I actually think these are a good product. But using them, personally, was a big issue. Each time I went to use one I messed up the release and needed a second attempt. Such a shame. Maybe some instru... See more

I bought the charcoal soap for my teenager daughter and she said it works quite effectively. She also loves the Hypa dart patches.

I am really happy with my Carbon Theory journey so far! I first used their charcoal bar years ago and loved it and now that I’m going through another patch of adult acne, I’m finding their other produ... See more

This is a lovely cleansing water

This is a lovely cleansing water, It has an oil on the top of the water part but once you shake the bottle and put it on there is no greasy feel. It clears make up and spf really well and leaves the skin moist and clean. I really like this water and I think it will be my choice going forward.

Charcoal and Tea tree cleansing bar

Best soap I've ever used. I've battled cystic acne forever (I'm 59yrs old).
Since using this daily my skin is incredibly soft and my cysts are becoming nonexistent- Best part I haven't felt any new cysts emerging 🥰

Carbon Theory. Anti Acne

Carbon Theory - Soap & Moisturiser
These are excellent products.
The soap cleared the acne of my young daughter where every other product over years had failed including observing hygiene to the point of changing pillow cases every night.
The moisturiser with Vit E & Tea Tree oil simply consolidated every remnant of acne.
I've stocked it in case the product line fails.
Brilliant line of products which somehow is not being properly advertised or the Ads are being suppressed by the big names.

Boots rejected my feedback which indicates that the big names are out to get it off the market.

I truly hope this product line succeeds against the big names. We can do it by our feedbacks. Folks, let us give true & correct feedback so the customers prevail.

Skin feels nice

Put 4 stars as haven’t seen any difference yet, been using about a week so hopefully see some soon. My skins feels so good after using the face cleanser. I find the moisturiser doesn’t soak in to my skin very well, but I just pat it in. Ordering was easy and came within a few days

I bought this for my Autistic son

I bought this for my Autistic son, he's been suffering for several years with Acne and we have tried loads of other eco brands. My son is sensitive to SLS's so stuff from GP was a definite no no.
He's been using the Salicylic Acid face wash and wow what a difference it's made. His skin is clearer and now when he shaves he no longer has red bleeding acne all over his face. This stuff has been a game changer for him, plus the smell isn't overpowering. As this too can be a major issue with Acne face washes, too strong a perfume and he won't then even try them.

So far so good

So far so good. I have only been using the cleansing bar and day serum for a week (hence the 4 stars) and I have to say I have noticed a reduction in redness, skin texture has improved and my spots have reduced. I will keep using these two products for sure. Fantastic value for money. I have used more expensive products and they have not worked as well. I also have sensitive skin and have had no adverse reactions to these products. Would highly recommend.
