[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] As a blend of papaya seed oil, jojoba oil and olive oil, the Dr Pawpaw 3 in 1 Cleansing Balm, has all the right ingredients to give a very pleasant and effective balm cleanse.
It’s a little bit different to other balms that I’ve tried in that it’s quite a loose balm – more of a thick oil maybe – and you can squeeze it easily out of the tube rather than scooping it out of a tub. I used it on the (upcoming post) Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Liner Stick swatches on my arm and it made very light work of those so I was impressed. On my face, it worked around easily and cleansed away equally easily. In other words, nothing not to like in this balm. It doesn’t claim fragrance free on the packaging but looking at the ingredient list, I can’t see any fragrance and nor can I smell any.
A little goes a long way – a thumbnail amount is recommended – so £15 feels very reasonable for this product. The brand has paid careful attention to using upcycled and recycled materials for both product and packaging and even the box uses soy ink for easy recycling. I think you already know the run-down on the key ingredients but in brief, olive oil is antioxidant and hydrating, jojoba is softening and nourishing and papaya seed oil dissolves make up and excess sebum. We might as well give Dr Pawpaw 3 in 1 Cleansing Balm a halo and call it a day. You can find it HERE.
