Moisturizing I applied the balm on my face and massaged it, then rinsed it off with water. (I didn't use the included towel as it was inconvenient) I didn't use any additional cleansers after that. After washing, my skin felt incredibly moisturized! Even on days when I didn't apply a moisturizer, my skin wasn't very dry. I usually tend to have very dry skin, but that wasn't the case this time! It seems to have a similar feel to the oil balm from Neworigin. 2. Glow I'm not sure if it's just my imagination, but my face has a healthy glow. Personally, the great moisturizing effect and this aspect make me want to purchase it. 3. Cleansing power As it's an oil balm, it removes makeup very effectively. 4. Volume The volume is enormous, so it should last a long time even with generous use.
Cons1. Packaging The container is too large, and the styrofoam lid was very messy to remove. It kept getting stuck to my hands... 2. Fragrance I personally like the herbal(?) scent, but it's quite strong. The fragrance might be divisive.
TipSo, will I buy it?: After searching, I found it's around 60,000 won, which makes me quite hesitant. Although the large volume means the cost-effectiveness isn't bad, 60,000 won for a cleansing product is still expensive in my opinion. However, given its great functions (moisturizing, glow), if I have the budget, I would consider purchasing it!

It felt similar to cleansing oil in how it melted the makeup, which I really liked.
ConsHowever, it didn't feel like the base makeup was dissolving well, and there was a constant slippery sensation. As a result, I ended up developing a few pimples, so I had to double cleanse with a cleansing foam and cleansing water. The fragrance was like a floral rose scent, but to be honest, it was a bit strong. Even my mom said it smelled like tire when we used it together. After use, the skin felt soft and supple on the surface, but the cleansing process was quite lengthy, so it inevitably felt a bit drying. As I mentioned earlier, the cleansing just didn't feel very effective, so I don't think I'll be using this product again. Honestly, I had high expectations since I heard the cleansing balm removes glitter well, but there were still tiny bits of glitter left behind. I'm not sure if it's an issue with my technique, but this just didn't work for me.
TipUse this product to remove eye makeup, but for your base makeup, I recommend sticking to your regular cleansing oil - it will remove everything perfectly.

After using the Moringa Cleansing Balm, I followed up with the cleansing water and there was no residue at all. Using the included cloth to wipe seems to remove it even better. <Moisturization> It was completely hydrating. It felt so moisturizing, almost too much. The moisturization is absolutely amazing!!!!
ConsI really love the Moringa scent, but it doesn't seem quite right for my face... The fragrance is too strong and feels like it might be bad for my skin.
TipBe sure to use the included cloth.

The cleansing power is excellent. It seems to remove even the toughest makeup. 2. The included towel works well with it. I found that wiping my face with the towel is better than just rinsing with water. 3. The oil balm does not leave a heavy oily feeling. I think it would be suitable not only for dry skin but also for normal and oily skin types.
Cons1. The scent is a bit too strong for my liking (personal preference). 2. The price is a bit on the expensive side. 3. When it arrived, the contents had already leaked out. It was very slippery. 4. The oil gets stuck between the layers (photo attached).
TipMixing and melting the oil that has settled at the bottom might make it more smooth to use.

Contents: Main product, cleansing towel, spatula 2. The texture is similar to Vaseline. While it doesn't have the feeling of cleansing oil that melts away sebum, it does seem to have an exfoliating effect. Gently massage it onto dry skin to dissolve makeup, then use the damp cleansing towel to wipe it off softly. No need for a second cleanse - just rinse thoroughly with running water. 3. I heard it can also be used as a face mask, which speaks to its excellent moisturizing properties. After cleansing, the skin doesn't look red or feel tight, but rather comfortable. It gives a sense of forming a protective layer, though on very dusty days, it can feel a bit stuffy and clog the pores.
Cons1. It seems to have too many unnecessary ingredients, like a whole planet's worth. There are all kinds of allergens and three types of silicones... Do we really need all that? Those sensitive to natural oils should probably avoid this. Just looking at the ingredient list, you can tell it's heavily loaded with natural oils, so your skin might just flip out. 2. The fragrance is too strong. It's not headache-inducing, but not particularly refreshing either. 3. The cleansing towel is hard to wash. I've been using the Face Halo for a long time, and its biggest advantage is that you can just rub it with a bit of soap in wet condition, and it cleans up nicely. It also dries quickly, so you don't have to put it in the washing machine every day. But the towel that comes with this Moringa Balm is inconvenient to use daily - it doesn't wash well and doesn't dry easily. 4. The price is just evil. If I hadn't won the Hwahae trial, I doubt I'd ever buy this regularly.

Although I was selected for the Hwahae trial, I was a bit concerned about the ingredients. However, after using the product for a few days, I'm relieved to say that I didn't experience any breakouts! ✔️Spreadability & Cleansing Power _Using the spatula provided, I scooped out an appropriate amount of the product and applied it to my face, rolling it around. It melted into my skin smoothly. I was surprised at how it melted even heavy makeup. The eye makeup also came off without any irritation. Then, I used the included face towel, dampened with warm water, to wipe it all off. It cleaned my face so thoroughly! (Perfect for those who are tired after work!) The towel rinsed off the product residue very well. It's amazing! ✔️After cleansing, my complexion looks brighter, and thanks to the plant-based oils, it's incredibly moisturizing. The next morning, my face feels so soft and supple. 🌱 It's perfect for the dry winter season these days.
Cons✔️The fragrance is a total dislike for me. It has this strange, old medicinal smell... The scent is really bothersome every time I use it. Not recommended for those with a sensitive nose. ✔️Ingredients As I mentioned earlier, there are way too many questionable ingredients. There are even some potential allergens, so if you have extremely sensitive skin, you'll need to do a patch test before using. ✔️Price The price of this product is too high for me to repurchase. At over 50,000 won, it's not affordable for those on a tighter budget.

When the package arrived and I started to open it, I noticed a seal-like substance that felt slippery, which lowered my expectations even further... But then, when I actually started using it, my opinion changed. 1. Removes Makeup Thoroughly I usually used a cleansing oil, but with the one I was using, pearl eyeshadows and mascara wouldn't come off easily, so I had to use a separate eye makeup remover. But this one removes everything cleanly! 2. Smooth Application Since it's a balm, I was reminded of petroleum jelly, and the texture is similar too!! When I scoop some out and apply it to my face, it spreads smoothly and evenly, which I really liked. 3. Product Composition When you open it, there's a spoon-like tool and a cleansing balm, along with a dedicated towel. Using that towel to cleanse is so convenient!! Just soak it in lukewarm water and wipe, it's the best... There's hardly any irritation, so I think even those with sensitive skin can use it. My skin didn't get red or feel irritated at all. 4. Moisturizing Power Being a balm, it has amazing moisturizing power. It's like applying petroleum jelly to your face... My mom tried it too and felt the same way - the skin becomes so soft. After cleansing, there's no tightness, it's great!! However, for those with oily skin, it might feel a bit heavy.
Cons1. Fragrance I wasn't a big fan of the fragrance ㅠㅠ It has a kind of pungent, strong scent... It seems to be a polarizing fragrance. For those sensitive to scents like me, it's a bit too intense and unpleasant. 2. Towel is a Bit Inconvenient It removes makeup cleanly, but since all the makeup ends up on the towel, you have to wash and reuse it. It's not that it doesn't remove everything, but it's a bit of a hassle... Those who dislike inconveniences may not like this. 3. Price The price seems too high ㅠㅠ I got it as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer, but if I had to buy it with my own money, it would be too much... It might be a burden for students.

After massaging your face at night, you can wipe off your makeup completely by using the warm water-soaked cleansing towel. Even waterproof mascara can be easily removed. Just rub the towel a few times in warm water, and it all comes off. It was very convenient! Since it's an oil-based product, it does a great job of removing excess sebum! After cleansing, my skin feels incredibly smooth. It didn't sting my eyes at all. It's just a bit cloudy, but it all rinses off with water. You only need to use an amount the size of your thumbnail. A little goes a long way.
ConsWhen I opened the package, the product was cold from the chilly weather, and as it warmed up inside, some oil rose to the top. The ingredients are not very good. That's why I always use a foam cleanser. The scent... it's too strong. It's like a mixture of floral and chemical fragrances. The smell is just unpleasant.
TipScoop out an amount the size of your thumbnail to use! Using too much will just leave a lot of residue. Soak the cleansing towel in warm water before using it. After use, wash it thoroughly and let it dry completely - it's easy for bacteria to grow on it.
