Cleansing balm for dehydrated oily skin: HEEDA Jirisan Charcoal
In short
HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Cleansing Balm is a Korean cleansing balm that I tried daily on dehydrated oily skin. It felt as though it cleared sebum while leaving less post-cleanse tightness for me, though that was only my personal experience.

How did it feel to cleanse dehydrated oily skin?
My skin starts to get oily about an hour after cleansing, yet feels dry underneath, so choosing a cleansing balm was difficult. When I gently massaged one scoop over my face, it felt as if the little sebum granules in my pores were being cleared away.
How did post-cleanse tightness and oiliness feel?
Because it contains squalane and jojoba seed oil, I paid close attention to how it felt after cleansing. For me, the feeling of tightness was not strong, and it seemed to leave moisture behind while refreshing away sebum and impurities. Still, this is an observation based on my own skin.
Were the container and tool convenient?
It came in a round black plastic container, with an additional plastic inner lid. The included spatula felt hygienic when scooping out the product, and it could be stored inside the container.
Would I keep using this product?
I had been trying several cleansing balms, and the post-cleanse moisture and feeling of sebum removal suited me well. I plan to keep using it.
