My favourite cleansing balm for make-up removal is £15 off for Amazon Prime Day 2025

For those unacquainted with the iconic formula, it has a texture like sorbet and transforms into a silky oil under the heat of your fingers. Unlike a gel cleanser, the pro-collagen balm allows you to give your lashes a massage without the fear of stinging or irritation.

If you’re a mascara wearer, that means no dragging a micellar-soaked cotton pad over your face and no post-wash panda eyes – you can simply sweep away the fibres with a warm flannel. While essential oils should be avoided if you’re pregnant, this formula is largely calming thanks to its key ingredient: padina pavonica.

Though its name sounds like a spell out of Harry Potter, this saltwater algae is known for its hydrating, skin-softening properties. It offers excellent protection against UV and pollution, and it can even have anti-ageing efficacy, as it helps to protect your natural collagen stores.

When testing the best cleansers, Ella Duggan found that the balm can “aid skin’s elasticity and create a visibly smoother complexion.” After use, Ella loved that her “skin felt smooth and was left with a velvety texture.” Whether you know someone deserving of a pampering or fancy a little self-care, this 30 per cent price drop certainly warrants a treat.
