I decided to give it a try, and I'm pleasantly surprised! It removes even point makeup effectively, which I didn't expect. The texture is like sorbet, melting smoothly on the skin. Compared to cleansing oil, it feels gentler and less irritating. The scent isn't overpowering either.
ConsThere's not really a downside, but I will say this: after being used to pumping out cleansing oil, it's a bit of a hassle to use a spatula to scoop out the cleansing balm.

Emulsifies well. Love the silky, melting texture. As someone with dry skin, this alone helps manage my sebum and dead skin cells to some extent. Great cleansing effectiveness while still being hydrating - that's a win!
ConsThe packaging is absolutely dreadful. It's too easy for water to get in, making it inconvenient to use. It's also unnecessarily bulky, taking up a lot of space despite not having that much product. The spatula it comes with isn't user-friendly either. Causes eye irritation and blurred vision. No improvements to the container, and I'll switch to a better alternative if one comes along. For now though, I reluctantly plan to repurchase...

I highly recommend it for its cleansing effectiveness.
ConsThe downside is that, being a balm type, you need to scoop it out with your fingers or use a spatula.
TipI like to slightly warm it up and gently massage it in circular motions. It gives a nice massage while removing excess sebum - it's great!

I tried it because it's so popular, and I think I'll keep using it. The satisfaction of seeing sebum come out while rolling is amazing...
ConsNothing particularly bad so far. If I really had to nitpick, using a spatula to scoop it out might be a bit of a hassle... I don't like the feeling of it getting under my nails when scooping with fingers.

It feels great when massaging it in. Unlike oils, it doesn't cause tiny bumps! The cleansing effectiveness is decent too.
ConsIt doesn't remove eye makeup very well, and the jar packaging is a bit disappointing from a hygiene perspective. It's a hassle to wash my hands, wipe with a face towel, and then scoop it out. The areas that get wet turn yellow and spoil. While it removes sebum better than cleansing milk, it seems a bit less effective compared to other cleansing balms.
TipThis review compares the product to both oils and other cleansing balms, highlighting its gentle nature and effectiveness in preventing blemishes. However, it also points out drawbacks in makeup removal and packaging design, suggesting room for improvement in these areas.

However, this product leaves my skin feeling soft and supple instead of that uncomfortable tightness. It's a pleasant change! Cleansing effectiveness: I love how it gently dissolves makeup without causing any irritation. The cleansing process is smooth and kind to my skin.
ConsJar packaging: While it's slightly more convenient than pumping out cleansing milk or oil, unscrewing the lid and using a spatula can be a bit cumbersome. I'm also a little concerned about hygiene with the jar format.
TipPro tip: For easier use, I've removed the plastic insert and spatula completely. Now I just open the lid and scoop out the product with my cleansing device. It's so much more convenient this way!

But this one was great! After emulsifying and rinsing, my skin feels perfectly clean and refreshed!
ConsIt would be nice if the container had a compartment to store the spatula, similar to how some toner pads come with a lid for storage.

Cleansing Effectiveness: 4.5/5 It effortlessly removes everything from foundation to mascara and eyeliner. No need for excessive rubbing, allowing for a gentle cleanse without irritation. This one-stop solution even tackles most lipsticks and blushes. However, for long-lasting lip tints, I'd recommend using a dedicated lip/eye makeup remover. Hydration: 5/5 Despite its rich balm texture, it keeps your skin feeling moisturized throughout the cleansing process. I've tried oil, water, and wipe formulas, but this balm type provides the best hydration. Hydration comparison: Balm > Oil > Water > Wipes While those with dry skin will likely be most satisfied, even my combination-dehydrated skin finds it comfortable to use. Sebum (Pore) Management: 4/5 Hand warmth + Cleansing balm = Sebum softening After finishing my third jar, I've noticed a significant reduction in blackheads - that's the most surprising benefit. Its thorough cleansing prevents clogged pores too. The combination of your hands' warmth and the balm makes it easy to extract even stubborn whiteheads. However, it's not specifically designed for sebum control, so those with oily skin might need additional specialized products. Scent: 5/5 It's nearly unscented, with just a hint of fragrance. If I had to quantify it, I'd say it's 95% unscented and 5% fragranced. As someone sensitive to scents, I've had no issues with this product.
ConsPrice: 3/5 The smaller size (100ml) is priced in the low 10,000 won range, while the larger size (180ml) is in the high 10,000 won range. Currently, it's priced at 18,*** won. The smaller size looks quite tiny in person! The price per volume is on the expensive side, which is disappointing. Packaging: 3/5 You use a spatula to scoop out the cleansing balm (it's included!). It's definitely more inconvenient than oil or water types. However, if you're generally interested in skincare, it's a manageable level of hassle!
Tip✔️ I also use it as a first-step cleanser for sunscreen removal. ✔️ Be careful not to get water in the balm, and make sure to keep the spatula clean. Regular washing is recommended! ✔️ The smaller size (100ml) is great for travel. It's perfect for trips longer than two weeks!

It feels lighter than the Nourishing version, so I think it's suitable even for those with oily skin. The scent is also less likely to be polarizing compared to the Nourishing one. The cleansing effectiveness is good. As for sebum removal, I'd say it's average. It doesn't completely fail to remove sebum, but it's not 100% effective either. Larger and more stubborn sebum plugs might not come out easily.
ConsIt would be nice if there was a spatula holder on the lid.

I have dry skin, so after double cleansing, my skin usually feels very tight. But with this, I can gently remove makeup with just one cleanse. Cleansing Effectiveness: You might feel uneasy about cleansing with just a cleansing balm, but this one is sufficient for a thorough cleanse on its own. It even removes mascara well if you emulsify it properly.
ConsPackaging: A spatula would be nice for scooping out the product. There's a plastic cover on top where it sits, but it can be a bit cumbersome. Eventually, I just end up using my hands to scoop it out.
TipIf you gradually add water and roll it thoroughly on your skin, you can cleanse effectively without needing to wash multiple times! Many sets come with a mini size, which is really useful. I recommend purchasing the set if available.
