This is a repurchase because I love it. The INKEY List Oat Cleansing Balm is a staple in my PM routine. It melts away sunscreen without drying my skin. The texture isn’t runny, so it’s perfect for anyone with sensory sensitivities. So soothing, gentle, and effective every time 💕

Love this balm so much. Went through 3 tubes already. The best ever cleansing balm

I love this but it can accumulate in the pipe under your sink and clog it.

This product doesn’t go on like a face wash. It literally is a balm. Maybe I’m not using it the correct way, but def doesn’t feel like a cleanser.

This cleanser is so good that I bought two so that I never go without! I love the way my skin feels after I use the Oat Cleansing Balm. My skin feels amazing, it has a healthy glow and it’s hydrated too. As a bonus, after I let it set in my face for a couple of minutes I let it double as a shaving balm. The Oat Cleansing Balm is a win, win and win!

I absolutely love this balm in my double cleansing routine. Will continue to buy.

This is my go.to cleanser year round. I have dry skin and this is perfect. It leaves me feeling soft and sets me up for a good face day. Sometimes if my skin is super dry I use it on my body which is the most luxurious thing in the whole world. 10/10 no notes

My go-to oil cleanser. It melts sunscreen so well and never dries out my skin. The texture is soft and soothing, and it’s not runny like other oil cleansers. It leaves my skin calm and clean every time. Gentle, effective, and such a great value in the duo 🤍

I really like this . Really feel that it’s removing my make up effectively . Leaves my skin feeling so soft! It’s hard to dispense , especially when almost empty , but I just get the scissors and scrape the remaining out with my fingers :)

Started using this after a reaction to a foundation that stripped my skin of all moisture - it returned my skin to normal after a few uses as I was starting to worry it would never recover so would recommend as it always leaves my skin feeling clean & soft & clears any blemishes quickly . Just struggle squeezing it out of tube sometimes.

I adore this formula, the oil cleanser is so gentle while the oats provide a very gentle exfoliation. Unlike a lot of oil cleansers, my skin doesn't feel tight or dry after using. If you’re acne-prone, it’s important tot thoroughly wash the balm off with another cleanser.
All this being said, the packaging for this product isn't ideal. Because it's in a tube, the product often seperates, leaving big globs of oil or chunks of oat. If this cleansed was packaged in a jar, for example, where the formula can't separate this would easily be 5/5 review.

From a 27 yo female with dry and sensitive skin living in humid subtropical climate - I have really enjoyed this cleansing balm. It is gentle, does not strip the skin, and has removed my mascara very well.

Absolute game changer. I actually find it works better for me if I apply it like a balm to dry skin then massage warm wanter into it then wipe off with bamboo wash cloth

This is wonderful. It removed all my waterproof makeup, liner, mascara, without irritation and without blurring my eyes.
I love the smell of this! It smells like paste. LOL

I love this product! Not only does it last for a long time, it is one of the only cleansers which I find to be truly hydrating and nourishing, and its effects linger even after the second cleanse. I wouldn't recommend this as a cleanser on it's own unless you have very dry skin, but it is a lovely non-irritating product which has not helped with my blemishes particularly, but has made my skin feel a lot less dull.

I love this cleanser.Very moisturizing for my dry skin.

I love how well this removes my makeup and is so gentle to my skin. It would get 5 stars if it wasn’t so hard to get out of the tube.

So rich and calming for the skin, silky and moisturising.

It would be a lovely balm but it has a few errors:
- doesn't rinse clean, leaves residue
- product separates in the bottle and leaks oil when you open it
- slightly gritty texture, not smooth
- packaging not practical, a lot of product is leftover inside the tube and must be cut out in the end
