Q: Does this count as a face wash or just a make up remover
submitted by Abodav - 4 months ago
A: You may use this as your only product to remove your makeup and then rinse off. If you prefer to double cleanse, you may follow up with cleanser.
submitted bythe elfcareteam - 4 months agoA: You don’t technically NEED to, but please use a facial cleanser after you rinse this off. Your skin will feel much better not to mention cleaner. Using just this and no face wash after will cause you to breakout I can guarantee.

Q: Around how long does this last?
submitted by Sarah - 9 months ago
A: I have used this for about 2ish years now and each container lasts me around 2-3 months even if I use it daily. You don’t need more than a pea sized amount, a little more if your makeup is super heavy.
submitted byMadison - 18 days agoA: This contains 2 OZ (56.5 g), so although results vary by user, it will last for quite awhile even with daily use.

StateofMichigan - 6 days ago, Verified purchaser
I’ve been using the Almay make up remover pads for like 10 years. Not sure why I decided to switch but a little goes a long way. Melted away waterproof mascara in seconds. Partnered with make up remover wash cloths this stuff changed my life. Love that a small travel size is also available Remember only a small amount is necessary to remove makeup

Aer0057 - 6 days ago, Verified purchaser
This made my eyes so irritated and I couldn't see normally after using it. I used it at night to remove my make up. The next morning my eyes were swollen and so itchy. Had to wash my eyes with antibacterial soap. Then applied hydration eye drops. Definitely do not recommend! I'll stick to my make up eraser cloths and water.
👎 oily and greasy

I broke out - 6 days ago
The face cream and the cleansing balm highly caused me to break out. This product comes with a spatula and seemed like it lasts a while which is convenient, just not breaking out. Over all this product is oily and greasy, would not buy if you have sensitive skin! Warning!!!! Has a scent that can irritate skin.❤
Soft and gentle

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This cleansing balm is great to use before cleansing your face with makeup on it. It is not harsh on your skin and does a great job taking off mascara.
Effective!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I will most likely be purchasing this again! I really enjoyed using this balm to remove my makeup, it did a good job and was easy to rinse off with just water. Did not leave my skin feeling greasy at all! I also cant complain that they provide a little spatula to keep things sanitary.
Good bang for your buck

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The e.l.f. Holy Hydration! Makeup Melting Cleansing Balm has become a staple in my skincare routine. Its solid balm transforms into a silky oil upon application, effortlessly dissolving makeup—including stubborn waterproof mascara—without leaving any greasy residue. Infused with hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and peptides, it not only cleanses but also leaves my skin feeling soft and nourished. I appreciate its gentle formula, which doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin, and the absence of a strong fragrance is a bonus. For an affordable price, it delivers results comparable to high-end cleansing balms.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The best makeup and spf remover I’ve ever tried. I’m not a fan of oils, they clog my pores, so I prefer balms, and tried so many of them. This one is a must, for that price - should be no question! Ps. it has no scent, for sensitive babes :)
Decent

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Holy Hydration! Makeup Melting Cleansing Balm worked well for removing makeup and would be great to keep around if needed, but personally I like to use products like makeup erasers that don’t contain anything in them to remove makeup if possible due to less ingredients.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the double cleansing concept but have to go with micellar water because all the sticky feeling on face when using the cleansing balm. Not this one. Lightweight and still do the job really well. Recommended

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the e.l.f. Holy Hydration! Makeup Melting Cleansing Balm and it’s been a great addition to my skincare routine. It melts away makeup easily-including waterproof mascara—and rinses off without leaving a greasy feel. My skin feels clean, soft, and not stripped. It’s gentle, fragrance-free, and perfect for sensitive skin. I'll definitely be repurchasing it again because it worked well with my skin.
