ConsCleansing balms seem to be the most difficult to manage with a spatula.

However, blackhead removal does not work well, but foundation cleansing works fine.
ConsThe lid doesn't close well, but other than that, the product quality is quite satisfactory.

When I opened it to take a photo of the contents, there was a spatula inside, and the inner lid didn't seem to come out. I realized that I need to twist open the outer lid and remove the inner plastic cover to use it. The outer container clicks shut, so as long as I close it properly, it shouldn't be a big issue. However, to store the spatula hygienically, I'll have to keep it inside, but since the product is a solid oil, the spatula moving around on top could potentially get the product on it. ⭐️ Fragrance: It's labeled as fragrance-free, but I do get a very faint, slightly sweet scent, reminiscent of getting a coconut oil massage in Southeast Asia. ⭐️ Texture: While it's solid in the container, it melts quickly on the skin and doesn't leave behind any solid chunks. It emulsifies nicely with water, and after a second round of massaging, it rinses off cleanly. ⭐️ Cleansing power: It removes makeup incredibly well! After using an eye makeup remover, I only needed a fingertip-sized amount of this, massaged for about a minute on my face and neck, and then wiped with a toner-soaked cotton pad, and there were no traces of residual makeup left. During dry winter months, I may not even need a second cleanse with a foam cleanser.
ConsSince the opening of the container is wide, the surface area exposed to air is inevitably large, so it is better to take out the necessary amount sufficiently rather than trying to conserve it, and use it up in the short term.
TipSpecifically, there is nothing special, but if you are an intellectual person, you can use this product for cleansing and then use a small amount of foam cleansing, make enough foam, and gently massage your face, and it will feel nice and clean.

ConsI had crushed it beforehand and applied it directly to my face, as it felt slightly less sticky that way. I wonder if it froze due to the weather.

While I prefer oils for sebum control, using them daily is too irritating, so I alternate between cleansing pads and balms. The balm definitely provides an effect similar to oils, but without the inconvenience of it running down my wrists. The constant oil flow was a hassle when emulsifying, and it was really frustrating. The cleansing routine is great, and the formula is soft and sherbet-like, without irritating my skin.
ConsThe double lid... is too inconvenient. It would be great if I could store it with a spatula lid.

My skin is a bit oily. The rolling motion works really well on my face. The formula isn't too thick, so it melts nicely on my face. Since the rolling works well, my sebum also comes out easily, which means my facial makeup gets removed easily too. I mainly use mineral sunscreen, and it all gets removed well except around my eyes. When I do the rolling motion, I can feel the sebum popping out, and it's as effective as cleansing oil.
ConsThe biggest downside of cleansing balms is the cost-effectiveness. It seems like I use it up quickly, but the price is higher than most cleansing oils. Also, the residue left on my face after cleansing feels more like a leftover sensation rather than moisturization, so I probably won't use it again.
TipI usually do a second cleansing because of the slick residue, but my mom who uses it with me says a second cleansing is not really necessary as she doesn't get any trouble.
