The quantity is generous; I used one container for 3-4 days. The cleansing effectiveness is great too. It removes my makeup well without stripping my skin. I love that it doesn't feel rough when massaging it in.
ConsThere weren't many downsides, but if you haven't tried a cleansing balm before, it might feel a bit strange at first. I personally didn't mind the slight tingling sensation! The price is on the higher side. Also, after using this balm, followed by foam cleansing and during skincare steps, I could still feel some slight graininess (I'm not sure if this is normal or not - it would be helpful to have an explanation about this).
TipThis would be really useful for trips or overnight stays. I stored it upside down (without fully opening the lid) with the purple cap facing down! It may not be completely sealed, but it was convenient to avoid transferring it to another container. It worked fine for me this way.

It's a gentle cleansing balm that melts smoothly with your body heat. The ingredients are great and effectively remove skin impurities. It refines dead skin cells and leaves your skin silky smooth. It gently dissolves the texture around your nose area, and your skin texture becomes incredibly soft.
ConsThe amount is small compared to the price. Other than that, I don't have any particular complaints.
TipMelt it with your body heat, then emulsify it with water until it turns white, effectively cleansing away impurities and dead skin cells.

Occasional blemishes and acne. *Packaging & Design: Perfect for travel and on-the-go use. The box opens diagonally, making it easy to take out one at a time. *Scent: Has a blueberry bubblegum-like fragrance. Not unpleasant. *User Experience: When opened, you'll see a purple balm-type formula that melts easily with body heat. I applied it to my made-up face, gently massaged it in, added a bit of water to emulsify, then rinsed. It washed off incredibly clean - I was truly impressed with its cleansing effectiveness. Some products can leave your skin feeling tight after washing, but this one doesn't. It leaves your skin feeling fresh and clean, which I really appreciate. It'll be super handy for travel or as a portable cleanser. The amount in each container seems slightly generous. Even using a small amount is more than enough.
ConsIt didn't cause any blemishes and worked well overall. The only downside is that the quantity seems a bit small for the price.

More satisfied with this than other cleansing balms as it transitions to oil more effectively. As someone with dry skin but frequent sebum buildup around the nose, I prefer cleansing balms *Effects: Cleans pores thoroughly without irritation. Good cleansing effectiveness Biggest advantage: No tightness after cleansing *Overall: Individually packaged for hygiene, and leaves no tightness after cleansing - perfect for dry skin Will repurchase.
ConsThe price is on the higher side, which is unfortunate. It might be best to purchase during sales.
TipOne packet contains a generous amount, so using half at a time is sufficient Excellent for travel use

Compared to the popular Banila Co cleansing balm, I felt that the Tove balm was more hydrating and left my skin feeling cleaner afterwards. (The Banila Co one felt too oily and heavy on my skin.) This balm is suitable for all skin types! It also comes in small packaging, making it perfect for travel!
ConsDue to the small packaging, it's a bit disappointing that there isn't much value for money.

Effectively removes makeup and impurities, helping maintain clean skin 2. Keeps skin moisturized and smooth after cleansing, without any feeling of deep dryness or tightness 3. The collagen ingredient enhances skin elasticity, giving a firmer feeling after use 4. Conveniently packaged in small portions, perfect for taking on trips
Cons1. Slightly pricier compared to other cleansing products 2. May leave a slight residue after cleansing (doesn't give that squeaky clean feeling) 3. The individual portions might be a bit too much for a single use
TipYou can use any leftover product from your evening cleanse for your morning routine, helping maintain hydrated 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.ProsAs someone with sensitive skin prone to redness, I'm always on the hunt for gentle cleansing products. I was thrilled to be selected by The Hwahae Testers to try out this cleansing balm! True to its nature, the balm melts easily with body heat, effectively dissolving makeup. It has an incredibly smooth and silky texture that glides on the skin. After emulsifying with water and massaging thoroughly, followed by a foamy lather, it removed my makeup completely. I can't speak to its effectiveness on mascara as I always use a separate eye makeup remover, but it did an excellent job removing all other face makeup. Each capsule seems perfectly portioned at first glance, but I found it contains enough product for about three uses. It's great for sharing with friends or storing in a small ziplock bag for convenience. On my first use, I actually split the capsule with my mom as it was more than enough for one application. This product is ideal for travel. In fact, I'm currently using it on a business trip and finding it incredibly handy!
ConsI really enjoyed using this product, but there's one small caveat. The scent strongly reminds me of old-fashioned bubblegum, which might not appeal to those who dislike artificial fragrances. Personally, I found the sweet scent quite pleasant and appetizing! One minor gripe - I wish products like these were a bit more affordable. It would be great to see more frequent sales or discounts!

ConsCaused 3-4 blemishes after just one use Expensive considering the quantity (12 uses for $28) Harsh on the skin It stung and felt irritating from the moment I applied it to my skin I understand why other reviews mentioned it feels like a needle shot My skin remained red even after rinsing The next day, I noticed 3-4 blemishes had appeared
TipOne pack contains more than enough for a single use It might be good to split it for multiple applications It's great for travel However, if you're using it at home regularly, it creates daily waste And the price per use is quite high It might be worth trying if you don't experience blemishes But I had to stop using it after just one application caused breakouts

It deep cleanses, removing makeup and impurities from pores. Incredibly convenient for travel! Each packet has enough for 2-3 uses, perfect for short trips. The texture starts firm but melts smoothly when massaged on the face. Clinically tested for 72-hour hydration, temporary relief of dryness-induced itching, improved moisture barrier, and safe for sensitive skin. My skin feels soft with no dryness at all after use. The scent is a subtle, pleasant blueberry bubblegum aroma. Cleansing power is great - it even removes waterproof eyeliner with gentle rubbing.
ConsThe artificial blueberry scent might not appeal to those sensitive to fragrances. The price is a bit high due to the convenient individual packaging. However, it's worth stocking up for travel. I'd deduct one star for the price...

I'll honestly share my experience after using it for a week. 1. Powerful cleansing that removes even eye makeup in one go This cleansing balm dissolves makeup so well that you don't need a separate eye makeup remover, even for shadow and mascara! 2. Gentle cleansing & emulsification With the signature soft texture of a balm, it's gentle on the skin! It emulsifies well, giving the feeling that it's effectively dissolving sebum too. 3. Generous amount per use & individually packaged I found the amount per use to be very generous, and since it's individually packaged, it's convenient for travel or when you're out and about. 4. Sweet grape scent It has a sweet grape candy scent that made using it even more enjoyable.
Cons1. Somewhat pricey Unless you frequently stay out overnight, I wondered if it's really necessary to buy this individually packaged product at this price point. 2. No noticeable special effects Although it's said to contain collagen ampoule, I didn't notice any particular skin improvements because of it! It just feels a bit softer to use, I suppose. (I can't really identify any clear distinguishing features.) 3. Too much product per packet Ideally, you should use all of the product once it's exposed to air after opening, but it seems like too much. At home, I'm trying to use it for about two applications by storing it carefully to minimize air exposure. This means when using it outside, you might end up wasting some or having to use a very generous amount, which is a bit disappointing.
TipRecommended for those who frequently need to cleanse their face outside, like during overnight stays! When using at home, you can be more economical by pressing the bottom of the container to use about half for one application, then storing the rest in a place free from air and moisture to use the next day.
