Why did I choose a cleansing balm for blackheads and dryness?


I had been concerned about visible pores and severe blackheads for a long time, and my skin also tends to be dry and rough. I had previously double cleansed with an oil and foam cleanser, but while looking into cleansing balms, I decided to try HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Cleansing Balm.

What were the texture and packaging like?


Inside the black cylindrical container were a spatula and a clear protective cap. The balm I scooped out with the spatula was solid at first, but when I rubbed it onto the back of my hand and my skin, it melted with body heat and turned into a soft oil.

How did I use it?


I applied an appropriate amount to my skin and massaged it gently. Once the balm had melted like an oil, I added water to emulsify it. I then massaged for about 30 seconds, rinsed thoroughly, and lightly double cleansed with a foam cleanser.

How did my skin and nose feel after the first use?


After cleansing, my skin did not feel tight and felt moisturized. I also felt that my skincare products sat less on the surface when I applied them, and after one use, the blackheads that had been visible on my nose seemed reduced, so I was personally pleased. As for changes in my pores, though, I plan to keep using it and watch a little longer.
