Hydrophilic oil vs cleansing balm
Double cleansing is an effective and especially thorough way to cleanse your face and get rid of makeup, excess sebum and dirt. The first step of a double cleanse usually consists of an oil-based cleanser, be it a makeup remover balm or a hydrophilic oil. Let's take a closer look at the differences between these two tools.
What is Hydrophilic Oil?
The hydrophilic oil is of course not ordinary cooking oil or the like. It won't work or remove makeup. Without the surfactant in the hydrophilic oil, it would be difficult to wash off and make the skin heavier. Hydrophilic oils are special oils that moisturize and nourish the skin during the cleansing phase, and then rinse off easily without leaving a greasy film. They often contain oils such as almond oil, grape seed oil, or sesame oil, which emulsify well when combined with water.
One of our bestsellers is iUNIK Complete Cleansing Oil. It removes even waterproof makeup simply and reliably. IUNIK Hydrophilic Oil contains cleansing calendula oil, which has anti-inflammatory and soothing effects. It also unclogs clogged pores, helping to tighten them.
You should also pay attention to the hydrophilic oil Manyo Pure Cleansing Oil. Herbal oils remove makeup and impurities for a clean complexion.
What is cleansing balm?
Unlike hydrophilic oil, make-up remover balms are solid. However, when applied to the skin, the balm melts quickly and turns into a soft consistency. It also contains many valuable oils, the main difference being the consistency.
Therefore, cleansing balms are often more useful, especially when traveling, because the risk of leakage is less since the balm is solid.
We recommend Pyunkang Yul Deep Cleansing Balm and Yadah Green Tea Pure Cleansing Balm to thoroughly cleanse the skin of makeup and impurities. The products are suitable for dry skin.
Generally, hydrophilic oils and makeup removing balms are suitable for all skin types. However, they will help new owners of sensitive and dry skin look new, as they do not leave an unpleasant sensation and provide the skin with moisture already at the stage of cleansing.
