BANILA CO Clarifying Cleansing Balm for Oily, Acne-Prone Skin — 180ml, AHA‑PHA & Tea Tree

BANILA CO Clean It Zero Pore Clarifying Cleansing Balm is a sherbet-textured makeup remover that melts away waterproof makeup and excess oil while gently exfoliating pores for oily and acne-prone skin.

This clarifying cleansing balm combines a lightweight balm-to-oil texture with AHA, PHA, BHA and LHA acids plus tea tree and jojoba extracts to dissolve heavy makeup, lift impurities and address congestion without stripping moisture. The formulation emulsifies on contact with water, rinses clean, and is dermatologist-tested and certified vegan, making it a practical step for a double-cleanse routine or a single-step makeup remover.

How does this balm remove waterproof makeup and sunscreen?

The balm-to-oil texture is designed to break down oil-based products such as waterproof mascara, longwear foundation and sunscreen. Massage on dry skin and add water to emulsify: makeup and residue suspend into the oil for easy rinsing, leaving skin clean without tightness.

• Sherbet balm melts into oil for efficient makeup dissolution
• Emulsifies with water for residue-free rinsing
• Spatula included for hygienic dispensing

Will this help reduce clogged pores and excess sebum?

Formulated with a blend of exfoliating acids (AHA, PHA, BHA, LHA), the product helps slough off dead skin cells and clear surface buildup that can contribute to clogged pores. Tea tree extract and jojoba oil assist in balancing oil production while preserving skin’s moisture barrier.

• Mild chemical exfoliants remove surface dead cells
• Tea tree helps soothe and balance oily areas
• Jojoba oil cleanses without over-drying

How should I use it in my skincare routine?

Use the balm as the first step in a double cleanse or as a single-step makeup remover. Scoop a small amount with the spatula, massage onto dry skin to dissolve makeup and impurities, then add water to emulsify and rinse thoroughly. Follow with a water-based cleanser if you double-cleanse.

• Apply to dry face; massage gently in circular motions
• Add water to emulsify into a milky texture, then rinse
• Can be followed by foaming cleanser for deep clean

Is this safe for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

While the formula targets oily and acne-prone complexions with calming tea tree and gentle exfoliants, it is dermatologist-tested and hypoallergenic. Patch-test if you’re sensitive to exfoliating acids or essential extracts, and adjust frequency based on your skin’s tolerance.

• Dermatologist-tested and hypoallergenic formulation
• Certified vegan ingredients and skin-balancing extracts
• Patch-test recommended for reactive skin types
