I saw all the fabulous reviews about this balm so I had to give this baby a try . After trying the trilogy balm I wanted to give this one a try .
I loved the packaging of this make up balm tin . It’s bright coloured and easy to identify amongst my other beauty products.
Consistency is a thick yellow coloured balm . It reminds me of a grainy balm that has a strong lavender and mixed herbs scent . It’s bold and strong.
I apply this to my full face of make up . I use a hot flannel to help lift off my make up . My foundation and eye shadow all come off with a breeze. My liquid eye liner and eye liner and mascara unfortunately did not budge. After multiple times trying all failed. I used my cleansing oil to get the remaining make up off.
After using it I was just a little bit disappointed that it didn’t take all my make up off . I can’t see myself repurchasing this one. I need one remover that it all not multiple removers.
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.
Tips: Buy some and carry it with you :)
