Cleansing balm for blackheads: HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal

What was the texture like when blackheads and dead skin were bothering me?

I tried it when I was concerned about makeup residue, blackheads around my nose, and dead skin. It was a firm balm in a black container, and there was a separate space under the lid to store the spatula.

According to the original description, it contains Jirisan charcoal and 15 naturally derived moisturizing ingredients. It also states that no artificial fragrance or colorants were added.

How did it melt and emulsify on my skin?

When I scooped it out with the spatula and applied it to my face, it softened with my body heat and turned into an oil-like texture. After massaging my whole face, I rubbed around my nose a little more carefully.

When I added water, I could see the oil turn milky as it emulsified. Because the formula is black, I found it easy to distinguish the areas I had massaged.

How did my skin feel after cleansing?

It felt as though it rinsed away cleanly without residue. Although there was a squeaky-clean finish, my skin felt less tight afterward. The area around my pores seemed cleaner, and I felt less dryness—enough that I did not need to rush to apply skincare immediately after cleansing.

I also kept using it when the skin around my mouth was not in good condition. Skin reactions can vary from person to person.
