Melting Balm to Oil

I'm 39 years old and I only use cleansing balms on my face. No soap, no astringent, no masks, just cleansing balm. For 3 years I've used Elemis, but it's just too expensive to contain purchasing in this economy. So I researched a more affordable option. I've been using this 2 weeks and I absolutely love it. I only wear makeup a couple times a year (and when I do I use coconut oil for first cleanse then cleansing balm to finish), so I can't vouch for how this works at emulsifying makeup. But as a general cleanser for gals 35 and up, I adore this stuff. No breakouts, no rash, pleasant smell and feel, leaves my skin supple and hydrated. Such a fantastic alternative to Elemis.

The absolute best make-up remover & cleanser. I have tried many!

The packaging is great and it even comes with a little spatula, to scoop the product out of the jar. A little of this stuff goes a LONG way, which makes it super economical. It took a very small amount to completely melt off all my makeup, including my eye makeup. It’s very light and not heavy/greasy feeling at all. The texture feels and smells amazing. The consistency is perfect and breaks down to a light oil easily. Adding a little water and the product rinses off like a dream.

This has a light pleasant orangeish smell. It would likely last longer if it came with a spatula to mix and scoop the product with. Around the edges of the jar the product tends to come out in clumps. Its not possible to dissolve the clumps, therefore its wasted product. This is a slightly thicker balm, but washes off clean. If you get even one drop of water in the jar, it turns to a cloudy liquid that will continue to liquify the balm. Decent value for the money. I'm highly allergic to most products, but didn't react to this one. It took off all of my makeup, but I not my waterproof mascara. With the vast variety of makeup removal balms on the market, I won't be repurchasing this one.

This is my first ever cleansing balm because of wanted to into double cleansing recently. Takes off my makeup so efficiently and once you rinse off, It's like it was never there. It literally melts away the makeup! The texture is like creamy sorbet and the scent is light and sweet, but refreshing. The sorbet dissolves into the cleansing oil and I can almost feel it getting all the dirt pulled up off my skin. When rinsing, the oil turns into a milky pink colored liquid that washes off easily and DOES NOT LEAVE YOU FEELING TIGHT OR DRIED OUT. This ingredient list is gentle enough for everyone and the scent is light enough not to irritate skin or annoy the nose.

I purchased this as a less expensive replacement for my usual brand because it got great reviews.Pros: It’s effective for makeup removal and leaves my skin soft and smooth.Cons: My vision gets blurry if I use it on near my eyes and probably leaves a residue on contact lenses. I dislike the scent, not because it smells bad but because it’s fairly strong and I prefer products that are fragrance free.Takeaway: It’s good value for the money (got it on sale) and I would purchase again (on sale) because the pros outweigh the cons, and it works well as first step in double cleansing routine. My eyes still get blurry when not wearing contacts but that goes away after the second step.

This balm has a great smooth texture. This is the best oil cleanser I’ve ever used. There’s a lot of slip but it doesn’t feel overly oily. It leaves my skin feel so soft and comforted and takes off all waterproof makeup. I don’t think I’ll ever go back to liquid oil based cleansers or any cleansers I have to wipe off ever again. I love this because I can just rub it on and jump in the shower, removing a step from my skincare routine. Love this scent like citrus and fruity! It feels like a spa treatment every time I use it it makes me excited to takeoff my make up!

I am very satisfied with this new cleansing balm from the Saturday skin. I have a very sensitive skin and it is usually super hard to find a product that doesn’t irritate my skin and this is it! This is my 3rd successful Sunday Skin purchase. The packaging and container look so cute and it comes with a spatula. The balm melts into fingers and feels silky on the skin. The smell is some kind of citrus, not overwhelming at all. Skin after the cleanse feels smooth and doesn’t have that dry skin stiffness I would feel after other products. I recommend it!
