What it is
The melting balm when applied to the skin wraps around the dirt and sebum clogging the pores, removing them with minimal friction, allowing for thorough makeup removal. It also contains moisturizing ingredients and ingredients that treat skin problems, making it an item that can care for your skin while removing makeup. It is an additive-free formula, so it can be used daily by those with sensitive or delicate skin. It is an excellent product that thoroughly removes makeup without causing any irritation to the skin. It is a retractable cleansing balm that can be used by scraping off only the amount needed, and has a high sealing power, so water and air do not mix with the balm, making it a hygienic and safe item.
