Take The Day Off Instantly

I absolutely LOVE this product! With it, you are able to remove a full face of make up in no time, with only a small amount of product. The balm is a bit pricey, but a little goes a long way, so its very much worth it. This feels much nicer on the skin than face wipes or other liquid removers. Like a mini spa treatment!

Luxury in a Pottle

This product certainly lives up to it's claims. It really does transform quickly from it's solid balm state to a silky fluid. It glides onto the skin & a little goes a long way, which is just as well as it comes with a "luxury" price tag. (my pottle was $64 not the $55 RRP; I guess I should've shopped around) Never the less this product is worth it's weight in gold as it effortlessly removes all makeup & doesn't leave the skin feeling greasy afterwards. It has a very mild scent & the packaging is classy. Clinique has come up with another winner in my books. It has been added to my wish list for when I run out.

A jar of gold

I had to try it to believe it. This stuff is legendary. I first heard about pre-cleansing balms from Caroline Hirons, UK beauty guru. I gave this a go as we can't get Liz Earle PreCleansing Balm here in NZ (which is what Caroline recommends). I rubbed this lard like substance all over my face and on my eyes. Everything came off - and I wear a full face all day, including waterproof mascara. I'm astonished. No more makeup wipes/makeup remover/cotton pads. This stuff takes the whole lot off, so when I move onto cleansing, I'm ready to go. My skin is the best it's been in years, in part, I know, to this product (I follow up with Cetaphil Cleanser FYI, which I also swear by!). I will never be without this product.

Tips: Ask for a teeny sample at Farmers, they'll give you one, so you can try before you buy! Apply half a teaspoon of this with DRY fingertips to a DRY face. Massage it in, rinse it off with warm water, and follow up with your usual cleansing routine. You'll love it!

Expensive but oh-so-worth it!

I believe you can't go back to any other makeup remover or method after this. It so so good. Takes off all makeup including waterproof stuff in one go. Clinique products are so worth that huge price tag. This one leaves my skin lovely, no dryness, no residue, no greasy feeling! How perfect can something be? I'll happily purchase it all my life!

Tips: a little goes a long way

HOLY GRAIL

This is hands down the BEST makeup remover out there. I would never go back to using anything else. It is worth its weight in gold. It removes everything, I wear a full face of make up including waterproof mascara everyday and its off in seconds.

Tips: Apply to a dry face with dry hands.

Works great!

My makeup seems to be all gone if I pair this with a cleanser afterwards as well. Sometimes my foundation or eye makeup won't come off with this (but Vaseline seems to work). One time I think I had a primer on and there was a weird reaction where my face had a crazy layer of oil on which wouldn't come off... I'm not sure what happened. Anyway, generally this does the job pretty well!

Tips: Massage onto dry skin then use water!

Not a fan....

This truly does what it says it will, it takes off all of your makeup really well and emulsifies as you remove your makeup. However, mine began to smell really bad after about 3 months. I contacted Clinique and they replaced it free of charge which was really sweet! I haven't used my new container just yet as I'm using up another cleansing oil right now, I'll edit this review once I have :)

Tips: Using a spatula to get the product out instead of your hands, I find pots to be really unsanitary and I'm guessing that's why my one went bad :(

Great for double cleansing

I heard about this balm online and wanted to try integrating it into my skincare regime as a double cleansing balm - it is great! Takes off all my makeup and leaves my skin clean and ready to be cleansed for the evening. Love the smell and the feel, the massive container means it feels like it's going to last forever!

Tips: Use in a double cleansing regime

AMAZING

This make up removing balm is honestly amazing. The consistency is obviously a balm, but when you warm it up by rubbing it between your fingers it turns into an oil. You just rub it onto the area and it gets everything off, just rinse or wipe the area with a wet cloth and it's all gone. So clean, and it doesn't sting when you open your eyes. I haven't noticed a smell or anything. Because it turns into an oil, it means that a little goes a very long way. This product will last a super long time, and it gets off even the most stubborn mascara. I even got foundation and bright red lip stain on white top, and I tried everything to get it out. The only thing that really worked, was this make up remover. It literally pulled it right out and you can't even tell there was anything on it. It may seem a bit pricey, but it will last such a long time, and it works 10x better than any other make up remover I've tried. So I think it's definitely worth it. The packaging makes it seem luxurious and fancy. It looks so clean and pretty. It doesn't dry out your skin and it feels very soft, and I think it would be fine on anyone with sensitive skin.

I absolutely LOVE this stuff.
