Wanna take the day off? Us too. Always. Yet, when work, family and other social commitments don’t allow for this time, we can relish in the fact that we can still give our face a break with Clinique’s new Take the Day Off Charcoal Cleansing Balm.
A deep cleanser, this makeup, dirt and grime remover helps give our skin a solid break by melting makeup, sunscreen (yes, because we wear our SPF 365 days a year) and pollution away, quickly and without stripping our face of the essential oils it needs to stay hydrated. An infusion of Japanese charcoal, Kishu Bincho-tan detoxifies and purifies unclogging our pores of debris. Sunflower seed oil and vitamin E nourish our skin, while the lightweight, non-greasy and non-drying formula thoroughly cleanses our skin leaving it feeling and looking soft and supple.
And we love that it’s fragrance and sulfate-free. Using the balm is super easy too, we just rub a pea-sized dollop across our entire face at the end of the day and let the silky oil do the work.
Clinique Take the Day Off Charcoal Cleansing Balm, $49 for 125 ml, available at Hudson’s Bay.
