Review (5/5): solid balm to oil cleanswer melts away gunk of the day; soothing & hydrating
Lovely gentle and effective balm to oil cleanser. I use it as my first step in dissolving the grime and skin care products I used during the day (mostly SPF, I dont wear makeup but rarely). I have dry skin, semi sensitive and this is soothing feeling as well as non irritating. The combo of Centella Asiatica (soothing, skin health) and Hyaluronic Acid (retaining moisture) are the clear winning ingredients in this awesome oil cleanser.
I dab this oil cleanser all over the face, then let the heat of my hands melt it into my skin. It quickly turns to a spreadable oil to massage in all over. I really like the solid balm to oils over the liquid oils as I find them easier to work with. They also seem to rinse away cleaner? I feel like I could use this Mizon oil balm as my only cleansing step, but I am rather used to doing a 2nd cleanse with a gentle cleanser to wash off any remaining dissolved gunk from the first wash. You'll have to try it out for yourself.
Currently using this gentle, clean, vegan cleanser by To Do List as my second cleanse after Mizon:

I have a couple of double duty balm-to- oil cleansers that I like, and I would consider Mizon Cicaluronic as a repurchase.
