Dr. Althea's Pure Grinding Cleansing Balm is a gentle yet effective first-step cleanser designed to melt away makeup, sunscreen, excess sebum, and daily impurities while leaving the skin feeling soft, soothed, and comfortable. Perfect for starting a double cleansing routine, this balm transforms into a silky oil as you massage it into the skin, allowing it to thoroughly dissolve buildup without stripping or irritating. It is enriched with nourishing plant oils like Camellia Sinensis (green tea) seed oil and grape seed oil, which help cleanse deeply while supporting moisture balance and leaving the complexion smooth and refreshed rather than tight.

To make cleansing extra calming for sensitive skin, the formula also includes madecassoside, a soothing ingredient known for reducing irritation, and panthenol, which helps hydrate and strengthen the skin barrier during cleansing. With a clean, minimal formula that is cruelty-free, vegan, and free from artificial fragrance and colorants, it’s suitable for all skin types, including sensitive or easily reactive skin. The result is a thorough yet gentle cleanse that removes even stubborn residue while keeping skin calm, balanced, and ready for the rest of your skincare routine.
