What is a Cleansing Balm?
A cleansing balm, such as Neutriderm Cleansing Balm, is an oil-based skincare product formulated to remove makeup, sunscreen, and impurities from your skin. Different from liquid or foaming cleansers, it is either solid or semi-solid in texture and melts into an oil upon contact with the skin. This helps to break down even long-wearing and waterproof makeup and pollutants.
What is double cleansing?
Double cleansing is a two-step skincare process that involves using an oil-based cleanser followed by a water-based cleanser. The first step is with an oil-based cleanser or balm, like the Neutriderm Cleansing Balm, which effectively breaks down makeup, sunscreen, and other impurities that accumulate on your skin throughout the day. The second step, with a water-based cleanser, like the Neutriderm Foaming Cleanser, removes any remaining residue and deeply cleanses the skin. This method is beneficial for all skin types because it ensures a thorough cleanse without stripping the skin of its natural oils. By using double cleansing, you can achieve a clearer, more radiant complexion and enhance the effectiveness of subsequent skincare products.
Can a Cleansing Balm be used on all skin types?
An oil-based cleansing balm is a good choice for all skin types because it effectively dissolves impurities without disrupting the skin's natural balance. Cleansing balms are formulated with oils that attract and break down excess sebum, makeup, and pollutants, making them particularly effective at removing stubborn, oil-based products. Despite their rich texture, they don't leave a greasy residue; instead, they emulsify upon contact with water, transforming into a milky solution that rinses away cleanly. Neutriderm Cleansing Balm provides hydration for dry skin, regulates sebum production for oily and acne-prone skin, and offers gentle cleansing for sensitive skin.
