Lately there were days when my pores looked more visible and my skin felt rough enough that makeup wouldn't sit well. Sebum and blackheads especially built up around my T-zone, so I decided to try a cleansing balm that would gently melt away makeup and buildup.

Rather than being hard, it was a balm that melted smoothly in my hands. Once spread on skin, it turned oil-like with body heat, so I could massage it in gently instead of rubbing hard.

Even with careful cleansing, I usually still had blackheads and whiteheads left around my nose. After cleansing with this product, my pores personally felt cleaner and my skin texture felt smoothed out.

Since I have dry skin, I'm usually careful about dryness after cleansing, but this left my skin feeling moist and soft. In my case, there was little enough tightness that I didn't feel the need to add moisturizer right away.

By the time I was nearly done with one container, cleansing felt like an important step for managing skin texture for me. If you wear makeup daily or worry about sebum and blackheads but find post-cleanse tightness uncomfortable, this experience might be worth referencing.
