Not sure
it removed my make up flawlessly, it melts into my skin but it breaks me out as well. If you aren't prone to acne, may be this will work well for you.
Not a fan...
I received a full-size GWP of this cleansing balm and I must be one of the very few who doesn't care for it. While effective at removing makeup, it has odd, plasticky texture.Girls best friend!
This has been game changing for my sensitive skin. This is now a staple in my skin care routine.Good
Just a great cleaning balm. Takes off the makeups even the stubborn ones, gentle on the whole face and easy to apply/use. Washes off great as well. Is a good solid first step cleanser.Hydrating
Best cleanser for makeup, slides right off, even waterproof makeupGreat make up remover
I love how gentle it’s on skin and tough on make upLOVE
Best thing for taking makeup off! So soothing and not drying for skinAmazing
This balm is buttery and melts make up off extremely easily, along with leaving my skin feeling soft. I was struggling to find a cleanser that didn't dry out my skin excessively and this product has been perfect! A small amount goes a long way and it takes ages for the tub to run out. Worth it.Love it
This is so good - completely removes makeup without stripping skin or irritating eyes. Need to reorder asap.It's.... okayish? Not worth the hype, IMO.
I received this as a GWP and was excited to try it as I've heard lots of rave reviews. Disclaimer, I rarely wear makeup so I can't speak to the makeup melting properties of this, so perhaps that's where it really shines.... but I just didn't feel like it did anything? I got a decent sized sample and used the whole jar to really give it a good go, but it just made my skin feel waxy more than anythi...Read MoreNice but not amazing
This balm is really nice to use, it's soft and buttery and easy to apply. I don't find it's amazing at removing my make up and requires a fair bit of washing off. I got this as a free sample and probably wouldn't buy it again as I find an eye makeup remover and then cleanser just as effective.Fav way to remove makeup
Literally use this everyday to remove my makeup and doesn't clog my skin. It breaks down my makeup so easily and leaves my skin feeling softBest make up remover
My favourite makeup remover. I love how it melts into my skin. I only need a little bit and it takes everything off so gently and easilyA staple in my PM routine
Love how non-messy the balm formula is compared to liquid oil cleansers. I use this every PM to remove both makeup and SPF - works like a dream on both. I just massage it in with my fingers and then rinse off so there's no need for makeup pads/muslin cloth. This tub lasts a couple of months so the cost per use evens out. I did have a purge period when I first transitioned from makeup wipes but it ...Read MoreReally enjoyed the feel
So smooth to apply. Good for sensitive skin.Works well
Received a decent sample of this. It works well as the first stage of a double cleanse. I think I would rebuy although I prefer to use miceller water.Magic cream
Beautiful thick cream like butter, feels rich, beautiful and refreshing at the same time. A small amount on finger tips goes a long way. Never used anything else like it before but will continue to use it every night. Followed with toner, night serum and moisturiser. Great routine for evening either after shower or if not having a shower simple to use over basin. Now I understand the hype!Work

it breaks down the makeup after an all day wear and it is so gentle on the skin.A good make-up remover, but requires an extra step in your routine
I received a GWP of this cleansing balm. It's certainly an innovative product, melting make-up, even waterproof mascara. After smoothing it over your face to melt your make-up, you need to remove the balm with cotton pads or tissues, THEN remove the residue with a warm face washer before cleansing. I wouldn't buy this product, as micellar water does a much quicker job. On the positive side, beca...Read Morebest make up remover EVER!

Do not dry skin after frequent use. Remove eye make up easily. Face feel clean and did not cause block pore. I have repeated purchases of this balm. It is so good.Great at removing makeup
This cleansing balm does a wonderful job at removing makeup and sunscreen! It feels so therapeutic and relaxing to massage it in to my skin. I always follow it up with a foaming cleanser to get rid of the oily feeling. The main negative is the price.NOT FOR ME
I received a full 50gm size of this with GWP. I am using it but I don't feel it is the right type of cleanser for my skin. It does what it says and my skin felt clean after using it but I didn't like the "greasy feeling" it left on my skin. I don't use a lot of heavy make up. I only use primer as I don't need a full coverage on my skin of heavy foundations.Love!
This is the best thing ever! Especially after a long day at work this makes taking off my make-up so much easier. So glad I've discovered this product.Absolutely magical
This cleanser was recommended to me in a recent make up course I did and OMG it does not disappoint. Absolutely magical on the skin. My skin is all kinds of crazy. Dry, sensitive, dull. This just melts make up away, I have no idea how this magic works. I use it when I double cleanse in the evening and just work it in before I go in the shower. Then I rinse and follow with the gentle cleaning foam ...Read MoreLove this!
This would have to be the best cleanser I have used. It does exactly what it says it does and just melts all of the makeup away. It leaves my skin soft and does not dry it out at all. Highly recommend!The only balm I use
This is the best. The end. It removes all my make up including eyes. Honestly just melts everything away and is a really good first cleansing option.Great for first cleanse
I love using this as step one of my double cleanse. Fantastic makeup remover, so gentle on the eyes! A little bit goes such a long way.Best cleansing balm
This is my favorite cleansing balm. It is non scented and it glides on the skin very well. It cleans all my makeup & sunscreen, and it also rinses off easily. I have purchased this balm many times.Doesn't blow me away
I have tried lots of cleansers over the years and this one isn't what I would call an amazing product. I got a small sample so didn't purchase the larger size. I find it just doesn't seem to lather up very well & not sure it is actually cleaning much! Doesn't strip skin or leave you feeling dry, just is not one I would buy in full size.Soft and gentle but does a great job
This is a nice soft makeup remover but it does a great job. It leaves my skin soft and feeling greatThe BEST make up remover!
I've been using this product for years and will continue to do so for ages! It's the best balm I've ever used. Breaks down all of my make up, even mascara. I used it with my face halo and find it doesn't strip my skin at all. It's quite pricey but the tub is huge so will last for ages!Must have!
I've tried a few oil/balm cleansers to remove my makeup with, but none have won me over like this one! After using, my skin feels clean but not stripped, and I really like how the product emulsifies. When using this to remove makeup, I do follow it up with my regular cleanser, but my skin is left feeling soft and hydrated.great consistency
This stuff really takes everything off! I use it as the first step in my double cleanse routine. Highly recommended.Effectively removes waterproof makeup
Removes waterproof and long lasting makeup well. I used as part of the first step in my double cleaning routine following up with a gel cleanser. Did not have any residues and emulsified well when wet.The original and the best!
Have bought many times and the tub always lasts soooo long. Best way to start your night time skincare routine with this balm that just removes everything so gentlyPerfectly clean
I have used many cleansing balms and cleansing oils throughout the years and this is definitely one of my favourites. I have repurchased this many times and still find it just as effective. It breaks down makeup and spf to leave my skin feeling very clean and not over-stripped.Amazing!
This makeup balm is super effective in removing makeup - dissolves straight away! Hydrating and non-greasy formula. Highly recommend.nice and clean
it totally remove my heavy make up, and when I have enough time i do massage with my nose and it clean the blackhead too!Ride or die
I love this balm gentle on my lashes and around my eyes and you only need a littleA Stable in my Skincare Routine
I have tried many different cleansing oils for my first cleanse in the evening, but somehow, even after a second cleanse, I always had residue and would inevitably break out. This balm is absolutely perfect. Having found it, I would never change to another one. Takes makeup off and leaves skin clean, not feeling super oily. I use it with a flannel from Kmart.My Favourite
This product is suitable for sensitive skin and cleanses gently and cleanly. don't feel oily after using it.good cleansing balm
I love this cleaning balm as it is gentle on the skin, easily melt and give the skin a good clean. I have purchased two so far.Love it !!
The best makeup, sunscreen remover I have found so far. It leaves my skin feeling moisturised, clean, and not stripped of oils. I received this product as a sample and it has won my heart. I can not stop talking about this great product. Will be purchasing more. The price is steep however, it's a winner.Great pre cleanser
Great simple pre cleanser. Melts makeup and other products like sunscreen away with easeRemoves all my waterproof makeup too!
This product is absolutely amazing and it removes all my makeup including my waterproof makeup which helps my skin to not breakout!Great alternative
Is a nice alternative to liquid cleaners and is easy on the go, especially when you don't feel like spending a lot of time removing your makeup at the end of the day.Great
I love this cleaning Balm, it feels really nice to use and really helps melt all my make up off. I love that it more environment friendly compared to make up remover and cotton pads. Wish it was a bit cheaper thoughGood
The texture is moist and softExcellent double cleanse step 1
This cleansing balm is great for removing makeup and waterproof sunscreen as part of a double cleanse. I apply the product to dry skin, work in, rinse and move to second cleanser. I had a few breakouts when first using this product alone, but with a double cleanse followed by gentle cleanser or micellar water it's working perfectly now. Frangrance free is also a huge plus and the tub lasts a long ...Read MoreAmazing
This does a brilliant job at removing makeup. It melts away everything without leaving your skin feeling dry or stripped.Perfect Camping Must-Have
I take this bad boy with me when I go on little adventures in the campervan. It is great for removing my makeup at the end of a day and, unlike liquid cleansers, I know it won't spill all through my makeup bag or take up much space. It's very effective and lasts for AGES!Best balm
I have almost finished two pack of this products love this, very easy to clean the make up even the eye make up without bothering my eyes. I usually cleans with this once and the second cleanse is with a gel cleansing or sometimes if I feel too dry I use the same product on the second wash. first apply on dry face and massage, then wet your hands and massage and then wipe it with a wet face washer...Read MoreBest Makeup Remover!
This removes all traces of makeup including my waterproof mascara. And does it with ease, I do recommend cleansing again with your favourite cleanser for an ultra clean face.Good for removing eye makeup but make sure you wash this off with foaming cleanser afterwards otherwise this product can block your pores

Works just like a cleansing oil except it's solid - so great for travel. I like that it breaks down my mascara and eyeliner with ease.wow
I helps to take off my makeup wellGreat cleanser
Nice cleanser that does a thorough job of cleaning the skin and great for removing make-up without needing to rub the skin too muchGood
It removes makeup but it is very pricey for what it does.Nothing gets makeup off better
Only product that actually removes all traces of waterproof mascara! Definitely need to follow with another cleanser after (I like to use a gel) to remove all traces but this stuff will melt all your makeup like nothing else.Gentle and don't leave any greasy feeling
It is gentle and i love itsuccessful balm
took off all my foundation well and left skin feeling soft but did not take off non waterproof mascara at allAmazing
This product works wonders to remove all your makeup at the end of the day! I love using the double cleanse method and this product literally takes all my make up off. The consistency of the product is really good and it’s quite soft to touch. I definitely recommend this product!Amazing
I got a travel size of this when travelling as I forgot my normal eye makeup remover and absolutely loved how easy it melted off my waterproof mascara (which is very difficult to get off at the best of times). A little goes a long way with this.Takes off waterproof makeup with ease
Received this as a sample and very impressed. Takes off my waterproof eye makeup with ease and leaves my skin feeling really hydrated (but not oily).amazing!
I received a sample of this and couldn't believe I only just learnt about double cleansing! This is great for taking off even the most stubborn, waterproof, full glam faces. It's oily so it goes right into the pores. My skin is oily and this has never caused a breakout. You don't need too much either, it'll last a good while. Essential, will be purchasing!Best thing since sliced bread
I had no expectations of this product, But my friend who is a qualified make up artist had a video using it on her facebook and I was like... well.. Ill give it a go. I use Estee Lauder double wear... so I needed something good.
This is the best damn makeup remover I have ever used. It glides over your skin like an ointment and lifts the make up off your face without drying it out. I...Read MoreVery happy with this purchase!
Dissolved all my make up I mmediately on my face - even mascara and eye shadow. Did not leave my face oily or dry, so very happy with this purchase.Great to 'take the day off' ;)
I use this as a first step in a double cleanse at the end of the day to take off my makeup. It does such a good job (although I look a little like joker when my makeup smudges and slides around haha!) You only need a little bit of product so it lasts so long!! I think it's really great value and does exactly what it claims :)A very effective cleansing balm
This is a very nice, effective cleansing balm for removing any makeup and SPF. It absolutely destroys any makeup, I even use it to remove my eye makeup. I apply a little to my dry face, massage in, then emulsify with water and remove with a face cloth and all my makeup just melts away! It leaves my skin feeling soft and clean and doesn't feel stripping at all. I use this as a first cleanse, or ev...Read MoreGood cleansing balm
Got a sample from goodie bag. It dose a good job to clean my skin.
Easy to wash off. No greasy feeling.My skins best friend
This is my favourite part of my night time routine! It removes all of the dirt and makeup from the day and literally feels like it melts it off. It’s the most satisfying thing ever and I feel like my skin is 100% clean since introducing this to my routine.Good but expensive
This is my second time purchasing this product. I love the balm consistency and it does a great job at removing my make up. I am giving it 4 stars (not 5) due to the cost as I find it quite expensive.My new friend
I got it as a sample and this is my all time favourite cleansing Balm now. Makes cleansing a breeze for my dry skin.Amazing
Received this as a sample and absolutely loved it. Melts into the skin, washes of easily and breaks down the toughest of make up. Definitely going to buy in the larger size!The best makeup remover
Super moisturising and leaves your skin feeling noursishedmy favourite
Love this product so much as part of my double cleanse routine! it melts my makeup off so easily, especially my waterproof mascara without tugging my skin. you will most likely need to go in with another cleanser after as it is hard to get the residue off with just water, however as I double cleanse my second cleanser does this. Your face will feel so clean afterwards, definitely repurchasing!Cleansing Balm
This is a really nice gentle cleansing balm, not to strong for sensitive skin!One of the best out there
This is one of the best cleansing balms out there. Super smooth to apply and works amazingly at getting off makeup even the thick waterproof stuff !Amazing
Takes off a full face in one small use, I'll never go back to wipes againDefinitely takes the day off!
Awesome makeup remover, it gets rid of all your makeup and waterproof mascara. It's nice and hydrating, takes the makeup off but doesn't leave your skin feeling tight or dry.Amazing balm
I love this cleansing balm, it takes off a FULL face of makeup so easily and doesn't leave any sticky residue when washed off. LOVE!I love it!!
Absolutely love this product, I little goes a long way and certainly removes everything. Working from home I dont wear any foundation anymore but I do wear eye makeup which it removes so easily!Does the trick
It works really well but I find myself a bit bleary eyed after using it other than that it takes everything off well. I only use it after a heavy makeup day.Best makeup remover
I love using this after a night out, especially for eye makeup as I have sensitive eyes and I never have any problems. Quick rub finish with cleanser for the oily ness and hardly takes any time!Best makeup remover
