Clinique's #1 makeup remover in a silky balm formula that gently dissolves makeup. Now with detoxifying Japanese charcoal, this lightweight cleansing balm is suitable for Dry Combination, Combination Oily and Oily skin types. This charcoal cleansing makeup remover quickly dissolves dissolves tenacious eye and face makeup and sunscreen. Japanese charcoal acts as a purifying ingredient that deeply cleanses, detoxifies and unclogs pores, helping clear dirt, oil and other impurities. Safflower seed oil works efficiently to help break up natural oil found on skin, as well as dissolving hard-to-remove makeup. Rich in linoleic acid, this natural emollient helps leave skin feeling soft and nourished. The solid balm transforms into a silky oil upon application, and rinses off completely without leaving an oily or greasy residue. To apply, massage balm over dry skin, rinse well with warm water and pat dry. The formula is: non-acnegenic; non-greasy; non-drying; non-stripping; fragrance-free; allergy-tested; ophthalmologist-tested and dermatologist-tested.

Absolutely fantastic

Started using this as oil free miscellar cleanser discontinued. It is easy to use and melts on your skin, all makeup and SPF removed , it is not drying at all. I use with the little Clinique cloths which wash clean. Considering I have rosacea and am sensitive there is no reaction at all just nice smooth skin. Thank you

Not as good as the original

I've used the original version of this for years and it's been great - so easy to remove all of my makeup. This one is not good for removing makeup - I have to leave it on for so long and rub so much and even after that I have panda eyes straight away. My eyes also itch - not sure whether that's the product or the fact that my makeup isn't being washed away completely. It's super difficult to wash off completely. Really disappointed that I have a lot of the jar left, especially as it's not cheap.

visible difference in less than a week

I had a sample sized pot for some time and when I ran out of my usual cleaner I went to my drawer of Clinique goodies and dug this out. Quite a surprise with the texture at first but quickly realised that it does indeed turn to a soft balm as I massaged onto skin. I love this product as it is so lovely to use I now massage my face as part of my night routine and both my skin and my stress levels have improved. Thank you Clinique for a great gift.

Clear cleansing balm is better
Originally posted on clinique.co.uk

I have very oily skin. I'd been using the clear cleansing balm but the charcoal version came out, so opted for that. It didn't really make any difference to my skin in terms of controlling oil. I find it hard to wash off. If it gets on your clothes or towels it stains (but does wash out) and leave stains on the sink which is a pain to wash down. I'll only buy the clear version in the future.

I had my doubts about this, so black and gloopy, but stuck with it and now, after just a few weeks of use, it has made a huge difference to my skin which now looks much fresher and clearer than before. Excellent results!

Great for clogged pores!

I bought this by mistake because I thought it was the original! However after using only once I noticed a huge difference in my clogged pores. I've tried so many different products and this is the only one that's cleansed them properly and made my skin look clear. Again this is only after one use so can't wait for the results after I've used it for a whole!

Not for me

I didn't like this... I got a sample tub and gave it a whirl, but I would not spend money on this. I don't like the "balm" nature of the product; I much prefer Liz Earle's Cleanse and Polish lotion texturally. It takes some effort to pick up enough product to wash your face, without digging into it. I didn't like the smell. The charcoal comes through in an unpleasant way. That said, I'm giving it 3 stars because it did do an indisputably fantastic job melting my make up. My skin didn't feel particularly moisturised afterwards - but that's not super surprising for an oily skin product... Will eventually finish my sample. But not one I'd recommend...

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are sorry to hear you didn't love the texture of the product but did love that it cleansed your skin so well! We do have the original Take the Day Off Balm which has a softer balm texture which you may prefer.

Take the day off charcoal cleansing balm

Being a big fan of the existing cleansing balm, I decided to try the charcoal one when it was released. I've been very disappointed with it and wouldn't purchase it again. I'll revert to the normal one. I just don't find it as effective as the original one.

Thank you for your feedback Ely and we are sorry to hear you are disappointed with your purchase. This particular cleanser will suit a dry combination to oily skin, however the ingredients with in this cleanser are beneficial to helping to remove excess oil and detoxify too.
My new night cleanser

I use a number of Clinique skincare and makeup products and was recently given this as a sample to try, as I was looking for a new night time cleanser (currently use something else). I was genuinely amazed at how effective this was. Takes everything off, makeup, sunscreen, you name it and all in one go. Excellent product. Thanks Clinique!

I have really oily skin and unfortunately with oily skin often results in larger pores that can appear clogged etc. I used the original balm for about 7 months and loved it but noticed the release of the new charcoal cleansing balm for oily skin/pore prone skin to help draw out impurities for pores and wanted to try it when my old tub was finished. I have been using the charcoal balm for 2 weeks now and can confidently say I have noticed a difference in pore size and most of all, dirt control. I used to hate looking at my skin after I cleansed makeup off as no matter how much I used to try and scrub, wipe, cleanse, exfoliate - everything - my pores STILL looked clogged and dirty!! I don't often write reviews but feel this was necessary, really would love a full range for pore prone skin to complete the package. I truly feel like Clinique have cracked it with this one!

I am a mega fan of the Original Take the day of balm which I use to remove my make up and as my first cleanse on days I wear make up. This product feels just as good and does the job, however I feel the charcoal gives me an extra benefit of drawing out impurities.

This balm felt lovely and soothing on my skin (which is SUPER dry at the moment, as I've been using topical acne treatments!). I let it sit on my skin for a few seconds before rinsing away. It was comfortable and light, but very effective.

I'm a big fan of the original balm and use it daily. It is the best make up remover product I have ever tried, and I tell everyone to use it. This new version is just as good, my only comment would be that due to the charcoal it can leave a darker residue on the face so needs to be cleansed off after. I would use either product though and always swear by them!

Thank you for taking the time to share your delight with our Take the Day of Cleansing Balms, we love them too! To help remove all traces of this cleanser we recommend you use fingertips to massage balm over dry facial skin. Apply warm water and massage to dissolve makeup. Then rinse well with warm water and pat dry. Hope this helps and thank you for taking the time to leave your review.
