What the gurus are saying

This balm trades some makeup-removing power for a gentler, less oily feel than Farmacy's original formula, making it easier to rinse off. Gurus with sensitive skin found it moisturizing and appreciated the lack of fragrance, though those seeking thorough makeup removal may want the more oil-based original instead. Eye makeup removal was a weak point for one tester, so patch-testing first makes sense if you wear heavy eye makeup.

"I didn't use this as much as I thought I would. Looking at the ingredient list, it has a lot of ingredients I love seeing in a cleansing balm. I don't remember being dissatisfied with the experience, their other cleansing balm leaves a finish on the skin that's difficult to wash off and isn't my favorite, but this one didn't have that problem. It wasn't anything mind blowing, it doesn't compare to my favorites, but I'm going to keep using it and see if I'm really impressed with the results. So far I enjoyed the experience, and I have to give Farmacy props for making this cleansing balm without polyethylene and fragrance."

"This is their newer formula, geared towards those with sensitive skin. This one is darker in color and has less of the oilier feeling. The clearly clean one feels actually more moisturizing compared to the green clean one, which feels oilier. However, it is definitely not as effective at removing makeup as the original green clean because it felt more like a cream and not so much an oil, and oils are going to break down makeup better than creams. If you have sensitive skin, this is not one that is bad to try, especially because it has no scent to it at all."

"The ingredients look good but this is just testament that you can't always judge a product solely by the ingredients because you don't know the formulation or how it works. Based on her beautiful face it looked a little bit raccoonish and I don't believe that the cleansing balm really got rid of all that makeup, and then a little tug with the washcloth, not good for the delicate eye area. But not my favorite, though I have hope in her actual cleanser."
