What is a Cleansing Balm?
A cleansing balm is an oil-based skincare product that comes in a solid state and is designed to remove makeup and cleanse the skin. Unlike liquid cleansers, it works to eliminate impurities and makeup residue while replenishing the skin with nourishing oils. Unlike traditional foaming cleansers that may strip the skin of its natural oils, the cleansing balm promotes a healthy oil balance, reducing the likelihood of excess oil production.

- *I love to use this recipe to remove my eye makeup. If you use this recipe for eye makeup removal, skip adding the essential oils. Essential oils shouldn’t be used near the eyes.
