I've had terrible experiences using cleansing oils and balms until I laid my hands on Man:Yo Pure Cleansing Water. The product takes off makeup, and all kinds of oil based impurities effortlessly. I noticed it contains gentle exfoliants; PHA & LHA (Gluconolactone, Capryloyl Salicylic Acid) and other ingredients which helps to sooth and hydrate the skin. If you're looking to escape the protocol of using oil/balm cleansers, this light weight cleansing water with exfoliating benefits is a great option. I also mix it with water for when I wanna wash my makeup brushes and it gets the job done perfectly. 10/10 π
