I have been using this product for over a month since it arrived in the Beauty Box. OMG I thought it was a fad, didn't expect much.
Best makeup remover I think I've ever used. It gets off all of the eyemake-up, all of the double wear and leaves my skin feeling fantastic.
I only wish the cloth it came with was black - the foundation stains don't really come out that easily!
I received this cleansing balm in the September Beauty Box and thought it looked like another great Trilogy product.
It comes packaged in a cute little brown pot with a black screw top lid. It also has a nice face cloth.
When I opened the lid, my first thought was that it looks like a cross between candle wax and coconut oil. It has an unusual, but pleasant scent, maybe most attributable to the mango it contains. It has fabulous ingredients such as mango butter, and sunflower, olive, rosehip, and coconut oils.
The instructions say to just use a ¼ teaspoon, but I find that isn't anywhere near enough, so I use more. I use it as instructed, massaging it into my skin then washing off with a wet face cloth. I find it does a good job. I was hoping it would leave a soft oily residue behind it, with all the oils it contains, but this was not the case. So once my skin is clean, I massage some into my clean skin and it leaves a nice waxy soft feel on my skin.
I think this is an interesting product, and the pot will last me a while, but I’m not sure if I’ll repurchase it. Actually, it would be a great travel product as it removes make-up, cleans the skin, and is a great night moisturiser – 3 in 1, saving space !!! I would definitely consider re-purchasing it to take on a trip with me (if I ever get to take a trip).
Tips: Tip: I think it works better if you massage it in, then have a hot shower, then apply some for moisturising. It makes my skin feel glowy and healthy when I do that instead of just washing off with a face cloth, as that leaves my skin a little dull for some reason.
