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.


What is the texture of HEEDA's charcoal cleansing balm like?


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.

How does the HEEDA balm feel on sebum and blackheads?


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.

Does dry skin feel tight after cleansing with the HEEDA balm?


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.


How to use the HEEDA Jirisan charcoal cleansing balm

- Took an appropriate amount into my hands and spread it gently over my skin.
- Let it melt with body heat so makeup and buildup would loosen.
- Massaged lightly with fingertips over areas where sebum and blackheads were a concern.
- Rinsed off with lukewarm water and followed with a second cleanse if needed.


What stood out after nearly finishing one jar?


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.
