A sherbet balm that melts away make-up and keeps skin comfortable
Beauty of Joseon Radiance Cleansing Balm is an oil-based cleansing balm for all skin types and the first step of a double cleanse. Its soft sherbet texture melts on contact to dissolve make-up, sunscreen and sebum, including mascara, eyeliner and lip colour, without stinging the eyes. Inspired by traditional Korean beauty, it contains rice bran oil and several grain extracts that moisturize, so the skin never feels stripped or tight.
The texture
A solid, sherbet-like balm that stays stable in a warm, humid bathroom, then turns into an oil when massaged onto dry skin. It emulsifies into a milk with water and rinses clean.
Who it suits
- All skin types, including dry and sensitive
- Anyone who wears long-lasting make-up or sunscreen
- Double cleansing fans
- Skin that feels tight after foaming cleansers
Worth knowing before you buy: This is the first step of a double cleanse: follow with a water-based cleanser if you have oily or blemish-prone skin. Always use the spatula to keep the jar clean.
How long one jar lasts
With a coin-sized scoop once a day, the 100ml jar lasts about two to three months.
