Lux Unfiltered Face Cleansing Balm — Fragrance-Free Oil-to-Milk Makeup Remover, Hydrating Squalane

Lux Unfiltered Face Cleansing Balm is a rich, fragrance-free oil-to-milk makeup remover that melts away makeup, sunscreen, and impurities while leaving skin soft and hydrated.

Designed to support a dewy, even complexion often called "glass skin," this balm combines plant-derived oils and squalane to dissolve residue without stripping natural moisture. Suitable for daily use, it transforms from a buttery solid into a silky emulsion when massaged with water, making it effective for heavy makeup and gentle enough for delicate areas like the eye contour and neck.

How does this balm remove long-wear makeup and sunscreen?

The balm’s emollient-rich formula breaks down oil-based products and layered sunscreens on contact. As you massage it into dry skin, the lipid ingredients surround makeup particles and lift them away; adding water emulsifies the oil so it rinses clean without leaving a greasy film.

• Melts waterproof mascara, long-wear foundation, and SPF.
• Emulsifies on contact with water for easy removal.
• Leaves minimal residue, reducing need for harsh double-cleansing.

What key ingredients help hydrate and nourish skin?

This cleansing balm blends jojoba and avocado oils with squalane to support the skin’s barrier while cleansing. Those ingredients supply lightweight lipids that mimic skin’s natural oils, helping maintain softness and reducing tightness after use.

• Jojoba oil: non-comedogenic, balances oil and moisture.
• Avocado oil: rich in fatty acids to comfort and condition skin.
• Squalane: stabilizes hydration and promotes a smooth finish.

How should I use it for best results in my routine?

Apply the balm to dry skin and massage in circular motions to dissolve makeup and impurities. Add a little water to turn the balm into a milky emulsion, then rinse or wipe off with a warm, damp cloth; repeat if you’re wearing heavy makeup.

• Use on dry face, eyes, and lips for full makeup removal.
• Add water to emulsify, then rinse or remove with a soft cloth.
• Follow with a gentle second cleanse if you prefer a foaming step.

Is the balm suitable for sensitive or clean-beauty routines?

The formula avoids added fragrance and common irritants, aligning with clean-beauty principles and sensitivity concerns. It is vegan, cruelty-free, and excludes gluten, parabens, sulfates, silicones, paraffin, and phthalates.

• Fragrance-free with naturally occurring lemon notes from ingredients.
• Free of harsh surfactants and common sensitizers.
• Vegan and not tested on animals, suitable for conscious routines.
