melts away waterproof makeup
PostedOctober 6, 2020
If you wear makeup every day like I do, it’s a challenge to take it off at night. Well not anymore. This stuff is pure gold. It took me a little bit to get used to the texture. It’s like rubbing coconut oil on your face, but less greasy. I use this nightly and don’t have a single cotton ball of gunk afterward.
I switched from foaming cleansers to this cleansing balm and my skin loves it. It easily and gently removes all makeup and rinses clean. A little goes a long way.
Clinique products have always been a hit or miss for me, but this offering from the brand has completely exceeded my expectations. It's such an easy and effective makeup remover to use...I scoop out a small amount of the solid balm and dab it around my (dry) face and gently massage it in. I then spend about 30 seconds working it into my face. Whether foundation, eyeshadow or waterproof mascara, there doesn't seem to be anything this baby doesn't dissolve! Once I've done that, I then rinse it off, no other cleanser required. Even if I use a toner afterwards, the cotton pad almost always comes off clean, rarely is there anything more than a faint trace on the pad. The balm has a texture like coconut oil - when it's solid and it quickly dissolves at skin temperature. You get a good amount of product (3.8 oz) for the price, which is around $30 USD. There's no stinging with this. My eyes often water with cleansers and makeup removers, but doesn't react to this when I rub it into my eye area to remove eye makeup. The formula itself is as basic as they come, with one ingredient I always like to see in a product: Vitamin E. Whether it's that or one of the others, I don't know, but my face never feels dry after using this, and if anything more hydrated and comfortable. And above all, super clean! -> My ‘Nordstrom Beauty Top 7 must-have list’ (My 7 favorite beauty products of all time, focusing mainly on my purchases at Nordstrom) <- < 1.
