Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Peg-20 Glyceryl Triisostearate comes from Isostearic Acid and glycerin.
It is an emollient, emulsifier, and gentle cleanser. As an emollient, it helps trap moisture to keep skin soft and hydrated. Emulsifiers help prevent ingredients from separating.
This ingredient is common in oil-based products. This is because it helps oil-ingredients be easily washed away without leaving a residue.

I like this cleansing balm but it isn't my favourite. The balm doesn't melt down enough so it takes a long time to work it into my skin. I don't find that it cleanses my skin as effectively as other cleansing balms and the yellow colour almost stains my skin. There is a slight scent, definitely isn't overpowering though. I do love the packaging!
It’s just okay for me. I received in a box I subscribe to and I don’t find myself reaching for it
