Hwarang' Bell Flower Cleansing Balm is a balm that removes makeup, sunscreen and impurities accumulated on the skin during the day, and contains soothing guaiazulene, bell flower extract and panthenol. The balm's lightweight, sherbet-like consistency melts away makeup in an instant, leaving the skin feeling soft and clean and making the cleansing process always easy and pleasant.

Guaiazulene is a beautiful blue extract obtained from chamomile oil, which soothes and repairs the skin, relieving skin irritation and thus strengthening the skin's protective barrier. Guaiazulene's hypoallergenic and antibacterial properties make it also suitable for sensitive and acne-prone skin.

Bellflower is traditional Korean hanbang ingredient that is grown in all provinces of Korea well into the fall. Bellflower is consumed in many ways as side dishes, a food supplement combined with e.g. pear or honey, and as tea, which is often the first way for Koreans to tame a cold or a sore throat.

The saponins, flavonoids and phenolic acid in bellflower fight effectively against inflammation, helping the skin to calm down and regenerate more effectively.

Panthenol or vitamin B5 (provitamin) soothes irritated skin, reduces itching and moisturizes the skin, making it more elastic and soft.

The effective soothing properties as well as the balm's slightly oily but at the same time non-comedogenic (doesn't clog pores) formula make the balm a perfect product for facial oil massage as well. Massage as usual, wash off the balm with water and voilà - the skin feels soft and ready for your skincare routine. Note that the beautiful violet shade varies between batches due to natural plant based extracts that are used to create the shade.

Use the spatula to take a dollop of cleansing balm and warm it up in your hands. Gently massage on a dry face until makeup has completely melted. Use the spatula to do a small gua sha massage by pressing the points on the face where you feel tension.

Wash off the balm with lukewarm water and proceed to the second step of cleansing if desired.

Oil-based cleansing products are used as the first step of a skincare routine to remove makeup, sunscreen, dirt, etc.
