Goodness Break-up Make-up Balm Review

This product has changed my evening makeup removing routine, for the better. I love the texture, and it's relaxing massaging the balm to remove makeup before bed. It's comforting knowing it is natural, and easily removes my makeup. As others have said, it does smell 'natural' - but I don't mind at all. It leaves my skin feeling silky too - it doesn't strip it back. Would definitely recommend.

I've liked all the Goodness products that I've tried so far. I'm also a big fan of cleansing balms and pretty devoted to Lush's Ultrabland. However, when I recently ran out and wasn't due to visit Lush for a few weeks, I eagerly picked up this from my local supermarket.

It comes in a really attractive and easy to open tin which I plan to repurpose (it's perfect for shampoo bars). Inside is a yellow, semi solid balm. It has a strong, but not unpleasant smell - hard to describe but a little bit herbal and a little bit citrusy. As per instructions, I scoop out a finger nail size blob. It quickly melts to an oil in my hands and I then massage it over my face. I can rub it into my eyes without them feeling irritated. Removed with a warm cloth (a good old-fashioned flannel is best) it removes all my makeup without a trace. It leaves my skin feeling soft and clean and not oily at all. It can leave my eyes a bit filmy which is typical of most cleansing balms.

I will definitely buy this again. It is a great price, especially for the size of the tin, and it does exactly what it says it will. I may be have become a little less devoted to my holy grail cleanser after using this!

I was lucky enough to get this lovely product in my BBBE mystery box.

It comes in a cute tin, and for some reason I love little tins, that is a lovely yellow colour with some other pastel splodges and Goodness branding. Once you screw the lid open, the product inside looks like puddle of waxy lemon sorbet! And it smells kinda like a lemony sorbet too – quite edible in fact. When you run your fingers over it, it softens very quickly and can then be very easily applied to the skin. In spite of initially feeling quite greasy, it absorbs very quickly and leaves very little residue. It can be then wiped off with a damp cloth, taking your make up and the day’s dust and dirt with it. It is not at all messy to use.

What I like about this product, and other products of its type, is that after cleansing, it can be applied lightly for moisturising, especially if have you dry mature skin like mine. It is full of gorgeous oils such as coconut, olive, sunflower seed, avocado, and chia. Which of course means, you can pack only this product for multiple purposes when you’re travelling – yay!

Personally I think this is the best of the Goodness products I’ve tried so far, and appreciate it is non-irritating and gentle on skin, like the other Goodness products. I think $20 is a fair price for this product, and I would buy it again.

AMAZING! I have used numerous make-up removal cream, wipes, you name it, Ive been there. Goodness is the best I have used so far. It is easy to apply, feels nice on your skin and smells nice as well (For a make-up remover).

I have quite dry skin and sometimes sensitive to certain products, this is safe to use on my dry and sensitive skin. I am just about out and will be defiantly getting some more very soon!

Well I totally understand why this was in the ‘staff picks BBBE! It is… ah-maz-ing!! I honestly thought the trilogy one was good, this is seriously better.

I love the tin this comes in. the pale pastel colours give it an almost slight retro look. Being tin I thought It would bend and buckle (yes I am rough) and I wouldn’t be able to screw the lid back on after a while, I can safely say I am almost at the end of the tin and it is still in good shape and the lid still screws on evenly where it should.

The balm has a very mild oil-y scent that is almost slightly citrus. I grab a small amount out (about the size of a 20 cent piece) and plaster it all over my face and press it against my eyes for 20-30 seconds to really let it soak into my stubborn mascara and eyeshadow. I love how this balm starts melting as soon as you scoop it out of the tin and there are no chunky bits left over that need more time to melt, its perfect! I notice how it’s not overly oily and greasy. I grab a warm, damp face cloth and start wiping the remnants away. It all wiped away fairly easily, except for the stubborn waterproof mascara- but then I am yet to find a product that removes it all in one swipe! I was so happy when my normally sensitive peepers didn’t sting when I put it near my eyes.

Afterwards I gently cleanse my face and find there is no residue left on my skin, over time I haven’t found it to clog my pores or break me out. (I sometimes tend to with oil cleansers)

This is definitely my favourite makeup remover it is seriously so good and I will be repurchasing it when I run out.. which Is very soon.

I was lucky enough to get sent this directly from Goodness Products, and then received another one from a beauty box woohoo!

First of all I love the packaging - I love anything that has easy access and that allows me to get however much product I want. The screw top lip tin also allows for a very safe product to travel with - no worries about spillage. Even if the lid did come off, this is a balm, so this won't spill anyway. However the balm will probably melt if you leave it in the scorching heat.

I also love how easy this product is to use. Scoop out however much product you want, in my opinion about a teaspoon is enough, rub it together in your hands (it will turn to an oily like substance) and massage your face. The oil will life any dirt and makeup then use a warm cloth to remove.

After using, my face is 100% clean. I tested this by using a makeup wipe after using the balm - not one single smidgen of makeup on the wipe. My skin is also left feeling smooth, soft and hydrated.

I love how affordable and available this is and also love that it's filled with natural ingredients. Definitely worth repurchasing.

I have literally just used this product and i think it going to become my go to make up remover.

Love the little tub which allows you to get exactly the amount you need and also makes it stand out amongst all the bottles of potions in my bathroom cupboard.

Wasn't sure what to expect when I scooped out the paste but it soon started to melt on my finger tips going a lovely velvety texture. This then was rubbed onto my dry face and the feeling was lovely! Nothing abrasive in this at all, I was kinda expecting it to be more of a rub but was very happily surprised. It definitely did it's job and when removed with a warm flannel the proof was left on the flannel not my face. It wiped off easily and left my skin feeling slimy smooth. The fragrance is very subtle and very natural.

Will definitely be using again, so glad to have got this in a Beauty box as I probably would never have tried it.

I received this in the staff picks Beauty Box, and it quickly became a regular in my night routine.

Firstly, the packaging is so pretty. It comes in a sturdy, colourful tin, that stands out and means you can get all the product out. It has a pleasant smell, I think it smells like lemons but also bananas?

It's easy to scoop the product out. It's a waxy consistency and once rubbed in turns oily. I find I don't need much to remove a full face of my "everyday" make-up, about a fingernail worth. I need a bit more if I have going out make-up on, but it removes everything and leaves my skin feeling great!

It's super easy and quick to use, and doesn't require any heavy rubbing, it's like it makes make-up just slide off! It doesn't sting or hurt my eyes in any way, and removes even the most stubborn of mascaras.

I have about a third left and will definitely be repurchasing when I run out!

With most balms i can be a bit of a skeptic!

But the goodness balm is great, i only need to apply it once for it remove most of my stubborn makeup, it also has a fresh/natural scent that isnt overpowering which is quite nice.

The main thing i love about this balm is it doesn't leave my skin feeling oily or that there is a residue left over.
