What they liked

  • Removes makeup without leaving an oily film
  • Affordable compared to similar balms
  • Gentle enough to skip a second cleanse

What they flagged

    Nothing. None of the experts who reviewed it raised a problem.

    What the gurus are saying

    No oily residue after cleansing. That's what stands out about this balm. After washing away, it leaves skin clean without the shiny film typical post-cleanse balms leave, so people skip the second cleanse and reduce dehydration and barrier stress. Experts who've used it confirm it's just as effective as pricier options at $18 and note it's particularly gentle on the skin barrier.

    "Burt's Bees Dissolve Cleansing Balm is one of my top recommendations for a double cleanser, very affordable. This is the jumbo size because I really use this a lot. So what you'll do is you'll just grab a little bit of this and massage it into any eye makeup areas, quick layer on the skin, rinse that off, then you'll go in with your water-based creamy cleanser and that is your cleansing step."

    "This cleansing balm is really nice. It does a really good job and after you wash it away it does not leave a shiny oily film on your face, so it [...] saves you needing another cleanse and reduces dehydration and damage to your skin barrier."
