Skin Smoothing Cleansing Balm – 100 ml
Description
Ingredient
This cleansing balm is formulated with a scientifically balanced blend of emollients and botanical lipids aimed at effectively dissolving makeup, sunscreen, and particulate matter without disrupting the skin’s natural lipid barrier. Core constituents typically include shea butter, jojoba oil, and sunflower seed oil, which act as lipid-replenishing agents. Additional components may include tocopherol (Vitamin E) for antioxidant protection, and soothing plant extracts such as lavender or rose. The formulation is devoid of parabens, synthetic fragrances, and sulfates, making it compatible with sensitive and reactive skin profiles.
Benefits
The balm performs a dual function: it acts as both a deep cleanser and a moisture-retaining treatment. It removes oil-based impurities from the skin’s surface through a lipophilic mechanism, while simultaneously delivering hydration via occlusive and humectant agents. Its non-foaming nature minimizes transepidermal water loss (TEWL), helping maintain the integrity of the stratum corneum. Clinical use of such formulations has been shown to improve tactile skin smoothness and reduce signs of irritation, especially in individuals exposed to environmental stressors or harsh cleansing agents.
How to Use
Apply a moderate amount to dry skin using clean, dry fingertips. Gently massage in upward circular motions, allowing the balm to melt into the skin and emulsify sebum, pollutants, and cosmetics. Moisten hands to initiate the emulsification process, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water or remove with a soft, damp cloth. For optimal results, follow with a water-based cleanser as part of a two-step cleansing protocol, particularly for individuals using SPF or heavy makeup.
Precautions
For topical use only. Avoid direct contact with eyes. In the event of ocular exposure, rinse immediately with copious amounts of water. Discontinue use if signs of irritation, rash, or hypersensitivity occur. Store in a cool, dry environment and keep out of reach of children.

I’ve been using the Flicker Skin Smoothing Cleansing Balm for a few weeks now, and it’s quickly become my favourite way to remove makeup and cleanse my skin in one step.
The texture is rich and buttery, but it melts instantly on contact with the skin, turning into a silky oil that dissolves everything – long-wear foundation, SPF, waterproof mascara – without any harsh rubbing. When I add a little water, it transforms into a light milk that rinses off completely, leaving no greasy film behind.
What I love most is how soft and smooth my skin feels afterwards. Instead of that tight, stripped feeling some cleansers leave, my skin feels cushioned, hydrated and calm. Dry patches look less noticeable, and my overall texture feels more refined and even. It’s gentle enough to use around the eyes and hasn’t caused any irritation or breakouts.
The light, spa-like scent and the luxurious jar packaging make the whole routine feel like a mini facial at home. A small amount goes a long way, so the 100 ml size is great value for how often I use it.
If you want a cleanser that:
Effortlessly removes makeup and SPF
Leaves skin smooth, soft and nourished
Works as a first cleanse or stand-alone cleanser
…the Flicker Skin Smoothing Cleansing Balm is absolutely worth adding to your routine
