You only need to scoop out a small amount and let it melt with your skin's temperature. It dissolves gently on your face, so you don't need to use a lot.

Given it's a balm, I have a feeling I'll misplace the spatula soon. I wish the balm came in a narrow tube instead, which would be more convenient.

Unlike other balm cleansers that often cause a blemish or two to pop up, this one didn't trigger any breakouts, which I really appreciated. It's great at removing makeup smoothly and effectively. I'd say it's even better than using oil cleansers.

프리스틴 카밍 클렌징 밤

As someone with blemish-prone skin, I find this product too oily. Even after double cleansing with foam, there's still a residue left. The scent is also overwhelmingly artificial and strong. Sadly, I'll have to toss it despite the waste.

It's unique that they use sea water instead of purified water. The ingredients seem decent and the cleansing effectiveness appears to be good.

Mapiel D'Ocean Pristine Calming Cleansing Balm is a game-changer! With EWG Green Grade 1 ingredients and patented natural derivatives, it offers deep cleansing, gentle exfoliation, and skin soothing benefits all in one. Apply it to dry skin, massaging gently, and watch as the sherbet-like texture transforms into a silky oil. It effortlessly removes makeup while leaving your skin beautifully hydrated. As someone with dry skin who often feels tightness after using foam cleansers, I find this balm perfectly moisturizing. It's ideal for those with dry, sensitive skin who want effective cleansing and mild exfoliation. Give it a try!

The downside is that the built-in cap is quite difficult to remove and replace. It's really inconvenient that you have to open the lid again to put the cap on, and you need to twist the lid to take the cap off. This is quite frustrating to deal with.

I absolutely love the natural, skin-friendly ingredients in this product. The fact that it's made with volcanic sea water instead of purified water is amazing! It's PEG-free and has an EWG Green Grade 1 rating, so even those with super sensitive skin can use it with confidence.

I'm not a fan of the scent. But my friend likes it, so I guess it's just personal preference.

The packaging box is pretty. Great cleansing effectiveness and the container is lovely too!

There's nothing to complain about. If I find any drawbacks, I'll update my review.

Gentle on the skin yet cleanses thoroughly. As it's a cleansing balm, it removes makeup effectively.

There's not much to complain about, but having to scoop out the cleansing balm with a spatula every time can be a bit of a hassle.

The sherbet-like texture melts gently into the skin as you massage it in. It cleanses effectively, though for lip stains, I'd recommend using a separate lip remover. The gentle ingredients are a big plus!

The cleansing balm is excellent on its own, so you don't need to use it in any special way to get great results.

I wish they would release a smaller size, like a travel package. It would be great to have a tiny version included in a set with other products. I'd love to take it on trips, but the current size is a bit inconvenient...

At first glance, it looks like Vaseline. However, this sherbet-like cleansing balm melts effortlessly upon contact with your skin due to body heat, transforming into something akin to a cleansing oil. It effectively removes all traces of makeup from your skin. I heard it contains seaweed extract, which explains why my skin feels moisturized without any deep dryness after cleansing. I'm truly satisfied with this product. I'm 200% certain I'll repurchase!

Gently massage the cleansing balm in circular motions for a deep cleanse!

It's a bit disappointing that the balm can crumble when scooping it out with the spatula.

This cleansing balm transforms into oil upon contact with the skin, effectively removing even heavy makeup. It provides a deep cleanse, making it easy to thoroughly clean your face, even with intense makeup!

The only slight inconvenience is that being a balm, you need to use a spatula to scoop it out. Other than that, I can't think of any downsides? I definitely recommend it!

As someone with combination skin, I always experienced tightness and dryness around my cheeks and chin after cleansing. However, this balm cleanser was a game-changer! It's gentle on the skin, and amazingly, after cleansing, there's no tightness or dryness at all. Instead, my skin feels wonderfully hydrated - I'm really impressed with this product! :) It melts easily even at body temperature, which I found more suitable than runny oil cleansers. My skin had become rough and super sensitive due to wearing masks, but after using this for about two weeks, I could really feel my skin improving significantly.

No need for eye makeup remover - this one product does it all! Perfect for travel!

The spatula is a bit tricky to store. Also, the logo and sticker aren't perfectly aligned, which makes it look less high-quality.

1. Removes lip and eye makeup completely without irritation, no separate remover needed
2. No tight feeling after cleansing
3. 100% recyclable packaging with no adhesives
Plus, in my personal opinion, it feels lighter than other cleansing balms!

You have to remove an inner cover to open the lid, which makes it awkward to store the spatula. If you put it inside, the plastic spatula is constantly in contact with the product. Leaving it as is means you have to go through the hassle of opening both the lid and cover every time. It's a bit inconvenient.

It's great that it keeps my skin hydrated even after cleansing! Highly recommended for dry skin types! Just massage it in like a cream, and it cleanses well too. Even for oily skin, if you follow up with a foam cleanser, it leaves your skin feeling moisturized. The scent isn't overpowering, and with ingredients like seaweed, centella, and licorice, it feels more like applying a moisturizer than a cleanser. Since it's silicone-free, it would be perfect as a massage cream after your first cleanse! Also, the packaging paper is easy to unfold and dispose of.
