This cleansing balm is formulated as the first step in a Korean-style double cleansing routine, designed to dissolve makeup, sunscreen, and excess oil without stripping the skin. The key ingredient is papaya enzyme, a natural exfoliant that gently breaks down dead skin cells and impurities when massaged onto dry skin. The balm transforms into a silky oil upon contact, allowing for smooth removal of waterproof and long-wear makeup, including mascara and lip products.

Formulated with a blend of moringa oil and shea butter, the balm helps maintain the skin’s moisture barrier while cleansing, leaving the face feeling hydrated rather than tight or dry. The papaya enzyme provides mild enzymatic exfoliation, which can help improve skin texture and clarity over time, without the abrasive effect of physical scrubs. This makes the product suitable for most skin types, including sensitive and combination skin, as long as the user is not allergic to papaya or any other listed ingredients.

The balm has a lightweight, non-greasy texture that rinses off easily with water or a damp cloth, leaving no residue. It is free of sulfates, phthalates, and synthetic fragrances, though it contains natural fruit extracts that offer a subtle scent of papaya and berries. The 3.38 oz (100 g) size is packaged in a recyclable jar, and the formula is cruelty-free.

This product is intended for daily use as a first cleanser in a two-step routine, followed by a water-based cleanser. It is not a treatment product, but rather a functional makeup remover and pre-cleanser that provides gentle exfoliation through its enzyme component. Consistent use may help refine pores and brighten the complexion, though individual results depend on skin condition and routine.
