Love this product!

Yes, I recommend this

I tried this from the M&S beauty advent calendar and I was immediately impressed with it. I’ve always used liquid cleansers but this makes my skin feels so much cleaner and softer. It’s fabulous!

This balm cleanser is great. Takes make up off easily and leaves skin feeling fresh and nourished. I’m not overly keen on the scent.

Excellent cleanser

Yes, I recommend this

Only need a little bit yet it melts into your skin, gently removes make up off your face and leaves it feeling clean and soooo soft afterwards. Great for sensitive skin and does NOT irritate the eyes unlike other balms.

Love this product, used for many years and was glad to restock under the recent beauty offer. It is gentle on skin and eyes but does need a thorough wash off.

Holy grail product

Originally posted on clinique.co.uk

Yes, I recommend this

I've tried so many cleansing balms and this is by far the best! Easily takes off all make-up and rinses off easily with water without leaving residue (although I would still recommend following up with a foamy cleanser). It is the only cleansing balm that does not sting my eyes. I will not use anything else!

Good quality cleansing balm

Yes, I recommend this

I always use cleansing balm and in the past,use M&S or E H cleansing balms. However EH is expensive like this one so I only buy them where they are on offer. This balm is lovely and worth its price. It goes on easily and washes off well, without feeling dry

This has become my staple in my cleansing routine - i used to just cleanse once by micellar water but noticed how much better my skin is by using this balm to take off all my makeup - it literally melts off all my foundation and mascara!!
