AOA STUDIO Green Tea & Vitamin E Cleansing Balm 3.38 fl oz — Oil-Based Waterproof Makeup Remover, Soothing + Brightening

AOA STUDIO Green Tea & Vitamin E Cleansing Balm is an oil-based balm that dissolves waterproof makeup and impurities, then emulsifies into a milky rinse for a clean, soothed finish.

Lightweight yet effective, this K-beauty cleansing balm combines green tea extract and vitamin E in a smooth balm base to lift long-wear makeup, sunscreen, and daily grime without rough rubbing. Formulated without parabens, sulfates, phthalates, mineral oil, alcohol, or artificial color, it supports a gentle double-cleanse routine by removing surface buildup before a water-based cleanser.

How does this balm remove stubborn waterproof makeup?

The balm's oil-rich texture breaks down oil-based cosmetics, including waterproof mascaras and long-lasting lip color. When massaged onto dry skin, it liquefies makeup and sunscreen, then turns milky when water is added to rinse away residue.

• Oil-based formula dissolves waterproof and long-wear products
• Massaging action lifts dirt without harsh rubbing
• Emulsifies with water for easy rinsing, leaving no greasy film

What soothing and brightening ingredients are included?

Green tea extract brings antioxidant-rich botanicals that help calm skin appearance, while vitamin E supports the skin’s surface barrier and gives a brighter, more even look. These ingredients work within the balm base to cleanse without stripping natural oils.

• Green tea extract for antioxidant and calming properties
• Vitamin E to help maintain a supple skin surface
• Free of parabens, sulfates, phthalates, mineral oil, alcohol, and artificial color

How do you use the cleansing balm in a routine?

Start with dry hands and dry skin: scoop a small amount with the included spatula or clean fingers, then gently massage to dissolve makeup. Add a splash of water to emulsify into a creamy, milky texture, continue massaging, then rinse thoroughly and follow with a gel or foam cleanser for a double-cleanse.

• Scoop a small quantity with a spatula or finger
• Massage over dry face until makeup breaks down
• Add water to emulsify, rinse, then cleanse with water-based cleanser

Is this product suitable for sensitive or combination skin?

The balm’s gentle formulation and absence of common irritants make it suitable for many skin types, including combination and sensitive skin. Because it is oil-based, it removes impurities without over-drying; patch-test if you have extremely reactive skin.

• Non-irritating ingredients profile for broad compatibility
• Hydrating oil base helps prevent tightness after cleansing
• Patch test recommended for very reactive skin

Who is this for: Ideal for anyone who wears long-wearing or waterproof makeup, uses daily sunscreen, or prefers a gentle K-beauty double-cleanse routine. It’s a good pick for users seeking a travel-friendly 100 ml jar that removes heavy makeup effectively while keeping skin calm and comfortable.
