If you've been dreaming of adding Then I Met You to your skin care rituals, chances are this is the formula that captured your attention. Earning glowing write-ups from the beauty buffs at Allure, Glamour and Refinery29, not to mention copious awards - you're looking at Caroline Hirons' Choice for 2020 Product of the Year - the Living Cleansing Balm melts away sunscreen, make up and excess sebum to reveal a perfectly refreshed, calm complexion. The supremely sensorial formula has hints of rosemary, persimmon and grapefruit to delight your senses as vitamin E and plant oils feed your face with antioxidants and fatty acids and free it from impurities. It was all so dull, then we met the Living Cleansing Balm...
A staple in the rituals - it transcends the passive act of routine - of beauty editors and skintellectuals alike, Then I Met You's Living Cleansing Balm effortlessly melts away make up, sunscreen and excess sebum while feeding your skin with antioxidants and fatty acids.
The ultimate first cleanse, this sorbet-soft balm is designed to be massaged into skin - pause to appreciate the sensorial notes of rosemary, persimmon and grapefruit - to easily melt away oil-based impurities. It's crafted from a luxurious blend of lightweight plant oils including sea buckthorn oil (adored for its abundance of fatty acids such as stearic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, and omega 6); olive oil (a nourishing antioxidant that boasts anti-inflammatory properties and supports your skin barrier); finally, grapeseed oil (an antioxidant-rich emollient that nourishes as it gently lifts impurities - cue round of applause). It doesn't end with that holy trinity of oils though - it's also laced with persimmon extract to protect your skin from free radicals and promote a brighter tone, plus vitamin E to promote a healthy, youthful finish. We're so glad we met this formula...
Olea Europaea Fruit Oil (Olive), Vitis Vinifera Seed Oil (Grape), Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Peg-20 Glyceryl Triisostearate, Peg-8 Isostearate, Cera Microcristallina, Hippophae Rhamnoides Fruit Oil, Ceresin, Synthetic Wax, Orbignya Oleifera Seed Oil, Diospyros Kaki Fruit Extract (Persimmon), Aniba Rosaeodora Wood Oil (Rosewood), Citrus Paradisi Peel Oil (Grapefruit), Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Oil (Rosemary), Tocopheryl Acetate, 1,2-hexanediol, Bis-diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2, Ethylene/Propylene Copolymer, BHT, Limonene
As there are differences between US and European labelling requirements, you may notice a slight variation amongst ingredient listings on differing sites. Limonene, for example is a compound found in Grapefruit Oil, and the UK requests it to be listed out separately. Then I Met You can assure you that all products boast the same formulation, with the same sorbet soft texture that everyone loves!
For the latest information, it is recommended to review the ingredient list printed on the packaging of the product prior to usage or consumption.
For the first step of your double cleanse, use the spatula to scoop a dime-sized amount onto dry skin and gently massage in circular motions. Add a splash of warm water to emulsify and remove oil-based impurities. Rinse thoroughly before moving to step two, a water-based cleanse with the Soothing Tea Cleansing Gel.
Transparency lies at the heart of our philosophy which is why we have partnered with tech-platform - Provenance - to cut through the industry "noise" and equip you with key facts that matter. A 'proof point' with a green tick means a third party has verified the accuracy of the statement whereas no green tick means that there isn't independent confirmation (yet!), but that the brand has still supplied substantiating evidence (which you can view yourself).

New favourite cleansing balm
My preference is a cleansing balm and this one is stunning. I had to buy in full size after receiving a sample. It glides onto skin and cleans effortlessly without stripping. It feels luxurious and leaves my skin soft, clean and nourished. A new fav.

Underwhelming
I tried this after reading a lot of good things about it, but unfortunately I found it really disappointing. I found it didn’t remove makeup as well as other cleaners and it made me skin feel a bit dry and dull. For the money there are better makeup removers

Completely obsessed
When I say this is the best cleansing balm I have ever used… it is so moisturising and nourishing on the skin, goes from a balm to an oil texture and then a milk when you add water. Amazing for make up removal and a first cleanse before going in with a lighter water cleanser. Also smells divine

Cleansing Balm
This is lovely - a little goes a long way and has a lovely citrus scent to it, nearly finished the pot now and it melts all my make up away gently. Have also used it as a facial massage balm which works well too

A great balm cleanser
I use this as a first cleanse every evening and it’s a joy! Gentle but effective and great at removing makeup.

Holy Grail
I first tried this cleanser from a Caroline Hirons kit. I had seen everyone going crazy for it and, as normally happens, thought it wouldn’t work for me. How wrong was I! It melts on to your skin, a little massage, a warm flannel to remove, repeat for evening cleanse, and your skin is soft, clean and glowing. A tub doesn’t last me long, maybe I use too much, but I will repeat purchase nonetheless.

Great cleansing balm
I love the scent of this. It's a great cleanser for removing makeup but isn't drying. I alternate between this and glow recipe

Jesus juice of a cleanser
Gets rid of everything! Sometimes if I'm lazy I will use this as first and second cleanse as it's gentle yet so effective. Not all cleansers I can do that with. Smells incredible as in for me not too strong at all. Just love this. Got it with 20% off and didn't need it but no way I was passing that offer up so now I have a mini stash!

Practically edible
I love the smell of this so much. And it melts like a dream. Expensive, yes, so I always stock up when special offers are on. Don’t buy it so there’s more left for me…!
