## In short

HEEDA Charcoal Cleansing Balm is a Korean cleansing balm tested for about 3 weeks on dehydrated oily skin. It felt less residue-heavy than cleansing oil and seemed to reduce makeup settling, though pore-size changes were hard to see.

## Why did I try it on dehydrated oily skin?

I’m in my 30s with dehydrated oily skin. As summer brought more outside work and outdoor activities, I felt makeup settling into my pores more noticeably, so I looked for and tried a balm-type cleansing product. Cleansing oils felt heavy to me, and the fact that this one contains bamboo charcoal was another reason I chose it.

- On a dry face, I used a spatula to apply an appropriate amount.
- I massaged in circles for about 30 seconds, letting the balm texture turn oil-like.
- After adding a small amount of water and rolling it over my skin again for about 30 seconds, I rinsed with lukewarm water.

Using it this way, I felt as though it was cleansing deep into my pores.

## How did blackheads and makeup settling change after 3 weeks?

After using it for about 3 weeks, it felt like less remained on my face than with cleansing oil, so my skin felt comfortable. It was difficult to see an obvious reduction in pore size with the naked eye, but I felt that makeup settled less.

The blackheads around my nose and on my forehead seemed reduced compared with before, and my skin texture felt smoother too. Still, this is the writer’s observation after 3 weeks of use and does not mean every skin type will have the same results.

## What skin concerns might this be worth considering for?

This was an experience worth considering if the heavy feel of an oil cleanser is burdensome and you are concerned about makeup settling or blackheads with dehydrated oily skin. I thought it would be necessary to watch for changes from continued use.
