The Science Behind Cleansing Balms

Oil-based cleansers work on the principle that "like dissolves like"—the botanical oils in this balm bind to makeup, sunscreen, and sebum, lifting them away without disrupting your skin's natural moisture barrier. The emulsifying complex transforms the oil into a milky cleanser that rinses completely clean, leaving no greasy residue.

Premium Ingredients

Cleansing Oils

Jojoba Oil – Desert botanical wax that mimics natural sebum for balanced cleansing.

Castor Oil – Traditional cleansing oil with deep pore purification and makeup removal power.

Babassu Oil – Brazilian palm oil that melts at skin temperature, creating the luxurious balm-to-oil transformation.

Nourishing Botanicals

Rosehip Oil – Wild rose essence rich in vitamins A and C for brightening and nourishment.

Evening Primrose Oil – Delicate floral botanical with GLA for anti-inflammatory support.

Safflower Oil – Lightweight botanical base high in linoleic acid for gentle, silky cleansing.

How to Use

Quick Routine: With dry hands, massage a quarter-size amount onto dry skin, including eye area. Let the balm melt and dissolve makeup for 30 seconds. Add warm water and massage to create a milky emulsion. Rinse thoroughly. Follow with toner and skincare.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I use a cleansing balm? I've never used one before.
A: With dry hands, scoop a quarter-size amount and massage onto your dry face, including eye area. The balm melts into an oil that dissolves makeup. Add water and continue massaging—it transforms into a milky emulsion. Rinse thoroughly. Your skin will feel clean and nourished, never stripped.

Q: Will this clog my pores or cause breakouts?
A: No! Our balm uses non-comedogenic botanical oils that actually help dissolve sebum and clear pores. The emulsifying action ensures everything rinses away completely. Many customers with acne-prone skin find cleansing balms gentler than harsh foaming cleansers that can trigger more oil production.

Q: Do I need to use another cleanser after this (double cleanse)?
A: It depends on your preference. Our balm is effective as a standalone cleanser for most people. However, if you wear heavy makeup or waterproof sunscreen, you can follow with a gentle water-based cleanser. For morning cleansing, the balm alone is usually sufficient.

Q: What's the difference between Melt Away and Bentonite Clay cleansing balms?
A: Melt Away is our gentle daily cleanser with 7 nourishing botanical oils—perfect for all skin types, especially sensitive or dry skin. Bentonite Clay adds purifying volcanic clay for deeper cleansing and detoxification—ideal for normal to oily skin or congested pores.

Q: Can I use this to remove waterproof mascara and eye makeup?
A: Yes! Gently massage the balm over closed eyes, let it sit for 10-15 seconds to dissolve the makeup, then rinse. No harsh rubbing needed—the oils dissolve makeup effortlessly.

Q: What size should I get?
A: The 2oz size is perfect for trying the product or travel, and typically lasts 1-2 months with daily use. The 4oz size is better value for regular users and lasts 2-4 months.

Q: Is this safe for sensitive skin?
A: Yes! This formula is designed specifically for sensitive skin with gentle botanical oils and no harsh sulfates or synthetic fragrances. However, we always recommend patch testing if you have very reactive skin.

Q: How is this different from regular oil cleansers?
A: Unlike liquid oil cleansers, our balm has a solid texture that melts on contact with skin, making it less messy and easier to control. The emulsifying complex ensures it rinses completely clean without leaving greasy residue that some oil cleansers can leave behind.

Q: Can I use this in the morning?
A: Absolutely! Many customers use this as their morning cleanser for a gentle, nourishing start to the day. It's perfect for removing overnight skincare products and preparing skin for daytime routine.
