It's great that this cleansing balm isn't as harsh as many others out there. Its gentle nature is a real plus. I bought this cleansing balm mainly for days when I wear heavy makeup, but its cleansing effectiveness doesn't seem to be particularly strong. When it comes to cleansing balms, finding the right balance between effective makeup removal and gentleness on the skin can be tricky. While this product may not be the most powerful for removing stubborn makeup, its milder formulation could be ideal for those with sensitive skin or for daily use when you're not wearing heavy makeup. Consider using it as part of a double cleansing routine for best results. - ru******Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRednessDead Skin CellsRecommendedJun 16, 2025
After using it for a month, my skin texture has truly transformed! It locks in moisture, keeping my skin hydrated. Highly recommended for those with dry skin! When rinsing it off, you need to scrub a bit more thoroughly to avoid any slippery residue. - kk******Combination SkinRecommendedJun 15, 2025
It absorbs beautifully into the skin. It doesn't cause any irritation and seems great for protecting the skin barrier after cleansing. Using the mini spatula to scoop it out can be a bit inconvenient. However, it's nicer than an oil as it's softer in texture. The amount you get is slightly disappointing though. - db**********Dehydrated SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRecommendedJun 15, 2025
The included spoon makes it hygienic and convenient to use. It effectively dissolves even heavy makeup and cleanses well. However, because it leaves your skin feeling moisturized, those who prefer a squeaky-clean feeling might wonder if they've rinsed thoroughly enough. They generously provide samples too, which is fantastic! I dislike feeling dry after cleansing, so I love how this keeps my skin hydrated even after rinsing! But for those who don't enjoy that sensation, it might be a bit disappointing. This cleanser seems to strike a balance between effective cleansing and maintaining skin hydration. It's particularly suitable for those with dry or combination dehydrated skin who want to avoid that tight, stripped feeling after washing. The product appears to focus on maintaining the skin's oil and moisture balance while still providing thorough cleansing effectiveness. For those with super sensitive skin or who are prone to irritation, the moisturizing effect might be beneficial. However, if you prefer a more clarifying or deep-cleansing feel, this product's hydrating properties might not align with your preferences. - tb********Oily SkinEnlarged PoresRecommendedJun 14, 2025
It removes makeup well, feels gentle, and leaves skin feeling nice after cleansing. There's hardly any scent, which is a plus. Being a solid cleanser, it's less convenient to use than liquid ones. The product tends to stick to the spoon. - ku****Oily SkinAcne SkinRecommendedJun 14, 2025
The Pore Barrier Cleansing Balm has a delightful sherbet-like texture that melts gently into the skin - it's absolutely wonderful! It effectively removes impurities from pores and makeup residue with a soft touch. I was thrilled that it left my skin feeling fresh without needing a second cleanse. After use, my skin felt moisturized without any tightness, and the clean sensation without irritation makes it perfect for daily use. It's also free from the typical oily sheen of balm cleansers, so I used it without hesitation. It's fantastic for pore care! While the texture is smooth, it can leave a slightly oily residue after cleansing, which might feel heavy for those with oily skin. A second cleanse almost felt necessary, and the emulsification process was a bit cumbersome. Also, depending on your skin condition, it may cause blemishes, so it's best to avoid using it on sensitive days or do a patch test first. Overall, I'd recommend it more for evening cleansing rather than morning routines. 1. Apply to dry face and massage: Scoop some balm onto your palms and gently massage it onto dry skin - you'll feel the impurities and sebum melting away! 2. Tissue-off tip: After massaging, slightly emulsify with lukewarm water, then wipe off with a tissue for a clean finish without residue. 3. Targeted pore care: For areas with excess sebum like the T-zone or around the nose, do a double massage to help reduce blackheads. 4. Double cleansing combo: Use this balm as your first cleanse, followed by a gentle low pH foam cleanser to maintain hydration while reducing any tightness. Highly recommend this double cleansing method! - aj*****Combination SkinSebum/BlackheadsEnlarged PoresDead Skin CellsRecommendedJun 11, 2025
The cleansing balm is wonderfully gentle and effective. I highly recommend it - everyone should give it a try! It melts a bit too easily, causing it to drip. This is a major drawback, unfortunately. The product's smooth texture is a definite plus, making it pleasant to use. However, its tendency to liquefy quickly can be problematic, potentially leading to waste. Consider storing it in a cooler place to maintain a firmer consistency. - wy*****Dehydrated SkinAcne SkinDark CirclesRecommendedJun 9, 2025
The Pore Barrier Cleansing Balm was absolutely amazing! I was impressed twice - first by the texture that melts gently into the skin, and then by the clean finish without any tightness after cleansing. It effectively removes not only makeup but also fine dust, while cleansing gently without irritating the pores. This makes it truly reliable to use. Especially during this season when blackheads tend to appear more easily, I can definitely feel it thoroughly cleansing deep into the pores. If I had to point out one drawback, The container felt a bit small, giving the impression that it might run out quickly. However, since it melts well and cleanses effectively even with a small amount, I ended up using it for longer than expected! - se********Dry SkinSensitive SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRecommendedJun 7, 2025
I snagged this at a great price during a welcome deal and decided to give it a try. My old cleansing oil was getting a bit long in the tooth, wasn't emulsifying well, and seemed to lack cleansing effectiveness. So, I took a leap of faith with this unfamiliar brand and its balm format - a first for me! The texture is like a soft sorbet that melts instantly upon skin contact. I use the spatula to scoop it out and apply it to my face. Just a light massage with your fingers is enough to dissolve it, and it cleanses quite effectively. After rinsing with water, my skin feels a bit slippery. Personally, I'm not a fan of that sensation, so I follow up with a second cleanse. But that's just my preference, you might feel differently. I haven't experienced any blemishes while using this. If nothing unusual crops up, I might just stick with it for the long haul. The slightly curved spatula was a bit of a nuisance. When scooping and applying the balm to my skin, some product gets stuck in the curved inner part of the spatula. I want to apply exactly what I've scooped cleanly to my skin, but with product constantly left on the spatula, I end up wiping it off with my hands anyway. This makes me question the point of using the spatula at all. As for the packaging, while I appreciate the seal sticker on top, the bottom of the box is oddly flimsy and easy to open. I've never seen packaging designed like this before, to be honest. It seems a bit pointless to have a seal on top when anyone could just open it from the bottom, doesn't it? - do******Dehydrated SkinSensitive SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRecommendedMay 5, 2025
I've been using another brand's cleansing balm regularly, and I decided to try this product because of its good reviews. I always double cleanse, first with a balm and then with a foam cleanser. This product seems to remove makeup similarly to the other brand, but it feels slightly less refreshing. The other brand leaves my face with a noticeable glow after cleansing, while this one has a bit less of that shine. I wonder why that is! I have combination dehydrated skin that's super sensitive, so I can't use just any product. This one seems gentle and non-irritating. I'll make a final decision after using the whole jar, but for now, I'm not sure if I'll repurchase. While it's gentle and removes makeup well, it somehow feels a bit less refreshing.
