The Banila Co Clean It Zero Nourishing Cleansing Balm carries the highest oil load in the Clean it Zero line, so squalane, safflower and evening primrose stay behind as lipids while waterproof makeup and sunscreen come off. Banila Co reworked its best-known format here for skin that needs the cleanse to give something back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSqualane replaces the lipids a cleanse removes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Squalane is close in structure to the skin's own sebum, so it sits within the barrier rather than on top of it. Skin feels supple after rinsing instead of tight.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe oil load is higher here than in the Original formula:\u003c\/strong\u003e Safflower, sunflower and evening primrose oils sit at a greater concentration, which is what makes this version more cushioning on dry and mature skin. The trade-off is a slightly slower rinse.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRoyal jelly places this outside a plant-only routine:\u003c\/strong\u003e Royal Jelly Extract is animal-derived, and sits alongside ginseng root and berry, acerola and bamboo extracts. In a rinse-off format these shape how the cleanse feels rather than delivering a lasting effect.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTexture \u0026amp; Finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the densest of the Clean it Zero balms, slower to melt and more cushioned across the skin than the Original. It emulsifies with water and rinses clean, taking slightly longer to clear than lighter formats, and it carries a light fragrance.

This version carries the highest oil concentration in the range plus squalane, safflower and evening primrose, so it cushions more and rinses slightly slower. The Original is the better pick for combination and oily skin; this one is built for skin that runs dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can a product you rinse off actually moisturise?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Not in the way a moisturiser does. What a richer balm does is offset the lipid loss that cleansing causes, so skin starts the rest of the routine from a better place rather than a depleted one. That difference is real, and it is not the same thing as hydration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Do I need a second cleanser after this?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Not as a default. On an ordinary day it is a complete cleanse. Follow with a water-based cleanse after heavy makeup or a thickly applied high-SPF sunscreen, then continue with toner or essence, actives, moisturiser, and a facial oil or balm last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDry skin tends to look for the fix in the moisturiser, when the cleanse is where the damage was done.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sn-explore-more\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExplore the \u003ca class=\"sn-ilink\" href=\"\/en-ca\/collections\/cleansers\"\u003ecleansers collection\u003c\/a\u003e for second-cleanse options to follow this balm, or the \u003ca class=\"sn-ilink\" href=\"\/en-ca\/collections\/dry-skin\"\u003edry skin collection\u003c\/a\u003e for barrier-supportive follow-ups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca class=\"sn-ilink\" href=\"\/en-ca\/collections\/cleansers\"\u003eCleansers\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca class=\"sn-ilink\" href=\"\/en-ca\/collections\/dry-skin\"\u003eDry skin\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca class=\"sn-ilink\" href=\"\/en-ca\/collections\/banila-co\"\u003eMore from Banila Co\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Banila co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50907452113230,"sku":"BC03-CNCB100","price":35.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/5057\/0062\/files\/BC03-CNCB100.png?v=1778671450","url":"https:\/\/skinnomid.com\/en-ca\/products\/banila-co-clean-it-zero-nourishing-cleansing-balm","provider":"Skin-Nomad","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
