"They also have a little tiny e.l.f. Holy Hydration! Makeup Melting Cleansing Balm like this product. It does have fragrance but it's pretty mild, like it's not headache inducing or anything. Obviously if you're allergic to fragrance you have to avoid it, but I don't mind it in this. And then you know you're rinsing it off so it's less likely to be irritating to the skin."

10 Skincare Products You Need To Try From Target 🎯🛍

"I really like the cleansing balm in this line. [...] The cleansing balm does have fragrance but it's not too bad and it has hyaluronic acid, ceramides and peptides which may help with moisturizing although you're going to rinse it off. This works, it works and it's pretty affordable at $11 for a cleansing balm."

Skincare I Used Up 🗑 EMPTIES 2023

"Pleasant to use aside from the fragrance, emulsifies easily. I actually prefer this to the CeraVe cleansing balm if you're going to go with a drugstore brand cleansing balm because the packaging is better, the consistency of this is a lot more luxurious, it's silkier, it spreads on the skin a little bit easier. The CeraVe one is just ever so slightly a bit clumpy. [...] This is a nicer experience than the CeraVe one. [...] Give it a try, it is not bad."

"It does have fragrance in it, the fragrance is pretty light, and of course you're rinsing this off so it's not as though you're leaving it on the skin to cause irritation, though if you're allergic to fragrance you'd want to avoid it. This really gets the job done and it was not expensive, so if you're someone who's looking for a good drugstore cleansing balm I would highly recommend this one."

"One of the best budget tips I have is do not overspend on cleansers and moisturizers. This is a cleansing balm and moisturizer. You can get these for right around ten to fifteen dollars now that it's on sale, way less than that, but these do a really good job getting makeup off your skin and hydrating your skin without breaking the bank."
