Pond's Makeup Remover Cold Cream Cleansing Balm - Reviews | MakeupAlley (2024)

I like the texture and how it melts on my skin. This one is more oily than Pond's Cold Cream, the one with green lid. Another thing that I like is that I can use this cleansing balm to give facial...

I used Clinique's cleansing balm years ago and loved it, but it's pricey. I also tried the Body Shop's cleansing balm with some success a few years back, too. Where I live, very few other balms are...

My mom uses it so I've tried this balm ages ago. I love the way it melts my makeup. A small amount goes a long way too! It's a great cleansing balm but it irritates my skin a little! I'll give it a...

This stuff is amazing! I have never used a cleanser that took my makeup off as well as this, even my thick full coverage foundation and hard to remove mascara. It instantly melts in your hand and...

Wanted to try a water-rinseable cold cream cleansing balm before I shelled out $30 for Clinique's Take the Day Off balm. I'm a little more than half-way through the jar and I just can't anymore. ...

For a cleansing balm it does the job. It’s inexpensive and effective but the fragrance is very strong which is why I docked 2 lippies from the rating and will prevent me from repurchasing. The...

I started using this about a week ago after seeing some reviews, and so far, I love it! I've tried a couple of other balms, including the Ordinary and No7 Radiant Results Nourishing Balm. I really...

I was so excited to try this after seeing all the great reviews. However, it did not work for me. I loved the texture, the smell, and it was easy to use. It started as a balm, then turned into an...

This is a good value for the price-comparatively to the other Korean cleansing balms I have tried . It does a fine job of taking the make-up off. As others have mentioned, the fragrance is a bit...

I'm a fan of double-cleansing so I'm always in the market to try a new balm or oil cleanser. My go to is the Trader Joe's Cleansing Oil -- getting a skincare staple while I'm out picking up my...

I have been using this for the past month or so and am really impressed! Had not tried a balm before this. My normal routine to remove makeup was a wet wipe makeup remover, then Philosophy's...

Edit: Bumping this to 4 lippies. I love how it 100% gets my make up off CLEAN.I have tried plenty of cleansing balms. This one is more suited for oily skin because the emulsifiers (what rinses...

I have very oily but dehydrated, acne-prone, aging skin, and I ALWAYS wear a full face of makeup. Cleansing balms scared me for a long time and there was no way I would chance the oil cleansing...

Works great. It did an excellent job of removing heavy stick foundation. It is fragranced but I didn't find it overwhelmingly so; it's not enough to bother me at all but I could see some people...

I don’t want to knock this when the previous reviewers have both praised it, and it is decent. If you’ve used a cleansing balm, you know the deal - massage on so the oil can break down your makeup...

I have been wanting to jump on the cleansing balm bandwagon, but was balking at spending $20 plus on something to wash my face. I wear sunscreen but not much face makeup so I don't have a lot to...

Balm fans! This (new) cleansing balm from Pond’s performs like balms two and three (and four!) times it’s price! I purchased it in Target but it is manufactured in Korea. Goes on easily and turns...
