Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm

As much as I adore wearing make up, one of my favourite parts of the day is taking it all off and giving my skin a good cleanse in the evenings. I've used many types of cleansers but never a balm - I decided they weren't for me, the thought of an oily balm all over my already oily face wasn't appealing surprisingly. That's until I got my hands on this offering from Clinique, a cleanser that I've been loving using lately as part of my evening skin care routine.

The Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm (£21) is a lightweight cleanser which transforms from a solid balm to a silky, fluid oil upon application. This is such a wonderful product to use, after massaging this gently into my skin for a few minutes, the light oil melts away all traces of make up leaving my skin feeling impeccably clean and oh so soft. I was so impressed from the first use at how effective it is at removing make up, especially stubborn eye make up, it just dissolves so easily! I love how nice and light this cleanser feels on my skin, it doesn't feel greasy or leave a nasty film over my face afterwards, it just feels so cleansed and fresh.

I'm so, so pleased that I decided to try this cleanser. If like me you suffer from oily skin, don't be put off by using cleansing balms. My complexion looks so radiant and healthy after use. I can see this cleanser lasting me quite a while as the tub is pretty big and a little really does go a long way with this product. Trust me, it's definitely worth as try.

Have you tried any cleansing balms? What do you think of them?
