I usually use the Beauty of Joseon cleansing Balm and I like it just fine. I bought this one out of curiosity. I am very glad I did, it works well, it also has no fragrance and the scooping tool is stored in way that is convenient for future use. A little goes a long way and the value is unbeatable.

I have tried many cleansing balms, including those from Farmacy and Milk Makeup. This one works as well as Farmacy for half the price. Leaves my dehydrated, normal-type skin feeling clean & supple. I always follow up my cleansing balm with another traditional cleanser (I love the Pyunkang Yul low pH foaming cleanser from the Calming line) and it makes a huge difference for breakouts & the size of my pores.

My only gripe is that this product is scented. Would love a fragrance-free option. My skin is not overly sensitive but I still prefer scentless products.

I live in a very cold climate and the balm is a perfect way to get my face clean without drying or stripping

I am impressed and I have now been converted into the cleansing balm lifestyle. I originally ordered this out of curiosity and to bump my cart total up in order to receive free shipping lol— but now I’m glad i did! At first the concept of a balm/oil cleanser felt sort of like the antithesis of skin cleansing—but the soft supple feel of my skin after the first use quickly changed my mind.
I’m not so out of touch as to have missed the trend of oil cleansers I had just sort of stuck with my same old-same old, or even (gasp!) used those wipes to remove make up. NEVER AGAIN! This removed a full face of makeup and left my skin feeling clean, and moisturized but not at all greasy or oily. I find that applying moisturizer after using the balm is still necessary for me (my house is really dry, and it’s January) so while I say that it’s moisturizing what I mean is that it’s not drying.
I use pretty much every product in the sensitive skin line and this balm can be included in that for me— i felt no irritation, no stinging or visible skin reaction. I’m really pleased :) Highly recommend. I can’t speak on comparison to other balms or cleansing oils, but this product is great! It does as it claims, and my skin has been really happy.

I like it so far makes my skin look dewy and healthy
