Developed by a world-leading expert in stem cell research, Professor Augustinus Bader has spent thirty years unlocking the body’s innate processes to self-heal. The result? Game-changing skin care that uses a unique, patented Trigger Factor Complex - TFC8 - to help visibly reduce the signs of ageing and damage caused by environmental stressors, and leave skin looking restored, regenerated and glowing.
A Cult Beauty exclusive, The Cleansing Balm is an effortless way to remove every trace of the day while infusing your skin with a buffet of goodness. A decadent salve, it dissolves daily make up and oil and transforms from a balm to a milk to eliminate grime and leave skin peachy clean and conditioned.
With its decadent, buttery texture, this beautiful balm is like everything else in the Augustinus Bader range – indulgent, efficacious and results-driven. Harnessing the power of his signature TFC8 Complex to support skin renewal and provide cells with nutrients needed for optimal health, alongside an avocado-olive fruit oil complex, conditioning squalane and vitamin E, this nourishing formula tones, purifies and decongests to leave your complexion clean, clear and refined. Making light work of even the most stubborn make up, this calms as it cleanses – soothing and smoothing the skin to promote health and radiance – simply sweep it away with ‘The Cloth’ (100% cotton muslin) to provide gentle exfoliation and enhance the skin brightening benefits. Non-pore-clogging, fragrance free and 100% vegan, it’s a must for any Augustinus addict, as well as those who’re keen to elevate their cleansing ritual.

The Cleansing Balm is a solid salve that melts into a luxurious milky cleanser when water is added. May be used as a complete cleanser on its own, as the first step in a double cleansing regimen, followed by The Cleansing Gel.
Use fingertips to massage a pea-sized amount of balm into dry skin, paying special attention to areas where dirt, oil and stubborn make up accumulate.
Add water to emulsify and continue to massage.
Soak ‘The Cloth in warm to hot water and apply gently to the skin in circular motions to remove impurities and excess balm.
Pat skin dry before continuing with the rest of your Augustinus Bader skin care regimen.
Rinse ‘The Cloth’ thoroughly and allow to hang dry between uses.

Overpriced
It lathers well, is comforting, and is good at removing makeup. However, it didn't clear my pores as well as Emma Hardie, which is cheaper. Overall, it was nothing special to warrant the price.

Is it just me or can I smell chip fat??
I bought this as a change from my usual cleansing balms as it was on offer. It works well as a balm-based cleanser. However, I can’t get over the smell of cooking fat. Even when I’ve washed it all off, there is still a lingering smell. I notice that the initial ingredient is sunflower oil. I would not recommend nor would I buy this again. Also inevitably over-priced as all Augustinus Bader products. Back to my Clinique and Emma Hardie.

Worth it!
Although this is on the pricey side I have fallen for it big time! It feels lovely on the skin, not overly oily but just enough to remove everything. It has grip so you can get a bit of a massage on and my skin feels genuinely decongested after using. No real scent so it doesn’t feel particularly lux in that respect. But results wise it’s up there with the best!

Excellent, highly effective cleanser
I love this cleanser, really effective at removing makeup. Lovely rich texture, leaves skin soft and not dry. I use this as the first step in a double cleanse, following up with AB The Cream Cleansing Gel. Would recommend

Lovely cleanser
I love this cleanser! It’s gets all my makeup off and wipes away, leaving my skin soft and smooth. It’s pricey but lasts forever, so it’s worth it.

Best balm cleanser
I’ve tried several over the years including Elemis, byoma, Liz Earle…but this is just exceptional. My skin has never been better since using AB cleanser and products. Worth the price tag. Only thing I miss is the smell of the Elemis one.
