@Ebichuchu5 жыл бұрын
For anyone that is new to or interested in cleansing balms or cleansing oils: they’re amazing. I have oily/combo skin and I’d never use any other makeup remover. BUT they’re actually best used and should be used (like almost all skincare) outside of the shower. That’s because shower water can be overly drying to your skin. Besides that, cleansing balms/oils work best on completely dry skin, and then you can rinse it off super easily with your hands which will be the least irritating to the skin. I do makeup removal, cleansing, and exfoliating before I shower, and when I get out I tone and do moisturizing steps. Skincare is meant to help maintain skin temperatures which can prevent breakouts and irritation. Hope this helps someone 🤗

About mineral oil: I have sensitive skin and have used straight up cosmetic grade mineral oil to melt my makeup. Mineral oil as a cosmetic ingredient is (to the best of my knowledge) completely benign and won't have much of any effect on the skin, for good or ill, because the molecules are too big to penetrate the skin. The only exception, as with any product, would be if you specifically have a sensitivity to it. According to a couple of dermatologists and cosmetic chemists I follow, sensitivity to mineral oil is relatively rare though.

You are completely correct. It's one of the moisturizing ingredients that are least likely to cause sensitivity. Mineral oil is great.

@brideofsnape20465 жыл бұрын
Exactly, same here. There's a lot of misinformation about mineral oil. People talk like you're putting gasoline on your face or something. Another currently maligned ingredient is lanolin, but there's nothing like it for healing damaged skin. It's a crucial ingredient in some old school creams like La Mer, Nivea, and Lancome's Nutrix. It's derived from sheep's wool, and so just as some folks are allergic to wool, so lanolin can also cause allergic issues. Plus, some decry it as a by product of the meat industry, but even if people stopped eating sheep altogether it could still easily be processed from sheared wool with no harm done to the sheep (unless you think shearing the sheep hurts it, a matter of opinion; I'd disagree as there's plenty of evidence out there that unsheared sheep can grow such a thick/huge coat that it's injurious to their health.) Lanolin is about the only thing besides hardcore cortisone and major dietary restrictions that helps my eczema. All just FYI. ;-) Note also that some vegan or vegetarian ingredients, like shea butter, can be harmful/allergenic--shea butter is derived from a tree nut and we know how some people really react badly to those, etc. It's all quite individual!

@rachelblackwell52075 жыл бұрын
This whole double cleanse ‘craze’ makes me smile. ‘Double cleansing’ in the spa industry has been normal procedure since the dawn of time. It’s even how I was trained in college in 2000. Contrary to popular belief, you do not need to buy or use two separate products for cleansing. You can cleanse twice with the same product. That’s what I’ve always done during facials, removing each application with a hot towel in between. With regards to people using coconut oil or worrying about having a greasy feeling afterwards, a proper cleansing balm should NOT do that. A key ingredient in cleansing balms, following the oil or butter is an emulsifier. You should apply your cleansing balm onto dry skin, massage it all over the face and eyes thoroughly to break down makeup, then gradually introduce water onto your hands and continue massaging. This activates the emulsifier and the balm will turn milky. This is then very easily rinsed away or removed with a hot towel or muslin cloth with NO greasy residue left behind. I hope these tips have helped someone out there. Personally I love cleansing balms. There is no more thorough method for cleansing. My favorite is ESpa’s or the Emma Hardie balm. The Body Shop’s Chamomile balm is a great, more affordable alternative. If you prefer a creamier formula, I cant recommend Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish enough.
@sarahgrey595311 ай бұрын
I’ve just got Clinique take the day off cleansing balm (discounted prices obvs 😂) and I worked out tonight that adding water makes it milky. It’s lovely.

Some ingredients, such as certain plant oils or extracts, can have a really pungent or unpleasant smell that brands want to mask to make their products smell better, but to me it makes no sense? Fragrance can irritate the skin, and I would gladly take a product that smells funny but is non-irritating over something that smells good but really aggravates my skin. Especially since most smells in skin care products don't linger for more than a minute, if that. So there's no harm in having a product that doesn't smell good and there's minimal benefit to adding fragrance, but they do it anyway. Actually I just remembered one moisturizer, the GlamGlow Glowstarter; it had such a strong orange-creamsicle smell that just didn't go away and it gave me a headache. Luckily it was just a sample tube from Sephora that I never touched again.

First time I used it was in the shower. I wasn't impressed. Decided the next day to use it out of the shower and wow, what a difference. I loved how well it cleaned my face (it took everything off!!) and how soft it left my skin feeling. No greasy film, no burning eyes, no bad reaction, nada. I know you don't get a lot but in my case using PF vs Clinique just makes sense. I only wear makeup maybe 5-7 days out of the month so the PF should last me a long time. Thanks for the rec'd Taylor.

I *love* the IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Makeup. You mentioned it smells bad but also that you've had it for years-that's why. The ingredients break down over time. New product has a light citrus aroma.

Simone Gouveia I love it. I’ve had it for months. You literally only need a Lima bean amount or so maybe a tad more if you have a lot of makeup on. Another great one I love is the body shops camomile cleansing balm. It’s been a holy grail. I get it on amazon for $13 or so but it’s just like the take day away balm.

Yeah, I use the Clinique because it's unfragranced. I used their liquid makeup remover for years to take off wp mascara & eyeliner & lipliner & found I was using it on my face too. When liquids became less convenient to travel with I switched to the balm. I avoid the blurry eye thing by doing one eye at a time. It really does take everything off & won't strip your skin.

Love the Clinique one. Also the Estee Lauder version, which has the exact same ingredients but also has safflower oil i think. Any balm that has ethyl hexl palmitate is the one to go for. That's the ingredient that emulsifies to take off all makeup. You're welcome x

The ponds cleansing balm is the exact same thing as their cold cream, same ingredients and everything. I LOVE the original version and its typically around $2 cheaper and you get more in the original one and doesn't have added fragrance. I also have majorly sensitive acne-prone skin and the original cold cream is THE only makeup remover I just. Plus it removes everything with one product.

I love Clinique!! I have been using it since it was first launched, I have tried every other Balm & oil I always go back to take the day off. It's the only one that gets EVERYTHING off & rinses away easily!! No idea why I felt the need to comment on this, LOL. I could have sworn you said once you didn't like it?? Any way as someone who is older with HORRIBLE DRY skin (47) I swear when I use this daily it causes me to go from severely dry skin to skin of dry/normal.Which is a miracle as far as I am concerned. Thanks for all your hard work we all appreciate you more than you will ever know!!! Much love 💖💞😘

Can you do a video on cleansing oils? I prefer cleansing oils over cleansing balms. It’s just too much of a hassle to open up a jar and dig into it with a little spatula that I’ll have to rinse as well to keep everything germ free when I can just press the pump and dispense the oil right into my hands instead.

Target recently added a new brand called Versed and I have been enjoying their cleansing balm. $17. I was nervous at first because it has alcohol but I haven’t found it to dry out my skin at all. I’ve almost used it all up.

Just because a product has alcohol does not mean it is drying. There are multiple different formulations of it in skin-care and it is used as an emulsifier. Watch Dr Dray and labmuffin to learn more.

Maybe not waterproof stuff but I was kind of surprised that a couple bloggers I follow use it as their remover. It has a scent but not bad imo. Plus it gives u some moisture and isn't as harsh as most wipes
