Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

Masking, Skin Conditioning

This ingredient is an emollient, solvent, and texture enhancer. It is considered a skin-softener by helping the skin prevent moisture loss.

It helps thicken a product's formula and makes it easier to spread by dissolving clumping compounds.

Caprylic Triglyceride is made by combining glycerin with coconut oil, forming a clear liquid.

While there is an assumption Caprylic Triglyceride can clog pores due to it being derived from coconut oil, there is no research supporting this.

Perfuming, Solvent

Limonene is a fragrance that adds scent and taste to a formulation.

It's found in the peel oil of citrus fruits and other plants such as lavender and eucalyptus. The scent of limonene is generally described as "sweet citrus".

Limonene acts as an antioxidant, meaning it helps neutralize free radicals.

When exposed to air, oxidized limonene may sensitize the skin. Because of this, limonene is often avoided by people with sensitive skin.

The term 'fragrance' is not regulated in many countries. In many cases, it is up to the brand to define this term. For instance, many brands choose to label themselves as "fragrance-free" because they are not using synthetic fragrances. However, their products may still contain ingredients such as essential oils that are considered a fragrance.

I feel like this balm is a good starter if you have more oily skin or wear makeup, but what i didn’t like is that whenever i find rubbing it for longer it to get my sebaceous filaments out it starts to dry my skin the more days i use it. This can be fixed by the amount of product i use, but regardless of that it leaves a slight film even after cleansing with a gel based wash afterwards. I found Show more

Good First Cleansing Balm
This cleansing balm is effective at removing waterproof mascara and sunscreen. However, it can slightly sting the eyes when removing make up and does not emulsify after water is added. You must use a second cleanser to fully rinse away the oiling feeling.
