the black left. i kinda thought it was fun, being a blond; it boosted radience. lasts longer than most of their cleansers, but it is serious stuff! so glad i had "let the good times roll" to use on my skin after dark angels, because it had become sensitive; i barely made it through a big pot and little pot of dark angels. helped clear up sun damage with beauty sleep, serum, and skin drink. had to use lotion with it at all times. hopefully i wont need it again, but works wonders for troubled skin and sun damage if you use it right.

It stained my skin and is very hard too take off. Was not a cheap product.

I have slight rosacea on my cheeks and used herbalism for years so I thought this would be a good cleanser. It's not. It stained my cheeks black and it was so abrasive I couldn't feel my face. It made my rosacea ten times worse. I gave it a real shot not wanting to give up too soon but I couldn't. Probably a great product for people with normal skin but sensitive skin users like myself maybe should try something else

I didn't care for the smell. I found the product hard to use, in terms of its consistency. Worst of all, it left a black oily film on my skin.

Honestly, I love this product. I use it exclusively for a face exfoliant two to three times a week. The best way to use this product is to use it before washing your face or body or else you will have dark residue on your skin. The benefits outweigh the cons in this situation though as it keeps my acne prone skin clear.

The charcoal gets everywhere and clogs my pores.

This is a decent product that I would recommend to people that like like having soft skin. The catch is that it leaves a black residue that is very hard to get off.

Shame on me for not reading more reviews I guess, but I also couldn't get the black residue off my skin without scrubbing vigorously. The product feel was nice and made my skin feel great, but I didn't love the smell and I looked like I just came from a coal mine/had extensive bruising on my back. Yikes! Unfortunately I can't use the rest of this :(

I've been using Dark Angels for a very long time now, and I'm never disappointed. The charcoal color is aesthetically pleasing, the exfoliating sugar crystals work great, and the scent is herbalicious. In spite of the recommendation for oily skin, it works great with my normal olive complexion, leaving it matte and supple, and I'm a dude, dude!. It will leave you with dark circles under your eyes if you don't scrub it all off, but I'm a weirdo who likes that sort of look. Great gift for your vegan goth friend. Get yourself a little pot of magic!
