Oily cleansing balm/oil recommendations for my second cleansing step? First step cleanser recommendations too please..

I am thinking of adding a cleansing balm/oil to my routine after using my first cleanser (COSRX Salicylic Acid Daily Gentle Cleanser), any recommendations? Thank you! This is my first post on this app, look forward to getting the best skin quality possible with you all! Please do recommend other products if you think my first cleanser is already causing harm to my skin, I heard that stearic acid is somewhat comedogenic (pore clogging)..

Cleansing balm/oil should be your first cleanser not the one you tag. that should be your second cleanser. the cleanser you tag should be gentle enough but if you do notice your skin reacting to it, then stop using it. I personally prefer the Cosrx low ph morning cleanser. as for first cleanser, I personally enjoy using cleansing balm because is not as messy and oily as cleansing oil. I must say one thing about cleansing balm that I noticed for me is that, my eyes will have some film at times when I rub too long on my eyes but otherwise, all good! Banila Co is my personal favourite. Heimish is the equivalent. These are the more affordable ones for me. as for cleansing oil, Pestlo is my first and I enjoy it too!

I have recently re bought the COSRX salicylic acid cleanser, I donโ€™t think it gives any reactions compared to other ones! I will keep your recommendations in mind! Thank you!

Oil based cleanser goes first then your water based cleanser. These are my two favorite, I personally prefer the balm as the oil can get a little messy.
