Cleansing balm for dry skin: HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal

How did the texture and cleansing feel on dry skin?

I tried it when the weather turned cold and my skin felt sensitive. When I first scooped it out, it was a soft, slightly oily balm that melted with the warmth of my hands and turned oil-like.

As I massaged it over my face, foundation, sunscreen, and lip products melted away. When rinsing with water, the oiliness felt as though it emulsified, and there was not much slippery residue left after washing.

Did it leave skin feeling less dry after cleansing?

For my dry skin, it felt moisturizing immediately after cleansing. I barely felt any dryness even before applying toner, and my skin seemed smooth and refreshed.

I also liked that it washed away without feeling as though residue remained on days when I wore sunscreen. I used it around my nose with a massaging motion.

What were the scent and container like?

It comes in a sturdy, round container with a white base and black accents. It sat securely on the bathroom counter.

The scent was not strong; it was subtle, with a charcoal scent mixed with a slightly herbal note. It was not overpowering, so I could use it comfortably while cleansing.

What did I like about using this product?

• It melted with body heat and spread smoothly.
• I used it to remove base makeup, sunscreen, and lip products.
• It left my skin feeling less tight and with less residue after cleansing.
