Cleansing balm for dry skin and blackheads: HEEDA Jirisan

Recently, there were days when my pores looked more noticeable, my skin texture felt rough, and my makeup clung unevenly. Sebum and blackheads also built up easily on my T-zone, so I decided to try a cleansing balm that could gently melt away makeup and impurities.

What was the texture of the HEEDA cleansing balm like?

Rather than being firm, it was a balm texture that melted softly in my hands. When spread over my skin, it seemed to turn oil-like with body heat, so I could use it with a light massage instead of rubbing hard.

How did it feel for sebum and blackheads?

Even when I cleanse thoroughly, blackheads and whiteheads around the sides of my nose tend to remain. After cleansing with this product, the area around my pores personally seemed cleaner, and my skin texture felt smoother and more refined.

How did post-cleansing tightness feel on dry skin?

Because I have dry skin, I often pay attention to dryness after cleansing. After using it, it tended to leave my skin feeling moisturized and soft. In my case, the tightness felt reduced enough that I did not need to add extra moisture immediately.

How did I use it?

• I took an appropriate amount in my hands and spread it gently over my skin.
• Once the product melted with body heat, I let it loosen makeup and impurities.
• I lightly massaged with my fingertips, cleansing areas where sebum and blackheads concerned me.
• I rinsed with lukewarm water, then followed with a second cleanse if needed.

What did I notice when I was nearly finished with one jar?

By the time I was nearly finished with one jar, I felt that the cleansing step was important for managing my skin texture. If you wear makeup daily or are concerned about sebum and blackheads but find post-cleansing tightness burdensome, this may be a useful reference for its feel.
