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.

"Another option for a Cleansing Balm is one that I have used for many years from Burt's Bees. It's also $18. It will work just as well as the Real Actives one."

"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."
