The best part? It doesn't sting my eyes even if it gets in them! It's also great at removing sebum. There's a noticeable difference between the nights I use it and the nights I don't. I didn't expect much in terms of cleansing effectiveness, but if you emulsify it thoroughly, it removes almost everything in the first cleanse. I was pleasantly surprised! The scent is neutral - neither love it nor hate it, which is perfect. It comes with a little spoon inside, making it super convenient to scoop out and use.
ConsGiven its price point, I found myself using less and less product over time.
TipIf I need my makeup to look flawless the next day, this is my go-to cleanser.

Instead, it feels moisturized and soft. With other cleansing products, my skin often felt tight, but with Dr.G's cleansing balm, there's no such sensation whatsoever. The hydration is well-maintained, so my skin feels comfortable even after cleansing.
ConsThe product doesn't come in a particularly large size, so if you use it frequently, you might run out quickly. Given its somewhat higher price point, it could be a bit of a burden for those who use cleansing balms often.
TipWhen applying the cleansing balm to your skin, if you gently massage it for over 10 minutes, it helps soothe small blemishes and adds a massage effect. This leaves your skin feeling softer and healthier after use.

It cleanses effectively, and after using it, your skin feels as soft as a baby's.
ConsThere weren't any downsides. The price is a bit steep for frequent use, but I'll just have to use it sparingly.
TipEven when you're not wearing makeup, if you roll it on your skin, it helps remove a lot of excess sebum.

Smooth application: Despite being a balm, it applies smoothly, making cleansing a breeze. Convenient packaging design: I was initially concerned about where to store the scoop, but I discovered it's designed to sit on top of the container. So practical!
ConsSlightly higher price point: It feels a bit pricier compared to the average cleansing balm. I'd recommend purchasing it when it's on sale!

Container: While I'm not a huge fan of jar packaging, I really appreciate the thoughtful detail of including a spatula holder! Scent: It reminds me of a product I've used before, though I can't quite place which one... I usually dislike strong fragrances, but I found this one quite pleasant! However, the scent is noticeable when applied, so it might not be everyone's cup of tea. Personally, I found it more agreeable than the Banila Co cleansing balm. Irritation: It applies incredibly smoothly, causing no physical irritation! While the ingredients aren't exceptional, I didn't experience any blemishes. Still, there are two potentially risky ingredients, so please check before purchasing! Cleansing effectiveness: I was pleasantly surprised by how well it worked! I tested it on the notoriously long-lasting Peripera tint, waterproof eyeliner, and foundation (see photo below), and it removed almost everything! It's effective enough that a thorough first cleanse might be sufficient.
ConsThe price might be a bit steep if it's not on sale. A tube packaging would probably be more convenient to use.

I used to use another brand's cleansing balm, but for the past few years, I've been using cleansing milk. Recently, I noticed many cleansing balms hitting the market, and since Dr.G is a brand I trust, I was curious to try this one. I'm happy to say it's great! The texture is like a soft sorbet that transforms into an oil-like consistency on the skin. I appreciate that it's not heavily scented. The scoop that can be attached to the lid makes it convenient to use. While I use a separate lip and eye makeup remover, this balm is excellent at removing face makeup. I usually just wear sunscreen, but when I do a full face, this is my go-to product. For my second cleanse, I use the same foam cleanser as before. Compared to when I used cleansing milk for my first cleanse, my skin feels noticeably less dry after using this balm. As the weather gets drier, I'll definitely be reaching for this product often. Most importantly, I didn't experience any blemishes. I was worried because oils and balms can sometimes cause breakouts for me, but this non-comedogenic product didn't cause any issues. In fact, my complexion seems to have improved!
ConsIt's not the cheapest option out there, so it might be best to purchase it when it's on sale.

I couldn't find any information about it either... While it doesn't contain any specific fragrance ingredients, I absolutely loved the scent. Satisfying Application: First off, it spreads smoothly and applies with a velvety soft texture. When you massage it in, it transforms into an oil-like consistency, but surprisingly, it's not thick at all - it feels incredibly lightweight. It emulsifies beautifully when you add water, making it completely different from your typical balm-type cleanser. Texture: Using the included spoon, you'll notice the texture is incredibly fine and scoops out smoothly. It's not exactly a sherbet-like texture, but while it's definitely solid, it's not hard at all. Non-comedogenic: Despite having dry skin, I tend to break out easily if a product contains pore-clogging ingredients. I even use cleansing oils just for cleaning my cushion puffs. So I was really pleased to hear this doesn't clog pores. Given its texture, I can't use it to clean cushion puffs (well, I could, but it feels a bit wasteful), but I'm looking forward to using it for sebum removal. Eco-friendly: I was immediately drawn to the fact that it's made from 'ugly' avocados that wouldn't be sold otherwise. It makes me want to use the product even more conscientiously.
ConsPrice: The packaging design with the spatula attached to the container probably increases production costs, but the price is still on the higher side. The application feels great and I haven't experienced any blemishes, so I haven't found any other downsides yet. Packaging Color: I think they were trying to emphasize the avocado theme, but the color reminds me of military uniforms and looks a bit cheap. It's a shame because the actual color of the product itself is quite pretty.
TipRemember to massage it on dry skin! Don't add water right away!

The sherbet-like texture is easy to scoop without being too hard, and it melts smoothly during application. It effectively dissolves makeup while providing great hydration. I also appreciate that it's made from upcycled avocados. While many products marketed for sebum cleansing haven't worked well for my skin, this one didn't disappoint. My skin tends to produce a lot of sebum with small pores, leading to oxidized sebum inside. Although complete removal is challenging, this balm seemed more effective at sebum cleansing compared to others I've tried. The click-open lid and built-in spatula that can be stored inside the product are convenient features that prevent loss. Overall, I'm very satisfied! I'd recommend this to anyone dealing with sebum issues or those still searching for their perfect cleansing balm.
ConsThere's not much to criticize, but if I had to nitpick, I'd say the inclusion of PEG and fragrance in the ingredients is slightly disappointing. Also, the price is a bit high when not on sale. I'd suggest checking various shopping sites and purchasing during promotions.
TipIn my opinion, it's challenging for any cleansing balm to perfectly remove all makeup without causing irritation. I recommend using a separate makeup remover first, then focus on skin cleansing with this balm, making sure to use enough product and massage thoroughly.

I start with a cleansing oil or milk for the first step, then finish with a foam cleanser. I've never tried a cleansing balm before, so I was curious and applied for this. I'm thrilled to have been selected! Dr.G is famous for their hydrating cream, so I have high expectations for this. The texture is solid like Vaseline, but not hard. It's easy to scoop with a spatula and melts nicely when rubbed between your hands. When it melts, it feels oily, similar to a cleansing oil. It emulsifies well and doesn't irritate my skin. The scent is subtle, with a gentle floral note. As for performance, I've been using cleansing oils for years before switching to cleansing milk, but this cleansing balm is surprisingly good! It seems to have slightly reduced the appearance of blackheads on my nose. I was worried it might leave a slippery residue after rinsing, but it actually leaves my skin feeling clean and refreshed. It removes makeup effectively, though for heavy makeup, I still follow up with a foam cleanser.
ConsThe main drawback seems to be the price. Since it's a product used daily, it might be a bit expensive for some. I hope they offer sales frequently!

ConsThe price feels a bit steep compared to what you get. However, it's currently half off during the Olive Young sale, so now might be a good time to grab it.
