How well did it remove makeup?

I put on eyeliner, eyeshadow, and lip products, then tried removing them. As I massaged the balm over my face, it melted with my body heat and turned into an oil; I added water to emulsify it thoroughly before rinsing. Within what I checked, the makeup came off, and I did not feel any residue after washing.

It has a black balm texture, and the spatula attached to the top of the lid made it easy to scoop out. It had a subtle scent and felt smooth to spread.

After using the cleansing balm, I finished with a cleansing foam once more. I usually feel dehydrated beneath the surface after cleansing, but this time I barely felt any tightness, so it gave me the impression of a moisturized yet fresh finish.
