Dry-skin cleansing balm, two-container test: HEEDA Jirisan Charcoal

Why did I use it as a second cleanse for dry skin?

I have used a cleansing balm and foam cleanser as a two-step cleanse not only on days when I wore full makeup, but also when I wore only sunscreen or tone-up cream. Oil formulas I used before seemed to leave a slippery feeling after rinsing, so I ended up using foam cleanser several times and felt severe dryness immediately after washing.

I am now using my second container of this product. For me, the balm texture did not run, making it easy to massage over the skin, and it felt less tight after cleansing, so I settled into this routine.

What were the texture and application process like?

The product in the container looked like black sherbet. When I scooped it out with the spatula and applied it to my skin, it melted with body heat and spread smoothly like an oil. When I added water, I could see it emulsify into a white color.

The included spatula could be stored clipped onto the inner lid. It was convenient to use while reducing direct contact between the contents and moisture or heat from my hands.

How did I use it for sebum around my nose?

I massaged areas where sebum concerned me, such as around my nose and under my chin, a little longer. For me, it felt more comfortable to manage these areas within my cleansing routine rather than extracting them separately, and the blackheads beside my nose seemed less noticeable.

How was the dryness after cleansing?

I usually feel enough tightness immediately after washing that I reach for a facial mist. My biggest personal point of satisfaction was that after using this cleansing balm, my skin felt moisturized and supple even after I dried off the water.

For my dry skin, the reduced tightness after cleansing and the way the balm melted smoothly suited me well.

What should you check before buying?

I checked this product on Coupang. It would be best to check the seller page and official information again for the price and any product certification or award details before purchasing.
