Beauty of Joseon Radiance Cleansing Balm
A soft cleansing balm that melts away sunscreen and makeup as a gentle first step.
What it is
A solid cleansing balm with rice extract that turns into an oil on warm skin to dissolve sunscreen, makeup and the day's grime. It rinses away with water and is meant as the first step of a double cleanse. The gentle formula does not leave skin stripped, which is why drier and sensitive skin like it. This is the 100ml jar.
What reviewers say
Reviewers say it melts sunscreen and everyday makeup easily and leaves skin soft rather than tight, and many find it gentle enough for sensitive skin and around the eyes. The honest notes: heavy or long-wear makeup can need a bit more massaging and may leave a little residue, it can take a moment to rinse fully clean, and, as a jar balm, it is best scooped with dry hands or a spatula for hygiene. Always follow with a second cleanse.
