Cleansing Balms are a great replacement product for your regular facial cleanser. Especially when the temperature drops, they are a terrific way to cleanse, remove impurities and makeup without drying or stripping your skin of its natural oils. These balms differ from other types of cleansers because you put them on your face dry, massage into your skin and emulsify with warm water to remove. Instead of dry and tight skin, you’re left with hydrated, glowing and clean skin. Check out our top cleansing balm picks below.
