At first, the dense texture felt like shoe polish - I wondered if it would really roll smoothly on the skin. But when I scooped a small amount with a spatula and massaged it onto the skin, it rolled surprisingly smoothly. The usage experience is quite different from cleansing oils, giving a strong sense of cleansing and removing sebum. ✔️Excellent cleansing ability in removing sebum! Perhaps due to the effects of charcoal, after rolling, emulsifying, and rinsing with water, my face definitely feels deeply cleansed. With cleansing oils, if you don't choose the texture carefully, the rich oiliness can sometimes feel stuffy, but this product has no such issues and leaves a refreshed feeling. ✔️Overall review! Regardless of whether it is selected by the Hwahae Trial Reviewers, I would gladly continue purchasing this with my own money. I feel like I've finally found a primary cleansing product with a highly satisfactory formula.
ConsIt's hard to find any major drawbacks, as the usage experience is so satisfactory. If I had to wish for something, it would be for a larger volume size to be available. With just one use of the spatula, the total amount in the full-size product seems to get used up quite quickly.
TipBe sure to focus on massaging the areas with concentrated blackheads or sebum, such as the T-zone or sides of the nose. Add a bit of water and emulsify it like a cleansing oil while rolling it on. This will definitely boost the sebum removal effect.

So I often feel quite uncomfortable, but when I wash it off with this product, I really feel like my skin is thoroughly cleansed. I'm completely satisfied with it!
ConsIf I think I'll use it every day, the amount is a bit lacking!! I'd love it if a larger size was available.

To be honest, I was worried that the color would be so black that it would look like blackheads stuck in the pores, but it was a needless worry. 2. Definitely less tightness after use. 3. Makeup comes off well! 4. I liked that it spread creamily well. 5. I really dislike having to twist to open, but I liked that the lid just pops open.
Cons1. But I like the squeaky clean feeling, so I do a second cleansing with this alone... 2. The amount is insufficient. It seems too dry to use.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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 container is a black plastic container. It has an internal spatula that can be stored by fitting it into the lid. It's convenient because you open and close the lid instead of twisting it. There is a transparent plastic cover inside, but I just removed it. While the contents don't flow, if you're traveling, the transparent cover would be good to have in case the lid opens. Overall, it seems like a package that really considers the user's needs. The form is a typical balm, with no granules. The scent seems to be charcoal-like, but has a floral note to it. It's hard to pinpoint, but it's a subtle, inoffensive fragrance. With the internal spatula, you can scoop and use it, and a small amount spreads well and removes makeup cleanly (though I don't do heavy makeup, there have been times when eyeliner pencil didn't come off completely during regular cleansing without cleansing oil). Most importantly, it does a surprisingly good job of removing oil. Rolling it on without irritation effectively removes oil, which I'm very satisfied with. While it's a brand I hadn't heard of before, the product itself was very satisfactory, and I plan to purchase this again when I need to buy a primary cleansing product.
ConsThese days, cleansing products have been coming out with great performance and pricing, so a 100ml product at 16,800 won may seem uncompetitive. Since it's not a product with a very short expiration date, having a larger size option would be great as well.
TipSince the product itself is black, when you rinse it off, there is black water around - it's great that you can rinse it off in the shower instead of the sink, so you don't need to clean the sink afterwards.

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.ProsTo begin with, this is a completely satisfactory product!! I have a 10000% repurchase intention~~ # Product Packaging First of all, the product looks luxurious, so it's good that it doesn't ruin the bathroom decor even when placed there. It also seems great for gifting!! It's in a balm form, so a spatula is needed, but the built-in spatula in the product cap is convenient - I don't have to prepare or carry a separate one. # Texture The application is very smooth~~ It spreads out very softly and smoothly~ The feel on the skin is fantastic. # Cleansing Power This is the part I'm most pleased with. There were many reviews praising the cleansing power, but I was a bit skeptical since I've been let down many times before. But the cleansing power is truly GOOD!! I usually wear heavy makeup and eye makeup for work, and I've been double-cleansing my eyes with the oil I've been using. However, this product completely removed everything, including my stubborn undereye and eyeliner, with just the initial application amount. This was the biggest advantage that made me feel I absolutely must repurchase. The amount used was also sufficient - I scooped up the product to the round part of the built-in spatula twice, and that was enough for thorough cleansing. It's not at all wasteful. # Usage Experience To be honest, I'm not a big fan of balm textures, as I find them heavier and more stuffy than oils. But this one feels light and moisturizing~ There's no oily residue, and I like the refreshing finish after use. # Ingredients With a 100% vegan recipe, free of 23 irritating ingredients, and containing Jirisan charcoal and 15 natural ingredients, I can use it with confidence!
ConsThere are no shortcomings, but I personally wish I could use a larger volume at a more affordable price.
TipAfter applying the night cream to my face, I focused on rolling it intensively on the areas where my pores were a concern (for me, it was the nose and chin). The warmth from my hands helped the oil melt the blackheads and whiteheads, and the more prominent ones were quite well-managed. I had quite a few whiteheads on my chin, so I added the intensive rolling process about once every two days. This helped, as even just cleansing my face started to visibly reduce the larger blemishes, and I had to use pore strips less frequently.

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.ProsThis was my first time using a cleansing balm. It was more convenient than cleansing oil and didn't run, which I liked. I'm not sure what the scent is, but it's a subtle one that didn't bother me much. Since I'm not the type to wear a lot of makeup, I'm not sure about the cleansing power, but on days when my face is really oily, I use cleansing oil. This feels like a solid version of cleansing oil. It spreads smoothly and has a similar rolling sensation. I was unsure at first whether I should wipe it off with a cotton pad, but when I washed my hands first, the emulsification worked really well, so I just rinsed it off and finished with a foam cleanser. The finish is also very moisturizing, so I think it will require more effort than cleansing oil.
ConsThere's not really any major downside, but I think those who wear a lot of makeup might find the amount a bit too little.
TipI think it would be good to apply this and then put a warm towel on top when your nose is oily.

It is very soft. *Fragrance: Personally, I felt it had a scent similar to acacia gum, with a floral aroma. Since it is a charcoal cleansing balm, I was a bit worried about the fragrance, but the subtle floral scent was satisfactory! *Cleansing Power: True to its nature as a cleansing balm, it has great cleansing power. It removed my full makeup, including mascara, very well! I usually apply a lot of sunscreen, and it removed that effortlessly as well. I'm very satisfied! I made sure to roll it more on the T-zone area and emulsify it, and it seemed to manage sebum and pores just like the Vanillakko cleansing balm I used before. *Moisturizing: I don't prefer products that make my skin feel tight or dry after cleansing, and this product didn't leave that kind of feeling at all! Especially these days when my skin is dry and my lips are cracked, I think it will suit people like me who have dehydrated and oily skin. After washing my face, I could immediately apply my lotion without any dryness.
Cons*There are some concerning ingredients in the formula, so those with sensitive skin might need to do a patch test. *The fragrance might not be liked by everyone, even though I personally enjoyed it. *The price is a bit high, and the volume is small. Since cleansing balms are used daily, a larger size would be better.
TipAs you all know, if you roll it for a minute or two and go through the emulsification process, you can cleanse more thoroughly.

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 of all, the texture is a silky sorbet-like texture! The cleansing balm I've used so far was only Banila Co, but this one feels a bit softer. I was worried that since it contains charcoal, it might feel gritty or leave residue on the skin after rinsing, but there was absolutely no issue with that.😆 It melts so smoothly, dissolves well, and emulsifies incredibly fast! It turns into a watery texture as soon as it touches water..! I had stopped using cleansing balms in the past because the ones I tried had too many grits that came up, but this one doesn't have that problem at all, and it dissolves blackheads really well - I loved it! The finish is just the right amount of moisturizing, not too oily or dry.
ConsIf I had to nitpick, it would be the small size.. And the spatula doesn't stay fixed on the lid very well, and it falls inside the container when you open it.
TipEmulsification is a must! Dip it in a bit of warm water and roll it around, and it will dissolve the sebum really well.

When the black gets on your face, I wondered what would happen, but it emulsifies and melts into a charcoal gray. I've used products before that were difficult to remove because they didn't emulsify well, but this product melts smoothly on the face and rinses off easily with water. Perhaps because of the charcoal, it feels like it rinses off cleanly without any residue! It wipes off smoothly and evenly without feeling greasy, which I liked. There were no breakouts after using it, and it removed my makeup well, so I'm satisfied.
ConsNot really! The volume seems a bit small compared to the thickness of the container.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.Pros🖤Non-irritating ingredients for acne-prone skin As someone with combination acne-prone skin, I found this product to be quite gentle and easy to use without causing any breakouts or irritation on my face. Among the other cleansing balms available in the market, some can be quite harsh, but I didn't experience any significant irritation with this product. 🖤Refreshing finish I use a cleansing balm almost daily, but the oily and heavy formulas often left a greasy residue, requiring a double cleanse. However, the Heeda Cleansing Balm surprisingly leaves a non-greasy, moisturized feel. 🖤Convenient packaging design Cleansing balms usually come with a spatula attached to the inside of the lid, but the force holding it in place is often weak, and the lid can be quite tight, causing the spatula to fall inside when opening it, which can be inconvenient. The Heeda Cleansing Balm, on the other hand, has a very secure and stable spatula that clicks into place, making it much easier to use.
ConsWhile I'm satisfied with the product's ingredients and overall usage, the only downside is that the product volume is quite small for a cleansing balm. Given that I use it almost daily, I feel like it might run out quite quickly.
TipI don't have any special tips to share, but when using balm or oil-type cleansers, it's important to make sure to emulsify them properly before rinsing off.
