What are the texture and components of the HEEDA cleansing balm like?


HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Cleansing Balm had a black texture. It scooped out smoothly without needing to press the spatula down with extra force, and the spatula and inner lid were both inside the cap.



How did I remove heavy makeup?


I spread the balm evenly over my dry face and massaged it in circular motions, focusing on areas where blackheads and pores concerned me. On areas with heavier makeup, I massaged lightly, added water to emulsify it, and rinsed with lukewarm water.

How did the cleansing feel while using it?


Among the cleansing oils and balms I have tried, this one felt especially smooth to spread. It melted quickly once applied to my face, but it did not run, so I worried less about getting it on my clothes.


My face makeup came off well, and the eyeliner and mascara I checked separately were removed too. My face did not feel tight after washing.


The most memorable part was how softly it melted as I removed my makeup.
