KORA Organics Active Algae Calming Cleansing Balm — 3.38 fl oz, solid-to-oil makeup + SPF remover for sensitive & combination skin

This silky cleansing balm transforms from a solid balm into an oil as you massage it into dry skin, loosening makeup, pollution, and sebum without stripping moisture. Formulated with certified organic microalgae, pineapple enzymes, squalane, jojoba, and noni extract, the formula targets congestion and surface dullness while supporting the skin’s natural barrier. It’s designed for daily use and works especially well as the first step in a double-cleanse routine for clearer, calmer skin.

How does this balm remove makeup and sunscreen effectively?

The balm’s oil-based texture dissolves stubborn long-wear makeup and SPF by binding to oil-soluble impurities, so they rinse away cleanly without harsh rubbing. Massage into dry skin until makeup lifts, then emulsify with water to carry residue off the face.

• Solid-to-oil formula melts into mascara and waterproof products
• Pineapple enzymes gently exfoliate dead skin cells for smoother texture
• Squalane and jojoba help lift oil-based impurities without drying
• Includes a spatula to keep the jar hygienic

Will this help calm redness and reduce breakouts?

Active Algae Calming Cleansing Balm contains microalgae and noni extract, ingredients chosen to soothe irritation and support a balanced microbiome, which can help skin that reacts easily. Regular, gentle cleansing reduces pore-clogging buildup that can contribute to blemishes, while nourishing oils avoid over-drying.

• Microalgae provides antioxidants and minerals to support resilient skin
• Non-irritating, fragrance-free formulation minimizes triggers for sensitivity
• Balances oil and hydration to discourage excess sebum production
• Suitable as the first step in a two-step cleansing ritual to reduce congestion

How do you use the balm in a skincare routine?

Scoop a small amount with the included spatula and massage into dry skin for 30–60 seconds to dissolve makeup and impurities. Add a little water to emulsify, rinse thoroughly, and follow with a water-based cleanser if you prefer double cleansing.

• Use morning or night—ideal as step one in double cleansing
• Emulsify with warm water for easy rinsing and no oily residue
• Pat skin dry and continue with toner, serum, and moisturizer
• Safe for use on face and neck; avoid eye contact if possible

Is this product suitable for sensitive or combination skin?

The balm is formulated to be gentle and nourishing, making it a good match for sensitive and combination complexions that need effective cleansing without irritation. Key plant-derived ingredients were chosen to soothe inflamed skin while maintaining barrier-friendly hydration.

• No artificial fragrances or colors to reduce irritation risk
• Vegan and cruelty-free, with certified organic actives
• Lightweight finish thanks to squalane and jojoba oils
• Works well under follow-up treatments for personalized care
