Byoma - Melting Balm Cleanser review
Post contains affiliate links
It is no secret that I am a huge fan of cleansing balms. I love to try different ones, testing them to see how well they remove my make-up and SPF and see if it’s kind to my eyes.
In general, I love using a cleansing balm as my first cleanse, it’s a great way of breaking everything down.
Pros
Very affordable
Packaging is informative
Hydrating
Fragrance free
Takes my make-up off well
Cons
No spatula
Didn’t break down my eye make up completely on the first go

Price and verdict
£14.99/$14.99 for 60g is very reasonable and affordable to repurchase. I like the packaging, it’s cute and informative, tells you all about the ingredients and when to use it. Brownie points for that.
It broke down my make-up well, definitely great as a first cleanse, it just needed an extra little rub/swipe to get my eye make-up off. It didn’t sting my eyes - even more brownie points! It states that it is fragrance free, however, I can definitely smell something.
It’s a light smell, nothing overpowering and it might be the natural scent from the Grape seed oil - it’s not enough to put me off though!
I would have liked a spatula with it only because if I need more product and I have make-up on my hands, there’s a chance it ends up in the balm.
Byoma Melting Balm Cleanser conclusion
Trying out different cleansing balms is something I enjoy doing. Now that I have used Byoma’s balm, it is one I would repurchase.
It felt comfortable on my skin and left it feeling soft. Bonus points for containing Niacinamide which helps control oiliness - thanks Byoma!
