Charcoal cleansing balm for blackheads, 1-week test: HEEDA

What bothered me about blackheads and sebum?

I was concerned about the blackheads and sebum lingering around my nose and chin. Nose strips felt too irritating, so I stopped using them, and I did not notice much change from foam cleansing alone. Especially in summer, increased sweat and sebum production had me looking for a way to manage it.

How did I use the HEEDA cleansing balm?

I applied the balm to my face, then added a little water and rubbed it in as though massaging. While using it, the balm seemed to turn into an oil. At the end, I wet my hands and rolled it in thoroughly for about 30 seconds before emulsifying it.

What was it like after a week?

After cleansing, my skin felt clean and stayed moisturized. After about a week, the blackheads seemed less noticeable and there seemed to be less sebum than before. Still, these are observations based on my own experience.

Who might find this useful?

It may be useful as a reference for anyone wanting to change up their cleansing step because of blackheads and sebum. Since I had found nose strips irritating, I used it by adding water, rolling it in, and emulsifying it.
