e.l.f. SKIN Holy Hydration! Makeup Melting Cleansing Balm, Face Cleanser & Makeup Remover, Infused with Hyaluronic Acid to Hydrate Skin

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I love this product! I finished my regular-sized pot right before vacation and loved it so much I ordered two minis, one to take on the trip and one for backup, since I travel a lot. I buy it instead of my beloved but very expensive Cl!n!que balm, and works just as well.Cleanser quality:I love the formula as a first cleanse, it melts sunscreen, indelible lipstick, and waterproof mascara right off the face without having to rub or scrub (just what my derm ordered!) and falls clear off when followed by a foamy second cleanse.Hydration:It leaves my skin feeling plump and is not stripping at all. The fragrance is pleasant and washes right off in the second cleanse.

The media could not be loaded. This is my third jar of the e.l.f. Skin Makeup Melt Cleansing Balm and I’m still obsessed! It melts off all my makeup — even waterproof mascara — without leaving any greasy residue. My skin feels clean, soft, and hydrated after every use.I love how gentle it is, even around the eyes, and a little goes a long way. It’s affordable, fragrance-free, and just as effective as some high-end balms I’ve tried.

I’ve repurchased this balm multiple times for a reason—it’s that good! The texture is smooth and buttery, and it literally melts away makeup (even waterproof mascara!) without irritating my skin or eyes. It leaves my face feeling super soft, never greasy or stripped.A little goes a long way, so the jar lasts quite a while. I also love that it’s packed with skin-loving ingredients like hyaluronic acid, peptides, and ceramides—my skin feels clean and hydrated afterward.Tip: Apply it to dry skin, massage it in, then rinse with warm water or use a damp cloth for a thorough cleanse. Works great as the first step in a double cleanse routine!Highly recommend for anyone looking for an affordable, gentle, and effective cleansing balm. Total game changer in my skincare routine!

*****UPDATE 07\10\25 ***** I used it to remove makeup and it worked great! I purposely didn't wash my face before trying the gel and it removed it completely, even my mascara. It left no residue, and I let it sit on my skin for about 5 minutes to see if it would make my skin softer. It did. I This stuff is WOW! didn't even have to use moisturizer after washing it off. This stuff is totally WOW!!!!*****ORIGINAL REVIEW *****All I can say is WOW!!! I got this yesterday and tried it out on a bare face. The directions say to use a dime sized amount of the gel but that was way too much! You will definitely have to try and gauge the correct amount to get results. The gel melts into an oil, and it It left my skin soft and smooth all night, it rinsed off clean with no residue on my skin. Once I use it to remove makeup, I'll update the review, but so far, it is a 5 star product.I'm not sure how long the bigger size will last, but when it is time, I will be getting more of this.

I would definitely say this is really good for somebody who wants to double cleanse or who wears light makeup and when I mean light makeup I mean like no powder or anything like that, now don't get me wrong does it take my makeup off yes it does even some waterproof makeup it does take off a little bit but after I used it and was trying to put a toner pad on my face and there was still some residue of makeup left on my face which I didn't like so keep that in mind if you like wearing more high coverage makeup but it does not make your skin dry it makes your skin quite soft actually it is really good for what the price is like a $10 is a complete steal and it's pretty good for people who have sensitive skin I have a dry & sensitive skin and it doesn't have a scent to it.

I haven’t tried a lot of high-end eye make up removers but I have tried the pads and I find that they don’t get mascara and eyeshadow off. This works like a dream. As other reviewers have posted, it literally melts the makeup right off your face. I primarily used it on my eyes to get mascara and eyeshadow off. I haven’t experienced blurriness, tingling, or any adverse effects to my eyes. I’d also don’t find it has a scent.I haven’t tried it on my face yet because I have other cleanser that works very well but when that cleanser runs out, I will try it on my face. I think it’s an excellent value for the money and the jar is quite large in my opinion. I can see it lasting a few months if you don’t wear make up every day. It will definitely be on my reorder list when I finally run out. Highly recommend for the efficacy and the price.

This is an awesome makeup remover. Cuts through all makeup and heavy duty mascara. There is no scent leaves your skin soft and clean. It’s Not comparible to the Elemis balm it’s better rinses off absolutely clean and costs a lot less. Non drying great product!

Bought the small size just to give it a try, absolutely amazing. I can’t believe I never used this before. It melts the makeup off the face smoothly, and works like magic on waterproof mascara. I used to spend a lot of time rubbing my eyes to get waterproof mascara off and now it’s gone effortlessly. The consistency of the product is very smooth, I feel it’s excellent quality for the price. Even with the smallest size it has been enough for me for almost 10 days of daily use. Doesn’t leave the skin dry, doesn’t irritate and I have very sensitive skin most makeup removers give me red spots this didn’t. Wonderful product I’ll never live without it.
