Clinque Take the Day Off Cleansing Balm

What I liked:

• The Performance: When I have a full face of makeup, I put this stuff on and it takes all my mascara and piles of makeup off so extremely well.
• The texture: It’s a balm, but a waxy one. When you begin to work it into your face, it’s warms into an oil.
• The smell: It’s basically unscented. I can appreciate a scentless cleanser when I realize that I put so many products on that the light scents mix together. So yes, unscented is okay in my book!

What I didn’t like:

• The Oiliness: If I’m not careful in the application or removal, the oil gets into my eyes a little bit. I realize it’s a ME thing, but still…it’s a thing. It’s annoying, but not too annoying. I can typically just rinse my eyes or wipe them on a soft towel and they are good to go.

Conclusion:

I’m a fan! There aren’t a lot of cleansing balms in the US at the present, so unless you want to spend an arm and a leg, this is the best one around. It feels super luxurious to rub into your face and works very well. It’s $28.50 and you can find it easily at Nordstrom.
