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

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. I would Show more

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.
