Charcoal cleansing balm for blackheads: HEEDA Jirisan
In short
HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Cleansing Balm is a Korean cleansing balm used to remove long-wear makeup and sebum 3–4 times a week. Its black balm turned white during emulsification with water, and after the first cleanse it left little slippery or oily residue for the writer. Verdict: a lightweight-feeling charcoal cleansing balm when emulsified thoroughly.

What is the texture of HEEDA Charcoal Cleansing Balm like?


I first saw this product through an Instagram Reels ad. Unlike typical cleansing balms, it has a black charcoal-based formula, so it felt unfamiliar at first. I could scoop it out with my fingers or use a separate spatula, and it felt less heavy than I expected.

How did I use it to remove makeup?


I had been looking for a way to remove long-wear makeup and sebum while reducing irritation to my skin. After applying the balm to my face, I added plenty of water to emulsify it and gently rolled it over my skin. It went on black at first, then gradually turned white during emulsification.

In the past, I would only rub cleansing balm around without melting it down or emulsifying it sufficiently, but this time I paid more attention to that process.


How did it feel after using it 3–4 times a week?


I tend to use cleansing oil 3–4 times a week, and I used about one-third of this tub as well. The scent felt like a subtle, non-irritating soapy fragrance, and after the first cleanse with water, my face felt less slippery or oily.

Did it remove bold color makeup in one go?


When I used it, I could wash off waterproof eyeliner, mascara, foundation, and lip color with one cleansing-balm cleanse. I gave areas with blackheads and whiteheads plenty of rolling massage, and results may vary depending on skin condition and how it is used.
