Key Highlights

Oil-based cleansers, like this cleansing balm, are superior at dissolving oil-based impurities such as sebum, sunscreen, and makeup compared to water-based cleansers. This is due to the principle of "like dissolves like."
Fermented ingredients, such as those derived from rice and grains, offer potential skin benefits beyond simple hydration. The fermentation process can break down molecules into smaller, more easily absorbed components, and produce beneficial byproducts like amino acids and antioxidants.

Why You'll Love It

Melt away even the most stubborn waterproof makeup effortlessly. The balm texture emulsifies upon contact with water, creating a milky solution that rinses cleanly without leaving a greasy residue.
Experience a gentle and non-stripping cleanse. The formula is designed to respect your skin's natural moisture barrier, avoiding that tight, dry feeling that can often follow cleansing, particularly beneficial for those with dry or sensitive skin.
Enjoy a brightening effect and improved skin texture. Ingredients like rice water, rich in vitamins and minerals, help to brighten the complexion and promote a smoother, more even skin tone over time.

Key Features

Hanbang Ingredients: Infused with traditional Korean herbal medicine (Hanbang) ingredients like rice water and chrysanthemum extract, known for their soothing, antioxidant, and brightening properties. This provides a holistic approach to skincare, beyond just cleansing.
Balm-to-Oil Texture: The solid balm transforms into a silky oil upon application, providing a gentle massage and effectively breaking down makeup and impurities. This process also aids in lymphatic drainage.
Emulsifying Formula: The balm emulsifies with water, ensuring a thorough rinse without leaving behind any oily residue. This prevents clogged pores and breakouts.
Gentle Formulation: Formulated to be gentle and non-irritating, making it suitable for sensitive skin types. It aims to cleanse effectively without disrupting the skin's natural barrier.

Perfect For

Those with dry, sensitive, or combination skin seeking a gentle and effective makeup remover.
Anyone who wears heavy makeup or sunscreen regularly and requires a thorough first cleanse.

Pro Tips

Always use dry hands and a dry face when applying the cleansing balm to ensure optimal makeup removal. Adding water too early can hinder the balm's effectiveness.
Follow up with a water-based cleanser for a complete double cleanse. This ensures all impurities are removed and prepares the skin for the rest of your skincare routine.

Cleans off makeup pretty easily. No oily residue left on face afterward. Packaging is small but nice for travel. I had a delay with shipping, though.

I like how this cleansing balm removes makeup easily. It doesn’t dry my face out, which is a plus. The smell was light but pleasant to me. Shipping took longer than expected though.

Tracy L. – October 25, 2025
I find that the Beauty of Joseon Radiance Cleansing Balm does a good enough job at cleansing the skin of oil and sebum, and at a very attractively low price! While it’s not my favorite texture, it does cleanse effectively and doesn’t leave my skin feeling dry, which is a big plus.
