grace & stella Makeup Remover Cleansing Balm — Hydrating Solid-to-Oil Cleanser, Vegan, Spatula Included

This cleansing balm transforms from a solid to a silky oil on contact with skin, then emulsifies with water to lift mascara, lipstick, foundation and everyday grime. Formulated free of parabens and sulfates, the balm prioritizes gentle removal and hydration, making it suitable for sensitive and normal skin types. It comes with a spatula for hygienic application and follows a straightforward double-cleanse routine or works as a standalone makeup remover.

How does the balm remove stubborn, long-wear makeup?

The balm’s oil-based formula breaks down oil-soluble cosmetics and sunscreen, loosening pigments and waterproof mascara without excessive rubbing. When you add water it emulsifies into a milky texture that rinses away residues, leaving skin clean and hydrated.

• Solid-to-oil texture melts with skin warmth for gentle dissolution.
• Emulsifies with water so makeup rinses off cleanly.
• Designed to remove long-wear foundation, lipstick and waterproof mascara.
• Spatula included to keep the product sanitary.

Will this balm irritate my eyes or sensitive areas?

The formula is designed to be non-tugging and non-stinging, minimizing discomfort around the eyes. Because it’s free from parabens and sulfates and labeled gentle, many users find it suitable for delicate skin, though patch testing is recommended for extremely reactive skin.

• Gentle ingredients reduce the risk of irritation when used as directed.
• No harsh sulfates or parabens to strip skin barrier oils.
• Non-stinging formulation for a comfortable eye-area cleanse.
• Rinseable emulsification helps remove residues that can irritate.

How do I use the cleansing balm for best results?

Scoop a small amount with the provided spatula, warm between fingertips, and massage onto dry skin to dissolve makeup. Add water to emulsify and continue massaging before rinsing or wiping away with a soft cloth; follow with a second cleanser if you prefer a double cleanse.

• Use the spatula to lift product hygienically from the jar.
• Massage on dry skin to break down makeup and oils.
• Add water to turn formula milky, then rinse or remove with a cloth.
• Optional: follow with a water-based cleanser for deeper cleansing.

What makes this balm different from other makeup removers?

Who is this for? If you want an effective yet gentle way to remove makeup—especially long-wear cosmetics, waterproof mascara, and daily sunscreen—while preserving skin hydration, this balm is a practical addition to your routine. It suits those seeking vegan, cruelty-free skincare that minimizes rubbing, and anyone who enjoys a tactile, spa-like cleansing step as part of nightly self-care. If you prefer water-free wipes or pure gel cleansers, you might instead choose a different texture, but for makeup melting and a soothing finish, this cleansing balm is a strong option.
