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).

Lovely
Within the category of oil based cleanser this is one of the best I’ve ever tried! Smells fantastic and the texture feels incredibly good on the skin. I have stopped using it because I don’t tolerate products with fragrance on my skin anymore (perioral deematitis) but for anyone without these problems - give it a try!

Luxurious
This is what I need after a tough day at work. The smell and the texture make me look forward to cleansing my face! It is a little pricey compared to other brands in the same category, but worth it IMO.

Pretty good
Good for the price point. It gets a lot of hype (from Caroline Hirons and Hyram etc.) but I wouldn't say it's any better than Clinique cleansing balm. I love the citrus scent and colour, but I find that I have to use quite a bit of it and it's a little hard to rub in (I think this isn't helped by the UK winter making it a bit colder and harder). In saying that though, one tub of this will last FOREVER. I've been using this every day for a year and I still haven't run out! It does slightly sting my eyes a bit after using too (but I have very sensitive eyes). I would say the Clinique one is better performing but this one is still great!!

Lovely cleansing balm
I’d put this up there with some of the GOAT cleansing balms like Elemis, Emma hardie, eve lom. Slightly cheaper than some of them too. Rich, pleasant texture, not hard to rub in, gets rid of all your makeup. Would buy again.

Not for me
I had an extremely bad reaction to this. It made my eyes so red raw and swollen, I couldn’t leave the house for a couple of days. Took a good week to get back to normal.

Living Cleansing Balm
This has a gorgeous texture, sorbet like texture that glides over the skin, emulsifies and rinses off easily, leaves skin super clean. But this is not why I repeat buy this and pay the hefty price tag. The reason is the smell, yes it's that good! It's this warm citrusy smell that I just can't describe, but for me seems to have mind altering properties! It really makes me look forward to taking my makeup off at the end of the day. I only wish I could find a second cleanse which smells as good as this though!

Wow!
I cannot say enough good things about this product! Everything about it I love and makes my face feel incredible. Wouldn’t usually push something with a fairly pricey tag but it’s worth every penny!

Best
Simply the best makeup remover I have ever tried. Skin fells good after double cleanse, whichever product I use as the second cleanser. I keep buying it again and again.

Enjoyable cleanser
I wanted to love this enough to give 5 stars but I was disappointed by the smell. I had read so many reviews of people Loving the smell but I found it a bit lacking...I found it to be quite a subtle smell. Other than that, it is a lovely cleanser, I mostly use it as a first cleanse in the evening, takes off makeup pretty well.
