What it is
Clean It Zero is Banila Co’s cleansing balm and the product that made cleansing balms popular in Korea. You scoop it with the spatula, massage it on dry skin and rinse with water. The original pink version is the classic; the standard jar is 100ml.
Why people buy it
It removes heavy makeup and waterproof sunscreen easily and travels better than a liquid oil, since it is solid. It has stayed in Olive Young’s cleansing rankings for years.
Key ingredients in plain English
Light synthetic oils dissolve makeup; emulsifiers let it rinse off; small amounts of plant extracts and vitamin E add care. It contains fragrance.
Who it suits, and who should skip it
Most skin types, especially makeup wearers. If you avoid fragrance, try Heimish All Clean Balm or a fragrance-free oil.
How to use it
Scoop a small amount with the spatula, massage on dry skin for a minute, add water until milky, rinse. Follow with a water-based cleanser.
How it compares
Heimish All Clean Balm is softer and has a citrus scent. A liquid oil like Anua’s is lighter. Banila is the strongest remover of the three.
