The texture isn't runny like oil or water, making it easy to wipe off. It has great cleansing effectiveness too. There's a bit of richness to it, so I follow up with a foam cleanser for a double cleanse.
ConsIt's not really a downside, but more of a tip for better cleansing: if you want that squeaky clean feeling, you'll need to use more foam cleanser after this.
TipI apply it all over my face like a massage, then use a tissue to wipe off my makeup.

I love that the balm texture doesn't run or drip.
ConsThere's a slight feeling that it leaves a residue. It doesn't give that squeaky-clean sensation when you wash it off.

ConsI always do a double cleanse with foam after my oil cleanser because I love that squeaky clean feeling. However, no matter how much I use this product, my skin never feels completely clean, and there's always a residue left behind. Also, I don't feel like it removes sebum as effectively as my previous oil cleanser, so I won't be repurchasing

It gently melts into the skin without causing irritation, and I'm really satisfied with how it feels. You only need a small amount for effective cleansing.
ConsWhile it's great for hydration due to the ceramide content, it doesn't give that squeaky-clean feeling some might expect. I've had to make this the first step in my cleansing routine. The packaging is a bit inconvenient - it comes in a tub, so you need to use a spatula every time, which can be a bit of a hassle.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe cleansing balm has a refreshing sorbet-like texture. I mainly use cleansing balms to remove makeup in one go, and this one effectively removed even mascara, which was very satisfying. The citrus scent is delightfully zesty! It has great cleansing effectiveness and a pleasant fragrance.
ConsI didn't experience any blemishes, and the product worked well for me. However, it doesn't leave an ultra-squeaky clean finish, so I did follow up with a foam cleanser for double cleansing.
TipApply the product to your face and massage it in circular motions. Then, wet your hands slightly and massage again for even better cleansing results.

It's my first time trying a balm cleanser, and I'm impressed with the texture, scent, and ingredients. It's a winner!
ConsThis seems ideal for those with dry skin. While it works well for me, people who prefer that squeaky-clean feeling after cleansing might not enjoy it as much.
TipIt's best to keep it away from water. Also, be careful with the spoon since it's stored outside the container.

While it didn't provide a one-step cleanse, it worked well as part of a cleansing routine. Even in dry weather, I could step out briefly after cleansing without applying anything else, and my skin didn't feel tight at all (and I have extremely dry skin).
ConsIt lacks that squeaky-clean feeling no matter how much you wipe, so it doesn't give that satisfying cleansing sensation... (Instead, it feels like it's leaving a moisturizing film on the skin)

The subtle yuzu scent is delightful and uplifting. Thanks to the ceramide ingredient, my skin feels smooth and supple.
ConsThere's nowhere to place the spatula. It doesn't give that squeaky-clean feeling. It might not be suitable for those with oily skin.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsFirst off, the scent is incredibly fresh and pleasant. My previous cleansing balm was specifically for pores and blackheads, which left my skin feeling a bit tight after double cleansing and even caused some irritation. This one, however, has a delightful citrus fragrance and feels moisturizing and gentle while still being rich in texture. It emulsifies well too. The finish is truly hydrating - I don't even need to apply mist or toner right away, it's that moisturizing! Despite its rich consistency, it cleanses effectively. I can massage it for longer without any dryness, which naturally extends my cleansing time. I'll definitely repurchase this. If you're looking for something more hydrating than cleansing oils, with a good balance of moisture and richness, this is for you!
ConsI wouldn't recommend this if you prefer that squeaky-clean feeling after cleansing.
TipTake your time with the emulsification process.

It melts instantly with your skin's temperature, feeling incredibly smooth. During my first use, I left it on for a while and did plenty of rolling, but there was no redness or irritation. The scent is subtle and not overwhelming at all. I used to rely on a separate lip and eye remover for my mascara, but I can skip that step now. Its cleansing power is impressive - it dissolves sebum effectively and works wonders for blackhead management, even on makeup-free days. After neglecting my skincare for a while, I was surprised to see some stubborn sebum come out, especially around my nose area. Post-cleanse, I noticed it had a gentle exfoliating effect, similar to a peeling gel, with dead skin cells rolling off. As someone with dry skin, I appreciated how it left my face feeling moisturized. The emulsification process was smooth - no messy white residue running everywhere. After rinsing, my skin felt clean without any tightness, just fresh and comfortable. I think I've found a gem in iRecipe's product line. Their skincare range is great too, and I'll definitely keep purchasing this cleansing balm. The pleasant user experience makes me want to wash my face more often and spend extra time massaging it in.
ConsI didn't find any downsides. However, those with oily skin might need to follow up with a foaming cleanser for that squeaky-clean feeling.
TipFor those who always use a separate lip and eye remover for mascara, try this: apply the balm over your eyes first, keep them closed while massaging the rest of your face, then finish with the eye area. It removes mascara completely. Also, it's great for targeted T-zone treatments.
