Cleansing balm for dry skin: HEEDA Jirisan Moisturizing Charcoal Balm

Does dry skin feel tight after using this cleansing balm?

I have dry skin, so I'm sensitive to any tightness or flaking after washing my face. After using this cleansing balm, I felt less tightness even before applying cream right away, and my skin seemed to stay soft.

The scent isn't strong, just subtle, so even I — someone sensitive to fragrance — could use it without worry. On dry days, it seemed to help keep my skin condition steadier through the cleansing step.

What is the balm texture like, and how do you use it?

The soft balm texture melted and spread the moment it touched my skin. I scooped some onto a dry face, rubbed it in, added a bit of water to emulsify once more, then rinsed with lukewarm water.

The texture felt gentle while rubbing it in, and even on days with heavy makeup, it rinsed off without leaving residue, I felt. Since it can remove makeup and fine dust in one step, I reached for it often.

What changed after using it every day?

With cleansing products, I think how it feels with daily use matters more than any single-use change. As I kept using it, my skin texture and moisture after cleansing felt more comfortable than before.

It's noted to contain 10,000ppm of charcoal, and after use I felt like my pores and blackhead-prone areas looked more refined. That said, this is just based on my own experience.
