[Review] Dear Me Beauty 30 Seconds Meltaway Balm

Cleansing is the first thing I do before doing my whole skincare routine to clean all impurities, including dirt, makeup, and even sunscreen residue. I think it's not enough just using only one cleanser in a day especially when I actively go out so it makes sense to do the double cleansing method. For my first cleanser is a cleansing balm from Dear Me Beauty, another local brand in my skincare regime. This is surprisingly affordable for me (I also bought on a discount lol) and of course, I'm into it! This cleansing balm has 2 variants; Honey 🍯  and Peach 🍑  The only difference is just the scent, it will work like it should whatever you choose.

Jar Packaging

Like usual, I pay attention to its packaging 👀  and Oh My God, I'm impressed! It includes a spatula to scoop the balm without dipping my finger in it which is quite sanitary, just don't forget to wash it though. It can be found inside the lid so if you wanna open the product, simply just rotate the cover. The design is simple, minimalist, but doesn't look cheap. With such price, I wanna say thank you for Dear Me Beauty for designing this packaging thoughtfully 😆

Spatula Included

Close-Up Texture

Like a common cleansing balm in the market, this is oil-based and it feels smooth. Once you rub it either on your palm or directly on your skin, it immediately melts into an oily texture. I tried to remove my makeup including waterproof mascara and eyeliner, and it effortlessly melts them and gets emulsified by water. Don't forget to close your eyes to remove your eye makeup!

Ingredients:

Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Tridecyl Isononanoate, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, PEF-12 Diisostearate, Polyethylene, PEG-20 Glyceryl Triisostearate, Tocopheryl, Tocopheryl Acetate, Phenoxyethanol, Caprylyl Glycol, Parfum.

After cleansing my face, I don't feel any tightness and dryness at all. In fact, my skin feels smoother and soft! You can see in the ingredient, it contains parfum to give peach or honey scent so be careful on your first try especially who has sensitive skin. It's on the lowest ingredient list and it doesn't irritate my skin so I don't mind at all.

By the way, I was curious about all the hype of deep cleansing with a cleansing balm. Eventually, I tried with this and rub for 10-15 minutes. All I can say is, Yes it definitely works. I could see some oil plugs on my palms, and some white dots on it. I'm sorry I didn't take the picture though because I have bad camera quality 😂  But you can try by yourself and see with your own eyes that even if you wash your face with cleanser every day, you still find some impurities. You will feel tiny granules when you rub continuously! 

Overall, this cleansing balm is the bomb! Really great for double cleansing without leaving your skin dry. After all the review, I would say this is recommended 👌

Have a nice day.
