While it's less convenient to apply than oil-based cleansers, it's definitely better when rinsing off. True to its name, it has a lovely floral scent that makes using it a pleasant experience. The cleansing effectiveness is good, so I use it confidently even after wearing makeup.
ConsSince you have to scoop it out with your fingers, it seems like I'll use it up quickly. It's a bit tricky to control the amount.

The texture is a bit firmer than your typical cleansing foam.
ConsI didn't have any blemishes before, but being new to cleansing balms, I found it a bit challenging to control the amount I used.

So I switched to a more oil-based cleanser, and I'm loving it! There's no tightness after cleansing, and my skin doesn't feel dry at all. It's great at removing all my makeup, even the stubborn bits, without leaving any residue.
ConsIt's difficult to control how much product comes out, and it's too rich for my liking. Having to wipe it off is a bit inconvenient.

The cleansing effectiveness is great, and the ingredients are excellent too!
ConsIt's tricky to control the amount. You need to keep the stick right next to you when using it. Other than that, no real issues.

As someone with dry skin, I appreciated that it didn't leave my skin feeling parched. Unlike cleansing oils, it doesn't visibly dissolve blackheads during emulsification, but it's perfect for what a cleanser should do! The ingredients are great, so I'd recommend this to those who pay attention to ingredient lists.
ConsIt comes with a built-in spatula, but being a balm-type, it doesn't emulsify easily. While it might work well in warm summer weather, in fall and winter it becomes quite solid, requiring you to melt it with the warmth of your fingers. It's difficult to control the amount, and the jar packaging raises hygiene concerns. The scent is strongly lemony, and it doesn't completely remove eye makeup, so you'll need a separate eye makeup remover.

I use a small amount daily to remove my sunscreen, and I'm pleased that it doesn't cause any blemishes. The balm transforms from a solid to a liquid oil, giving it a richer texture that seems effective for removing excess sebum.
ConsWhile I don't have any major complaints about the product, the only slight drawback is that it can be a bit tricky to control the amount you use since it's in a solid form. I think after using it a few times, you'll get a feel for the right amount that works for you.

Normally my skin starts to feel dry right after washing, but with this product it took 1-2 minutes before I felt any dryness. (I waited to test this out) @ The lack of scent or color really makes it feel gentle @ Very satisfied with the cleansing effectiveness as I don't usually wear heavy makeup
Cons@ It's not easy to control the amount when scooping it out @ It's a bit more inconvenient to use compared to pump-type oil cleansers

But the amount was too small and the price too high, so I didn't repurchase. I'm thrilled this one comes in a larger size. As for the performance... I'm writing this as part of The Hwahae Testers, but I'll definitely buy it again! It removes makeup better than expected, and it emulsifies more smoothly than an oil cleanser. I used to procrastinate before washing my face, but since using this, cleansing has become more enjoyable and convenient. Its cleansing effectiveness is as good as an oil cleanser. I have acne-prone oily skin, but I didn't experience any blemishes, residue when using an exfoliating toner, or feeling of clogged pores.
ConsThe downsides... It's a bit tricky to control the amount you dispense... And it's slightly pricey...?
TipAfter wiping with a cleansing water first, gently massage this product in circular motions for a while, and it'll draw out sebum like magic.

Cleansing effectiveness 3. Design + Vegan + Gentle ingredients 4. Product volume For me, the most important factor is whether a product causes blemishes or not. I appreciated how it gently cleansed without irritating my skin.
Cons1. Inconvenience of using a spatula 2. Weak against water 3. Difficulty in controlling the amount As this was my first time using a cleansing balm, I wasn't familiar with the application method. It turns out you just scoop some out, massage it onto your skin, and rinse with water. Using the spatula was too cumbersome for me, and given that the balm's texture breaks down when it touches water, I felt a bit concerned about keeping it in the bathroom.

I immediately fell in love with its great ingredients. Despite initial concerns about the balm clogging pores, those worries disappeared after double cleansing. The scent is a subtle mix of herbs and lemon. As you can see in the photos, it cleanses well. However, lip tints require more rubbing to remove. It's best to use a lip and eye remover first, but if you don't have one, this cleansing balm works with extra rubbing (though be gentle on your skin). It's excellent at removing waterproof eyeliners, lip products, and foundation. It feels heavier than cleansing oil and doesn't roll as lightly, but that's expected from a balm. It's not suffocating though - the feel might be a matter of personal preference. I plan to repurchase. With its good ingredients and effective cleansing, it seems perfect for non-summer seasons.
ConsInitially, it's tricky to control the amount. Unlike cleansing oils or gels where you can adjust as you apply, this balm requires scooping out the right amount with a spatula, melting it, and then using it. If you don't have enough, you need to repeat the process, which is time-consuming. Using too much feels wasteful. Since it's not liquid, it seems like it might run out quickly. Cleaning the spatula is a hassle. The complicated usage and value for money make me reluctantly deduct one star.
TipFor easy cleansing, wash your hands thoroughly with warm water, dry them with a towel, then scoop some cleansing balm onto the back of your hand. Use your fingers to roll and melt it a bit before applying to your face. Avoid cold water!
