How I love thee

I love the feel of this! It’s a thick solid balm that sort of melts into and oil and dissolves your makeup.

Doesn’t have a strong scent, or much at all.

It didn't irritate my dry sensitive skin or eyes (and I get it all up in there!)

Removed all traces of my makeup, including my stubborn waterproof liner & mascara. I like that I don’t need to keep wiping over my eyes numerous times with cotton pads or wipes – just gently with my fingers.

It is expensive but you only need a very small amount so a pottle lasts ages!

I’m not too sure how this would go on oily skin. Maybe ask for a sample from Clinque before investing.

Tips: The pottle isn’t exactly travel friendly so simply scrape some out and pop it in a smaller container for travel.

If you can’t fork out the $60 odd dollars, give The Body Shop Chamomile Cleansing Butter a whirl, it’s a pretty close dupe.

Wouldn't use anything else

Honestly the best cleansing product I have ever used. Does exactly what it says and removes even the most stubborn ear make-up and lipsticks. Leaves skin feeling clean, soft and smooth. Never irritating on my often sensitive skin. Also great value for money as it will last such a long time. I use this daily and like to use it in the shower. Would highly recommend it to anyone who needs just one product to remove all traces of make-up

Tips: Perfect for us skin types, have recommend it to my friends and all love it. Can be found on Strawberry.net for $50!!

Holy Grail Cleanser

This does exactly what it states! Takes everything off my face even the most stubborn of mascara. I have extremely sensitive skin and this doesn't cause any reaction which was a very pleasant surprise for me. This has helped me with my stubborn foundations as I was getting bad pimples due to not being able to remove them. This is my fav hav repurchased several times and cannot go back to any other now.

AMAZING-Holy Grail

I absolutely adore the texture of this cleanser, it starts out being a hard balm, then as soon as you apply it onto your face it just melts into your skin in a oil type consistency. It glides onto my face like butter on a hot knife.

It is amazingly effective, it just melts away my make-up. It powers through my stubborn mascara, (which usually requires a lot of hot water and make-up remover) it washes of my face beautifully and doesn't leave any grease, oily or dry tight feeling skin behind, like others can.

I find a small 20c size amount is plenty to remove all my make-up and cleanse my face, so a little goes a long way. Once upon a time I would have laughed at spending $68 on a cleanser, but this one is soooo worth the price and because you don't need make-up remover and the jar is a generous size it is very economical, and quite possibly cheaper in the long run.

This product defiantly does what it says it does and I would defiantly reccomend. This is by far the best cleanser I have ever used, I cannot rave enough about this and am so happy I decided to take the plunge and purchase after seeing the reviews on Beauty Review

Tips: Would defiantly reccomend to people with dry/sensitive skin

Yes, Clinique moisturisers are amazing - Clinique dramatically different moisturiser is my holy grail daytime moisturiser and Clinique moisture surge thirst relief is a fab night cream. I have dry, sensitive skin and would highly recommend these!

Always repurchase

Quick and easy to use. There is absolutely no fuss when using a cleansing balm. Clinique's one removes pretty much every trace of makeup. Stubborn eyeliner gone. Long wear lipstick bye bye.

I use this product every night because it is so effective. It's also great as it doesn't leave a residue on your face once rinsed off with a damp towel.

This product works well for facial massage as well. It allows your fingers to glide over your skin without pulling at it.

Tips: Follow up with something like a micellar water to make sure every trace of makeup is gone.

LOVE LOVE LOVE

Ok, so I was very hesitant to buy this cleanser, firstly I don't like shelling out my hard earned cash for products that potentially won't agree with my skin. But I have a great clinique sales person and she talked me into it. I was also buying Estee Lauder Double wear foundation so needed something heavy duty to remove that along with concealer, powder and eye make up. Well this does the trick, its lovely to put on, great to massage in, I usually start with my cheeks, chin and forehead then once I see my base has been broken up I continue onto my eyes. I love cleansers that don't hurt my eyes and this one definitely doesn't sting and is also very gentle on my eye area. I also have a spot of eczema on my eyelid and it has dissappeared while using this cleansing balm. Any way, will definitely be re-purchasing when I run out. Worth the money.

Tips: Wash off thoroughly or it can be oily on your skin.

MUCH LOVE!

I got given just over half a tub of this by my BFF who had no room in her luggage going home (Waaaaaaahhhhh!!!) and you can guess that if she was jettisoning this, it's a large tub!

First off, this stuff removes ALL the makeup. I have oily skin but I have no hesitation in using this balm that turns into an oil-esk substance on the skin. Just the tiniest amount is required.

It doesn't leave a residue. It does remove estee lauder double wear. It does remove stubborn makeup. I will cry when I finally get to the bottom of what I have because it means I'll have to buy my own, but it just does such an amazing job, I need this in my life.

Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm

I have recently bought this product and have been using it each day. This product works great for me as I wear a waterproof mascara which is usually quite difficult to remove. I find this remover very gentle on my skin and the oils remove the makeup very quickly and effortlessly. This product is great for my sensitive skin, and surprisingly doesn't sting my eyes!

Tips: After using this remover I use a clinique face cleanser, this removes any left over oils leaving the skin soft and clean :)

My new must have

After seeing a couple of well-known beauty bloggers recommend this product and myself in need of a proper makeup remover I decided to splash out and purchase this.

I can say nothing but positive things about this product! While on the pricier end I absolutely love Clinique products I suppose it is a pricetag that comes alongside the brand. Luckily though, the pricetag is for sure worth it.

I use about a coin sized scoop on my fingertips and wipe it all over my face, including my eyelashes. The balm works its magic and my makeup just melts off. I then use water to wash the balm off and go about my usual cleansing routine.

My face feels so clean and the product leaves my skin feeling soft and not one bit irritated. The only potential problem I suspect this balm may encounter is if you own a super waterproof mascara, you may need a separate eye makeup remover for that one.

Hella Expensive, but so good

This is what all those makeup remover balms are aiming to be, this manages to get every little bit of makeup including waterproof off in a manner of minutes without the need to over scrub or ending up with liner still under the eye, or leftover mascara in the morning.

It is expensive but it is a large pot, and a little does go a long way as the oil in the balm seems to expand with the heat of your hands, so rubbing it between your fingers first before applying to the skin will see you get a prolonged use out of this ja rmaking it a little more afffordable, granted I don't buy this all the time but if I happen to be at a Clinique counter or at duty free then I do get a large jar of it, or 2. You really can't beat good skincare and my skin loves me for it.
