Take The Day Off™ Charcoal Cleansing Balm

Charcoal is a bug, no a feature

I guess that the Take The Day Off range of product can't do an absolute wrong even when they try; and Clinique really tried with this one. Imagine the luxurious experience of removing makeup with the original cleansing balm being literally tainted by charcoal. My face was black, my sync was black, my washcloth was black. And my face also stinks like charcoal. Was it efficient at removing makeup? Absolutely yes. If I had another complaint it was that it left my skin slightly dry; which for someone with more oily skin than me might be a benefit.

Nope nope, this was a HG product but this formula isn't it, I spent way to long rubbing this in to still have residue mascara, sadly. Your $ are better spent on Elf HH melting balm which actually takes away everything.

Won’t come off!

I always use oil or balm to remove my makeup. This is probably the worst one I’ve ever try. It won’t emulsify well so you need to spend a lot of time removing it. It went straight to the trash after 2 uses.

Really takes the day off

I like this product because a little goes a long way. A tiny scoop on the tip of my finger is enough to take off a full face (foundation, concealer, blush, bronzer, etc). Even though I have sensitive skin, it never dries me out. You have to use a cleanser after though, but it’s okay!

I used to love the original. and then they changed the formula. I would still buy because I still liked it. but I think they changed it again. because it feels different. and it takes longer to wash off. and it irritates my skin all of a sudden when it never did. Sadly I won't buy it anymore.

Good price, good product. Very good for mix skin. This brand is very good!

Bring back the original!!!

No where near as good as the original. I feel it doesn’t clean as well and I end up using more product.

Not suitable for acne skin

I won't recommend it to someone who easily gets breakout and acne… since I started to use it I breakout and got a lot of acne..

Absolutely not.

I miss the original SO MUCH. I find this extremely drying and not as gentle.

Nope.

Man this literally turned my face black. And I have to scrub my face with it just to somewhat see my makeup come off. I’d rather just use the original Take the Day Off cleansing balm. This is a definite no for me.

The original is not extinct

The original is the best. Haven’t tried this one. You can still purchase the original at The Bay.

BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL CLEAR FORMULA ASAP

SO SO UPSET!! I LOVED THE ORIGINAL. CLINIQUE JUST LOST YET ANOTHER CUSTOMER
