I recently tried the Philosophy Purity One Step Cleansing Balm, and honestly, it was… just okay. The texture felt nice at first, but once I started working it into my skin, it tugged a bit more than I expected from a balm. I kept trying to warm it up between my hands, but the drag never really went away. It also didn't fully remove my waterproof mascara. Even after taking the time to massage it in, I still had smudges under my eyes and needed to follow up with another cleanser. For something marketed as a one‑step product, I was hoping for a more thorough cleanse. It did remove my foundation and base makeup well. I've tried the cleanser version of this balm and loved this! Overall, it wasn't terrible, but it didn't wow me either.

This is a rich creamy cleansing balm immediately absorbs oils, dirt and impurities of my skin leaving my dry skin incredibly hydrated and smooth without leaving a greasy feeling. The formula is very gentle and effective and lightweight and you just need a little bit it really goes a long way. It's my new favorite cleanser for my everyday skincare routine. I would highly recommend it.

This Balm is an absolute skincare gem. It effortlessly melts away makeup, sunscreen, and daily impurities without stripping the skin of its natural moisture. The texture is silky and luxurious, turning into a soft oil as you massage it in, leaving the skin feeling clean, nourished, and comfortable. It's gentle enough for all skin types, including sensitive skin, and the subtle, calming scent adds a spa-like experience to your cleansing routine.

Love the scent and love the thick texture. It removes my foundation well, but when it comes to mascara and eyeliner, it lacks compared to my Korean cleansing balm. Needs a lot more product just to partially remove my mascara

This melting balm is great for my skin it feels great and leaves my skin clean without any residue. Leaving a pure, soft finish. Influenster allowed me to try this in exchange for my honest opinion.

This cleansing balm is so thick and luxurious on the skin. It has the lightest scent, I can message it on my eyelids and it doesn't irritate my sensitive eyes while removing all my eye primer/shadow/liner and mascara. Moisturizing and not striping at all. While the packaging is a little lack luster, it doesn't irritate feel super secure and durable.

This cleansing balm is amazing. It melts makeup instantly, even waterproof mascara, without any harsh rubbing. My skin feels clean, soft, and hydrated after rinsing—no greasy residue at all. Perfect for an easy and gentle end-of-day cleanse.

This stuff is amazing Helps melt away your makeup without harsh rubbing. Just a small amount goes a long way. Does not have an odor. Can be used for someone with sensitive skin, I have bad redness on my cheeks and did not think it caused increased redness. Would definitely recommend

This makeup cleansing balm is so thick and creamy and doesnt take much. I add a splash of water to it and really rub in small circles all over my face for a couple of minutes and it does a fantastic job of breaking down makeup and rinsing clean. My fave is left feeling silky and moisturized instead of tight and dry so its perfect for winter especially when im dealing with more dryness. It feels luxurious and has a gentle space like scent.

Creamy and luxe, takes off the day and rinses clean. No film left behind on the eyes. No irritation to the eyes. The packaging is durable and safe to take on travel. It's a nice way to take makeup off as the first cleanse.
