Editor's note
This solid cleansing balm is in a league of its own.
The consistency is quite amazing- from a solid balm, it develops into a milky cleanser in contact with water.
Definitely our favorite cleansing balm at the moment.
This blend of butter and oils will instantly melt all your make-up, including hardcore waterproof mascara and eyeliners.
We love using this balm in our nighttime routine since it removes everything with incredible ease.
Plus, the included cotton muslin upgrades the entire experience, giving you that “day at the spa” feel.
You can use it on its own or you can follow up with a second cleanser if this is your jam.
