Cleansing balm for dry skin, tested 7 months: HEEDA Jirisan

In short

HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Cleansing Balm is a Korean cleansing balm that I used on dry skin for seven months. It removed waterproof eye makeup without stinging my eyes and did not leave severe dryness, though the included spatula kept falling from its holder.

How did this cleansing balm feel after seven months on dry skin?

Cleansing balm for dry skin, tested 7 months: HEEDA Jirisan

After finishing one tub, I started using a new one. The black charcoal-colored balm felt unfamiliar at first, but I got used to it as I kept using it. Since I have dry skin, I tend to avoid products that leave intense dryness afterward, and this one still felt satisfactory after use.

How did it remove eye makeup?

I applied waterproof mascara and eyeliner to the back of my hand, let them dry, and removed them using only the HEEDA cleansing balm. It also cleansed thoroughly on days when I wore both foundation and eye makeup, and I did not experience any eye stinging while using it.

What was disappointing about the container and spatula?

When I first used it, the clear cap did not come off directly; I had to twist the lid section all the way open before it would come off. Also, even though the spatula had a holder groove, it did not stay in place well and would fall off when I closed the lid.

What does the product page say about skin texture and sebum care?

The writer introduced the fine charcoal powder as helping with cleansing by absorbing oil and impurities. They also wrote that they saw clinical figures on the product page related to improved skin texture (unevenness) and pore area after one use, but this is quoted from the product-page information and separate from the writer’s own experience.

Despite the spatula issue, I plan to keep using it because of how it feels to use and how well it cleanses.
