Purifying
Claims:
➛ 3-in-1 cleansing balm
➛ Removes waterproof makeup and impurities
➛ Hydrates and soothes skin
➛ 7 active botanicals
This is one of the Zero Cleansing Balms in Banila Co’s cleansing balm line. It’s a 3-in-1 cleansing balm that removes makeup, impurities, and purifies the skin. It contains 7 active botanicals that all work together to soothe the skin and calm any irritation. It has a thick balm texture that turns into an oil once lathered onto the skin, along with a strong floral fragrance.
This is an effective cleansing balm. It removes makeup well, and I don’t need to use a lot at a time. It’s easy to wash off and doesn’t leave my face feeling greasy after. I also really like that it comes with a spatula, and a little lid that holds the spatula.

➛ Synthetic Wax (emollient)
➛ Butylene Glycol (moisturizes skin)

The first cleansing balm that I’ve ever tried was the original Zero Cleansing Balm and was excited to try another one from this line! This isn’t my favourite cleansing balm. The fragrance is a really strong artificial floral scent that I can’t use everyday. I can get nauseous from fragrances sometimes, this one included. It’s a shame because as a cleansing balm and its ability to remove makeup, it’s a great product. I just wish it didn’t smell like a Bath & Body Works store.
Also, what makes this product able to “purify” the skin? There aren’t any ingredients that would necessarily purify or cleanse my skin. Personally, I use cleansing balms to remove makeup and SPF. I don’t need a cleansing balm that purifies my skin.
I tried the original cleansing balm and I enjoyed that one a lot. The fragrance is strong, and the whole purify gimmick is just weird in my opinion. I think I’ll stick to their original cleansing balm.
