How did the HEEDA cleansing balm feel on dehydrated oily skin?
I tried this as someone with dehydrated oily skin who has used several cleansing oils and balms. I find balm textures suit removing makeup better than oils, and this product left my skin feeling moisturized and soft after use. Since my skin tends to feel dry underneath after cleansing, I especially liked that finish.
What are the texture and spatula storage like?
It has a creamy solid texture, so I scooped it out with the spatula. Once applied to the skin, it melted quickly with body heat. A small spatula comes inside the product, and I could attach and store it in the groove in the lid.
How did I check its sebum and makeup cleansing?
I tried it right after waking up, when sebum around my nose was noticeable. I applied the solid balm to my skin, let it melt, and then wiped it away; afterward, my skin looked clearer in the photo. Beyond the sebum-cleansing feel, I also noticed that my skin texture felt soft after washing.
What skin concerns might make it worth trying?
I think it could suit dehydrated oily skin that feels oily on the surface but dry underneath after using cleansing oil, sensitive skin concerned about breakouts after makeup, or anyone who wants to care for their pores even without wearing makeup. Still, this is how it felt on my own skin.
