Dry-skin cleansing balm makeup test: HEEDA Jirisan Charcoal Balm

In short

I tried HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Cleansing Balm, a Korean cleansing balm, while looking for a compact option for dry skin. In my makeup test, the black balm melted into oil and removed mascara and concealer cleanly, leaving a fresh feel without noticeable tightness or residue.

How did the texture and feel work for dry skin?

For travel, I find a cleansing balm more convenient than an oil because it takes up less space, so I tried one again after a while. Inside the lid were a dedicated spatula and a plastic cap to protect the product, and after use, I could store the spatula in the groove in the lid.

The product was a deep black, reminiscent of charcoal. It was a balm when I scooped it out with the spatula, but it scooped smoothly; when I rubbed it on the back of my hand, it quickly turned into an oil. It was described as containing charcoal powder, but I did not feel any granules, and it spread smoothly even after turning into an oil.

Did it remove mascara and concealer?

I tested it with the makeup products I normally use. Mascara and concealer sometimes remain depending on the cleansing product, but this one removed them cleanly for me. Even without a second cleanse, it felt thoroughly washed off and finished fresh, without noticeable tightness, residue, or slipperiness.

According to the original product introduction, it contains 10,000 ppm of natural Jirisan charcoal and is a vegan cosmetic containing camellia oil, jojoba seed oil, rice bran extract, green tea water, and more. It also presents a low-irritation three-step emulsification process and clinical results related to pore and blackhead care as product features. However, this review is based on my one-time makeup test and my experience using it.
