I've been trialling a lot of new skincare lately (thanks to my recently discovered obsession with beauty-box subscriptions I'm finding myself with an awful lot of products to sample, see Wednesday's post for more info), and the most recent product I've been working my way through is the Cailyn Cosmetics Dizzolv'It Makeup Melt Cleansing Balm.
From the ingredients list I don't see anything that screams "nasty" to me and the formula is nice, a very greasy balm that, as the name recommends, I use as a first cleanse in the evening to remove make-up before I go onto a second "skin" cleanse. I personally would only use this as a makeup remover as the texture is greasy and oily and perfect to remove make-up, but there are balms out there with a nicer texture like the (say it with me now) Oskia Renaissance Cleansing Gel which I prefer to use as my morning or second cleanse.
As part f my testing I used it for 3 consecutive nights to remove make-up before going into a typical skincare routine and although it removes makeup well, I do find it slightly more drying on the skin than my usual makeup remover (Superfacialist by Una Brennan Vitamin C Brightening Cleasning Oil) and so, at almost 3 times the price for the full size, I don't see myself repurchasing this item over the Una Brennan. That said I will continue to use the product while I have it.
