Which Clean It Zero cleansing balm is right for my skin?

Choose Original for everyday cleansing across all skin types, Pore Clarifying for oily or combination skin with excess oil, blackheads or whiteheads, and Calming for gentle, soothing cleansing for sensitive skin. If dryness and tightness are your main concerns, try the Barrier Boosting Balm Duo. Its Ceramide balm features ceramide and panthenol for moisture-barrier care, while its Avocado Enriching Butter balm combines avocado oil, shea butter and squalane to leave dry, rough skin feeling soft and nourished. Pick either balm in the duo to suit your skin’s needs that day.

Do I need a second cleanser after using Clean It Zero?

No. Clean It Zero cleansing balms remove makeup and cleanse in one step, so there’s no need for makeup remover wipes or a second cleanser. Massage gently onto dry skin with dry hands, add water to turn the balm milky, then rinse thoroughly. One balm, one easy cleansing ritual.
