Daiso Charcoal Mask - Personal Review

As we all know, when you go to Daiso, chances are you might not be able to resist the temptation for buying anything. Here in Australia, everything is AUD$2.80 which I think is rather expensive comparing to Malaysia at MYR 5 (AUD 1.60) and in Singapore its a SGD$2 (AUD 1.60 +/-) as I recall. So you can do the math, its quite a rip off at times.

Anyway, there are heaps of this Charcoal Mask in shelves of all Daiso's that I have every been to. At least 15 different branches. I decided to give it a try. I think I might have made a rather lousy purchase on some points.


 This is what the product looks like. Cute in a tube. Fairly simple to use, just apply on your face and avoid your eyes and eyebrows, parts with hair if possible.


My own review:
1. This mask smells like 'STINKY ASS PEE' like what you smell on the staircases of carparks, lifts, alleyways. Freaking hard to take in. I do not know if I have bought a defect product. It FUCKING STINKS.

2. My poor husband was my test subject and he had to sacrifice his smelling senses and he was complaining all throughout the time. Usually we just 'get used' to the smell but this mask...NO! It follows u even after you have washed it off your face...your nails smell too.

3. It does it's job of stripping off black/white heads...and it also give u a free hair removal on your face...Saves the trip for threading. It hurts! even more on a men who shaves and never plucks any hair.

4. Easy to peel off.

5. Very very drying product. I have read other people's reviews and alot of people have said that it does dry out the skin and thank god we didn't get an outbreak.

6. After removal of the black mask, your skin will feel tingly and a bit itchy. Maybe due to the stripping of dry skin, hair, dirt, gunk and so on.

Will I use it again?

Only in emergencies...which I am not sure of what sort. OR a great punishing tool if your man pissed u off.


Hair off 


Left a red patch on the side cheeks. Very dry.

Hi Steffi,

I actually bought it in MElbourne's Daiso.

Everything is AUD 2.80 which is almost double of KL's Daiso RM5.
