The heimish All Clean Balm Mandarin is a beloved Korean oil cleanser, reformulated with a refreshing citrus scent, designed for effortless makeup and impurity removal while maintaining skin comfort.

What It Is

This is a solid-to-oil first cleanser, a fundamental step in many Korean evening routines. It excels at dissolving stubborn makeup, sunscreen, and daily pollutants without leaving a tight or greasy residue. The mandarin iteration provides a bright, natural aroma during cleansing, offering a subtly different experience from the original unscented version. It effectively prepares the skin for your second, water-based cleanse, ensuring a thoroughly clean canvas without disruption.

Key Ingredients

• Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter: A rich emollient that nourishes the skin, prevents moisture loss, and supports the skin barrier during cleansing.
• Citrus Reticulata (Mandarin Orange) Peel Oil: Provides a natural, uplifting citrus fragrance while offering some antioxidant benefits to the skin.
• Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Fruit Extract: Helps to effectively solubilize and remove makeup and impurities due to its fatty acid content, contributing to a clean rinse.
• Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil: Known for its soothing and purifying properties, it helps calm the skin and manage blemish concerns without harshness.

This balm's formulation prioritizes effective cleansing with a gentle approach. It is free from parabens, mineral oil, and artificial dyes. While it contains natural essential oils for fragrance, it avoids synthetic perfumes. The pH is not critical for rinse-off products, but its non-stripping nature ensures skin remains balanced.

Who It's For

How To Use

1. When in routine: As the first step of your evening cleansing, before your water-based cleanser.
2. How much: Scoop a dime-sized amount of balm using the included spatula.
3. How to apply: Apply to dry skin with dry hands. Gently massage in circular motions across your face and neck for 30-60 seconds. Add a small amount of water to emulsify the balm into a milky texture, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
4. What to layer next: Follow with a gentle foaming or gel cleanser to complete your double cleanse.
5. Frequency: Use daily, every evening.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this balm effectively remove waterproof mascara?

Yes, the heimish All Clean Balm Mandarin is specifically formulated to dissolve stubborn, waterproof makeup, including mascara and long-wear foundations. Its oil-based formulation ensures a thorough cleanse without harsh rubbing.

Is the Heimish All Clean Balm Mandarin suitable for sensitive skin?

Many individuals with sensitive skin use this balm successfully. However, because this mandarin version contains natural essential oils for fragrance, those with known sensitivities to essential oils should perform a patch test prior to full facial application.

Do I still need to double cleanse after using this balm?

For a comprehensive Korean cleansing routine, we recommend following the All Clean Balm Mandarin with a gentle water-based cleanser. This ensures all residual impurities and balm traces are removed, preparing your skin for subsequent skincare steps.

The primary difference is the scent profile. The mandarin version incorporates Citrus Reticulata (Mandarin Orange) Peel Oil for a natural, refreshing aroma, while the original All Clean Balm is unscented. Both formulations maintain the same effective cleansing performance.

Pairs Well With

After using the All Clean Balm Mandarin, follow up with a low pH water-based cleanser, such as the COSRX Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser, to purify pores without stripping. Enhance hydration with a plumping toner, like the Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Hyaluronic Toner.
