CeraVe Cleansing Balm for Sensitive Skin | Hydrating Makeup Remover with Ceramides and Plant-based Jojoba Oil for Face | Non-Comedogenic Fragrance...

I have used many products but so many of them broke me out including the Anua cleansing oil and wanted to give this one a try and it broke me out as well. It does take makeup off well but doesn't do much for the waterproof mascara. (I use the telescopic mascara) If you don't have acne-prone skin, definitely give this a try.

I skipped by this product at first because a few reviews said it left an oily feel. It doesnt. When you rinse with water the product emulsifies and rinses clean. I was looking for something gentle that would remove mascara and eyeliner. For years Id used makeup wipes and they were fine, until they werent. My eyelids were becoming sensitive, dry, and irritated. I was unsure why, but started trying new makeup removers. None seemed to remove it without a lot of effort which made the irritation worse. I started using Cetaphil Hydrating Eye Gel-Cream to heal my eyelids, and it works great. But, couldnt find a remover for months until I tried this Cera Ve balm. Heres how I use it. Apply about a pea size blob on a super soft microfiber cloth. Rub it in to a quarter-sized circle. Gently wipe the mascara and eyeliner off. For me, it takes a minute per eye. Then I take another small blob, apply it to my forehead and cheeks with my fingers (no cloth), massage it into my entire face, then rinse well with water. Ta-Da! Clean skin that feels great! If I get any product in my eyes, I wipe my lower eyelids with a Q-tip from outer to inner corner. Then apply my favorite skincare. I love it! But, you need to try it out and figure your best application method depending on your makeup and skin needs. Forgot to mention, it has no odor. Great product!

I was looking for a more oily makeup remover due to the need to remove waterproof makeup and provide a more moisturizing treatment for my aging skin (46 years young). I used it by rubbing it into my skin, especially around the eye area, and then used a warm microfiber cloth to wipe it off. I should mention that I have very sensitive skin, particularly around the eyes. My skin tolerated this product well, and I did not experience any discomfort or reaction (especially in the eye region). The product works AMAZINGLY; I love how it removes all makeup and moisturizes my skin in the process. However, the smell is a bit off-putting. It has an artificial and chemical scent that I find unpleasant. Despite this, I will continue using it, especially during travel, because it is convenient and I prefer it to makeup-removing towels or tissues. I would recommend it because it works, but if you are sensitive to smells, I would advise caution.

When you get this delivered, you will be surprised and maybe disappointed that the container is so small, but the disappointment is not warranted. I have had this makeup-removing balm for 2+ months and I have only used less than of the jar, so this will last me a good portion of the year. Granted, I don't wear that much makeup (only water-soluble mascara and brow pencil), but the balm removes both with no issue. Recommend.

I am such a big fan of this cleansing balm! I bought this because I wear eyeliner and waterproof mascara almost daily and I was finding that I would have to wash my face 2-3 times with face wash in order to get the eye makeup off. This product works wonders on my makeup! It takes it right off without issue. The best part- it doesn't irritate my eyes! I usually get a bit in my eyes but it doesn't hurt at all. The only way I can tell that I got it in my eyes is because my eyesight is a little bit blurry between when I use this balm and when I wash with regular face wash (the face wash & rinsing with water clears my eye sight). One callout is that it works best if your face and hands are dry. I instinctively wet my face the first time I used it and it didn't work as well so I was skeptical. Once I did it on my dry skin then it worked like a charm. The product is silky enough so that it isn't irritating at all on dry skin. It actually feels kind of good and soothing.
