I absolutely love this cleansing balm! At the top of the jar there are a few specks of oil that take a little longer to warm up in your hands at least in my jar there was, but all of the oil melts down well if you rub your hands together well. This is a thinner feeling cleansing balm than some which I really appreciate about it. It smells so incredible but the scent is very very light, I wish it had more scent but I do appreciate that it’s not an overly powerful smell or a bad smell. This does an amazing job of removing makeup, oil, dirt, and spf and has been such a pleasure to add to my skincare routine. It says it’s a papaya enzyme cleansing balm so it’s supposed to have some aha properties, but they are very very very mild, even someone with the most sensitive skin could use this without issue, I don’t find it to be very exfoliating but I don’t mind that it isn’t. To me it just feels like a very mild cleansing balm, and even when my skin barrier is damaged and my usual products will slightly burn when my barrier is disrupted, but not this product, it doesn’t cause any burning or uncomfortable sensation even when my skin barrier is trashed. This is easily one of my favorite cleansing balms and I just purchased a backup of it because I don’t ever want to be without it. I like to follow it with the glow recipe avocado cleanser or the blueberry bounce cleanser after, but even on nights when I’m feeling lazy, I can use this cleansing balm only and as long as I rinse pretty well with lukewarm water, it doesn’t leave behind a residue of any kind at all which I very much love about this balm. Also it’s very hydrating, my skin is never dry or tight after using this it’s always just soft and clean and ready for the next step in my skincare routine.I highly recommend trying it if you’re on the fence! I’m an oily skinned girl and I find that this does not make my skin overly oily when I use it, and it doesn’t make me breakout at all which is a huge deal.
This is a solid cleansing balm! It melts down and emulsifies nicely with a nice scent. I have combination skin (pretty dry in winter) and this does not irritate or break me out.
I was surprised how much I enjoy using this cleansing balm. Other ones I tried leave a film on my skin and I need to double cleanse. Don’t need to with this
This is the holy grail for girlies who rock a full beat every day, setting sprays, & sunscreens! This was the most perfect first step to add into my makeup removing routine. The consistency is a dream. I recommend keeping it chilled & it will help add an even more relaxing step to your routine. I keep mine in their flow recipe mini fridge & it’s perfect! I follow with their avocado cleanser & my skin feels & looks phenomenal at 34 years old
Not sure if I would buy at full price; I got this on sale, 3/5 because it technically has more pros. pros- the packaging is great to experience and open It smells great It feels good on my skin and has a silky texture Cons- my skin feels tight after using It takes a long time to rub in a remove all makeup ot
It really helps get all the deep oil and makeup and NEVER makes my eyes burn like some makeup removers do. I’ve purchased this numerous times and just can’t get myself to go for another makeup removers well worth the price. to go for another makeup removers
Love this gentle cleanser for getting eye make up off
I am on my third jar now. I get itchy, dry skin from most facial washes. This one tho, is a complete game changer. It goes on smooth and creamy, and stays that way. Rinse off and pat dry. a perfect
I wouldn’t have bought this product if I knew it was recommended to use a regular cleanser afterwards. I may be ignorant, but it doesn’t clarify this in the How to Use section, so I thought it would be fine as an independent produce. Now I have to go buy another cleaner, and probably won’t even use this one.
