The INKEY List Oat Cleansing Balm 5 Fl Oz/150ml, Dissolves Makeup, Nourishing Skincare, Gentle Cleanser, Vegan Friendly, Suitable For All Skin Types

This is one of my all time favorite clensers!! It does an amazing job breaking down makeup! The formula is really creamy, you just have to make sure you shake it well before use because sometimes the oil can start to seperate if sitting for a long period of time. It leaves my skin feeling clean and moisterized, it's just so smooth!! For travel purposes, I recommend putting it in a ziplock bag because sometimes the oil can start to leak out.

I was using this product wrong and it left me very frustrated. It is not a cleanser, despite what the tube says. But it is fantastic as a makeup remover BEFORE you cleanse, if you follow these steps.1. Start with dry skin (ignore what the bottle says).• Don’t wet your face first. This balm works by melting into oils and breaking down makeup or sunscreen when massaged on dry skin.2. Use a quarter-sized amount and warm it between your fingers.• It’s thick—almost like Vaseline—so warming it helps you spread it more evenly.3. Massage into dry skin for at least 60–90 seconds.• Focus on areas with heavy makeup (eyes, lips, forehead, smile lines).• Think of it like loosening a stain—friction helps break down long-wear products.4. Emulsify by adding a small splash of water to your face.• It’ll turn slightly milky. This step helps it rinse off more cleanly and prevents the greasy feeling.5. Rinse thoroughly with warm water OR…• Better yet: Remove with a warm, damp washcloth. This will physically lift off the makeup and balm.6. Follow with your cleanser.• This balm should always be Step 1 in a double cleanse.

I've used a few of Inky List products so I wanted to give this one a try. I typically use a micellar cleansing balm. I like that this is in a bottle so that I don't have to scoop out the product but can squeeze it into my hands. The texture is a little lumpy but I don't mind because the product works really well and doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. I also feel like it's a good value for the amount of product you get.

Gentle cleanser! I use it for my first wash to remove my products from the day. If I wear makeup, it take it off nicely. This is worth the money! It is not harsh on the skin; it feels moisturizing, which I love. If I need to wash my face after sweating, I will use this.

This stuff is AMAZING! I’ll never use makeup wipes again. Get your face wet, rub this cleanser on your face, and your makeup will be gone within a minute. You can use it all over your eyes and when you rinse it away it won’t burn. I LOVE this for mascara removal. It leaves your skin so soft afterwards too thanks to the honey. Please PLEASE buy this, you won’t regret it.

I don't quite know what to think about this cleanser. I have not heard anyone say it has particles in it. Mine has bits of something (beds or something) which make it impossible to safely remove eye makeup. I cannot use physical exfoliators around my sensitive eyes, plus I don't want them getting in my eyes. Once I rinse my skin, the particles wash off leaving a residue. The residue does not come off with a second cleanse. Now, I know this would mean I would give this a one star and I gave it a three. SO here is why I am confused. This leaves my skin super moisturized. I have dry sensitive skin and it has been smooth and moisturized all week. I hate it, but I mean... I don't hate soft skin! I also love the price. So here I am ... confused. Seriously though...what are the particles?

The media could not be loaded. I bought this balm cleanser instead of a certain brand's squalane cleanser because it was a few dollars cheaper. Lesson learned.The consistency and feel of it is like vaseline. It leaves a thick film of oil which you must then wash away with another cleanser. Double cleansing can he hard on skin, but you absolutely must with this, making it a poor choice for sensitive skin.It smells like rancid oil. It made my exfoliating skin brush so nasty I will need to de-grease it with dish soap, and it made my tub slippery. It doesn't even remove makeup well. I have better luck with straight oil than I do with this horrible product.I tend to use products until they are empty but I am thinking of tossing this in the trash where it belongs and buying a tube of a proper balm cleanser like I should have in the first place.UPDATE: My husband almost slipped in the shower. I asked what was up and he said it was slick. I noticed it left a very slick slimy layer in the tub. So on top of being a horrible cleanser, it's dangerous.Please see the straight, smelly oil coming out of the tube in the video. I promptly threw this junk in the trash where it belongs.
