It has given me one of my worst acne breakouts ever. DO NOT USE if you are oily/acne-prone skin. It's a very heavy formula, that's not easy to wash off your face even when rinsing it thoroughly. So it always ends up building up inside your pores creating more gunk. Plus, I don't think it's even good at removing waterproof make-up, any micellar water or cleansing oil can do a better job.

Honestly, I do like this. However it’s not the best balm I’ve used. It really does leave a film on your face, which doesn’t work for all skin types, it just happens to work for mine. A little too expensive, definitely get the beauty of joseon one instead.

This is THICCCC. Almost damaging to remove from dry skin.

I got this to try as an alternative make up remover instead of Ponds Cold Cream or Vaseline, and I thought I would be able to put a pump top lid on it - NOPE. Too thick to suck up the straw.

I genuinely don't know what the best use for this product is.
It works at dissolving makeup and sunscreen - but its a PITA to clean off. Show more

it works really well for me it just sucks to take off the skin, since it’s so thick you have to pull and tuck at the skin to get it fully off which just gets annoying
