Green Clean Cleansing Balm Makeup Remover - Hydrating Double Cleanser

Our review of the Green Clean Cleansing Balm finds it best suited for people who want an effective, hydrating makeup remover that doubles as the first step in a double cleanse. The standout reason to buy is its ability to dissolve stubborn sunscreen, long-wear foundation and waterproof mascara while leaving skin noticeably softer after one use. The formula transforms from a sorbet-like solid to an oil and then a milky lather, making it easy to use and rinse without stripping. It also carries a subtle lime, bergamot and orange scent and arrives in a jar and cap made from post-consumer recycled plastic.

Key Features

• Clinically proven removal: Removes 99% of SPF, long-wear foundation and waterproof mascara in one application, so makeup and sunscreen come off quickly without aggressive rubbing.
• Hydrating texture: The balm melts into a silky oil and rinses to a luxe milky lather that leaves skin feeling soft and hydrated rather than tight.
• Plant-powered formula: Powered by plant-based waxes and an upcycled farm-grown super greens blend of moringa, holy basil and arugula to support cleaner ingredients.
• Travel friendly: Stays solid in the jar for TSA-approved carry-on convenience and warms on contact with skin for reliable performance while traveling.
• Sustainable packaging: Packaged in a jar and cap made from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic to reduce single-use waste.
• Pleasant scent profile: A light, citrusy aroma of lime, bergamot and orange that most users find refreshing and not overpowering.

Who It's For

The Green Clean Cleansing Balm is ideal for anyone who wears daily SPF, long-wear foundation or waterproof eye makeup and wants a single product that melts everything away while adding moisture. It particularly suits dry or combination skin types that appreciate a cleansing step that leaves a soft, supple finish and reduces the need for excessive rubbing.

People who prefer waterless wipe alternatives, travelers who need a TSA-friendly option, and shoppers seeking more sustainable packaging will also appreciate this balm. Those with very oily skin who favor gel cleansers that leave a matte finish may prefer a lighter oil-based or foam cleanser after testing this product.
