Cleansing balms that change consistencies are increasingly popular, and Sephora's own skincare and makeup brand is now selling its own – called the Cleansing Oil-in-Balm.
The product was made to lift makeup and impurities off of the skin, without having to go through multiple cleansing steps to do so. It first features a thick, balm consistency which turns into oil once it comes into contact with skin – likely due to skin's natural heat. The moisturizing and cleansing properties of the balm ensures that it can be effective on skin that is normal, oily, combination, dry, or sensitive – though it is best suited for dry skin.
The Sephora Cleansing Oil-in-Balm contains jasmine flower wax for its skin-softening properties, and rose flower extract for its ability to protect, soothe and nourish the skin.
