Clinique's Take the Day Off cleansing balm
There are cleansing balms and then there’s this stuff. Honestly don’t even mess around, proceed directly to Clinique.
THE BUZZ:
I’ve tried a lot of different makeup removing substances, from the wipes to the liquids to the oils. I like the wipes for convenience when traveling (Neutrogena’s are my favorite) but after seeing this Clinique balm recommended time and time again I had to try it out and now I am NEVER GOING BACK TO ANYTHING ELSE.
Works like a charm
Even the best wipes and oils tend to leave me with raccoon eyes the next morning, but Clinique’s Take the Day off gets every speck of makeup with no harsh rubbing necessary. The product lasts a good long while, feels nice, and has no bothersome scent (at least, none that I can detect). It truly melts away even the most stubborn mascara and eyeliner. You can use it as a standalone cleanser but I personally use it as step one: I remove makeup with the balm, then follow up with a mild cleanser.
