What cleansing balm should I try next? 40+ skin

[Levithecat]

Hi all,
I don’t want to make a dud investment - love a thick cleansing balm for night time. i like the more herbal smelling ones. I have tried:

eve lom (like this and would get again, but keen to see what else there is)
farmacy
Alpha H
Espa
Elemis pro collagen

thank you!

Why didn't you like the ones you've tried? I mean, if you have a product you like, why change it? I have been using the Farmacy one for a few years now. I love it. So I keep using it.

If you really like changing though - the Trinny one is also lovely.

Vaseline or another make of petroleum jelly.

I use Ican London rose and it's fantastic.

When I've used my current one up I'm going to try this one as it has vitamin e in it -

Emma Hardie Moringa

I like the Sali Hughes one - it has a sandlewood scent and a fairly heavy consistency.

Jane Scrivener
Then I met you

Both lovely.

I like the Boots No 7 one that comes in a pot

Another Emma Hardie Moringa vote. Smells glorious and it’s the best one I’ve tried

Balance me, if they still maake it. Haven't used it in a while, but it was very thick and herby smelling 🙂

I like the Elemis one already on your list but the Emma Hardie Moringa is a close second.

Thank you all - I haven’t heard of most of those so will go and check them out

Oh yes Emma hardie definitely

Absolutely Emma Hardie Morninga - smells divine!

Definitely Deviant Cleansing concentrate. I use the blue tansy version. It's divine

Neals Yard Remedies - Wild Rose Beauty Balm. multi purpose as well or
up circle cleansing balm is very nice as well.

Aldi have their normal and rose cleansing balms in store at the moment OP - I've got the Rose one and its pretty much the same as Elemis/Emma Hardie but £5

Rodial Pink diamonds

Another vote for Emma Hardie morninga balm.

Lyonsleaf is fab.

I also sometimes use plain sunflower oil (used to get it in pure, sprayable form from supermarkets but these are less common since Ukraine) and it is just as effective, if less fragrant.

I like just Ponds.

Weleda for me - in the green tube, it’s amazing and leaves my skin SO soft

I’ve used a fair few and the absolute best by far is the body shop camomile cleansing balm. It is honestly like magic - melts off every last little scrap of makeup, just like that. I used to double cleanse and take some of my makeup off with micellar water before using a balm - absolutely no need now. I’ve stockpiled it in case the body shop go bust.

I like the Apothecary one from M&S. It smells like a spa.

I love the Vitaskin Vitamin C one from Holland and Barrett. Quite often 2 for 1 offer on this range.

I like Clinique Take The Day Off

I’ve been to 3 aldi stores this week to try and get one and they’ve all sold out 😭
