I knew Banila Co. was famous for being good. Before trying this balm, I had used oils, waters, and wipes, but my makeup never came off completely, and my skin always reacted badly. You see, I have dry skin that's oily on the surface but extremely dehydrated underneath - a combination dehydrated skin type. Considering my super sensitive skin, I always make sure to double cleanse thoroughly to remove any remaining impurities. Fortunately, this cleansing balm suits my skin best. It doesn't cause any adverse reactions. I've decided to stick with this cleansing balm for years to come. I'm currently on my second tub, having used both the 100ml and 180ml sizes. I'm planning to try other varieties from Banila Co.'s cleansing balm line, considering their cleansing effectiveness and ingredients.
ConsThe only downside might be that it doesn't remove everything completely on its own. However, I've heard that cleansers that are too strong can actually damage the skin barrier, so I don't really see this as a significant drawback. It still cleanses very effectively.

The balm-like texture makes it a breeze to scoop out with the spoon and apply to your face. Even those with oily skin can use it without irritation, and it doesn't leave your skin feeling tight after washing.
ConsHowever, it seems the cleansing power might be slightly less potent compared to oil cleansers.

First off, it removes about 80% of makeup even before emulsifying. After emulsifying, it's amazing how it draws out stubborn sebum - I was shocked at how much came out when I first used this product! The best part is that it doesn't leave your skin feeling tight afterwards.
ConsNo complaints whatsoever! I'm extremely satisfied. If you're looking for something to effectively remove makeup, I'd definitely recommend this.
TipThis cleanser works hard to deep clean your pores while maintaining your skin's oil and moisture balance. It's great for combination dehydrated skin types and those prone to blemishes. The cleansing effectiveness is impressive, yet it's gentle enough to avoid irritation or redness. It absorbs well into the skin without any sticky residue or pilling.

ConsAfter using it daily, it feels a bit irritating? But I think that's just my sensitive skin... There's nothing wrong with the product itself.
TipThe reviewer appreciates that the product doesn't cause skin tightness after rinsing, which is often a common issue with cleansers. However, they also note some mild irritation with daily use, though they attribute this to their own skin sensitivity rather than a flaw in the product. This suggests the product might be suitable for those with less sensitive skin, but those with very sensitive skin may want to use it cautiously or less frequently.

What's even better is that it doesn't cause any irritation or leave my skin feeling dry afterwards. I use it every day to remove my makeup and I can see myself continuing to do so in the future. It even comes with a spatula, which makes it both convenient and hygienic to use. If you're looking for something to effectively remove your makeup, I highly recommend this product!
ConsI honestly can't think of any downsides to this product. If I had to nitpick, I'd say that because it's so good, I use it frequently and in generous amounts, so it runs out quickly... but is that really a bad thing?
TipThis cleanser seems to strike a perfect balance between effective makeup removal and gentle skincare. Its non-irritating formula and moisturizing finish make it suitable for daily use, even for those with sensitive skin. The inclusion of a spatula is a thoughtful touch, addressing hygiene concerns. While the product's quick depletion due to frequent use might be seen as a minor inconvenience, it's more a testament to its effectiveness and user satisfaction.

As someone with dry skin, most cleansers would leave my face feeling tight after washing. But with the Banila Co cleansing balm, that feeling is so much less noticeable! If you're thorough during the emulsification process while cleansing, you'll notice a reduction in skin texture, leaving your complexion feeling incredibly smooth overall!
ConsIt can be a bit of a hassle having to use a spoon to scoop out the product, but I suppose that's unavoidable given its balm form.
TipUse it for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, making sure to apply thoroughly. Pay extra attention to areas where you're concerned about blemishes or uneven texture!

The cleansing oil leaves no residue after washing, making my face feel refreshed. My skin doesn't feel overly dry after cleansing - it's just right. As for cleansing effectiveness, it removes everything incredibly well. While I didn't notice much effect on blackheads, it does an excellent job removing even eyeliner and mascara!
ConsIt's disappointing that I didn't see significant results for blackheads. However, I've heard that the green version might be more effective for blackheads and dead skin cells, so I plan to try that one next time.

It's amazing at removing sebum, and I love it so much that I've gone through not just the one in the photo, but also a 180ml bottle and three 100ml ones. If you're looking for a cleanser that doesn't leave your skin feeling tight and delivers powerful cleansing in one go, I highly recommend this.
ConsThe only downside is the amount you get. A 100ml bottle only lasts about a month when used by one person...
TipThis cleanser works hard to keep your skin clean without causing irritation. It's great for those with combination dehydrated skin or super sensitive skin, as it effectively removes dead skin cells and excess oil without disrupting your skin's natural oil and moisture balance. The cleansing effectiveness is truly impressive, making it a must-try for anyone looking to improve their complexion.

Being a solid cleanser, it's perfect for travel - so convenient to carry around!
ConsYou absolutely need to emulsify it, and if it gets in your eyes, it can cause a bit of blurriness. Make sure to rinse thoroughly.
