Description

Duo The Cleansing Balm Black Repair EX 66g is a charcoal-infused cleansing balm for oily and congested skin β€” melting from a dense black balm into a silky oil during massage to dissolve makeup, sunscreen, and pore-clogging sebum, while activated charcoal components provide additional adsorption of oxidised oil and deep-pore impurities. The balm format allows extended contact time during massage for more thorough pore cleansing than lighter oil formulas.

  • Activated Charcoal Components β€” adsorb sebum, oxidised oil, and deep-pore impurities into the balm matrix during massage
  • Oil-based cleansing ingredients β€” dissolve waterproof makeup, Japanese SPF50+ formulas, and daily sebum efficiently
  • Balm-to-oil texture transition β€” firm texture at room temperature becomes a silky oil at skin temperature for friction-free application
  • Botanical extracts β€” maintain comfortable skin condition after rinsing
  • 66g β€” concentrated balm; a small amount covers the full face with the massage technique

How it works: Cleansing balms have a higher oil concentration than standard cleansing oils due to their wax and butter binders β€” this creates a thicker, more occlusive cleansing environment that maintains contact with pore surfaces for longer during massage. Extended contact allows more thorough dissolution of the film-forming polymers in waterproof makeup and the wax-based plugs in blackheads. The charcoal adsorbs the dissolved material into the balm rather than allowing it to float on the skin surface during rinsing.

DUO Cleansing Balm Black vs standard DHC or FANCL oil for congested skin: Oil cleansers rinse quickly after massage. Balm cleansers maintain contact longer due to their heavier consistency β€” providing more thorough penetration of oil into blackhead pores before emulsification. For oily skin with stubborn blackheads that don't respond to standard cleansing oils, the DUO balm's extended-contact, high-concentration oil environment is more effective per wash.

Known in Japan as DUO γ‚Ά クレンジングバーム ブラックγƒͺγƒšγ‚’EX 66g.
