Description
The House of Hur Purifying Cleansing Balm is a sherbet-to-oil-to-milk texture cleansing treatment that melts away makeup, sunscreen, excess sebum and daily impurities while supporting the skin’s moisture balance. The brand highlights a hygienic grinder-type dispenser and key fruit extracts (wild strawberry, cherry fruit extract, and vitamin tree fruit extract) designed to regulate oil and keep skin feeling fresh and clean without residue.
Size: 50ML
Skin Type
Normal to oily/combination skin — because it focuses on balancing oil/sebum and removing buildups like sunscreen or makeup.
Skin that uses daily sunscreen or makeup — the balm texture is designed to break down oil-based residues effectively.
Skin with clogged pores/texture from sebum accumulation — the “purifying” label and sebum-controlling extracts support this.
Key Benefits
Deep cleansing: The sherbet-to-oil-to-milk texture helps dissolve makeup, sunscreen, sebum and residual impurities in one step.
Oil/sebum balancing: With extracts like wild strawberry, cherry fruit and vitamin tree (sea buckthorn / Hippophae) to help regulate oil levels and support clearer skin.
Hygienic dispenser: The grinder-style packaging is designed to reduce contamination, enabling controlled amount per use.
Maintains moisture: Despite being a “purifying” balm, the brand emphasizes that the skin is left soft and not stripped — important if barrier support is your aim

How to use
Evening (first cleansing step): On dry skin and with dry hands, use the included spatula or scoop to take an almond-sized amount of balm.
Massage: Apply the balm to your dry face and massage gently in circular motions for ~30-60 seconds, focusing especially on areas where you wear sunscreen/makeup or have oil buildup (e.g., T-zone).
Emulsify & Rinse: Add a little lukewarm water to your hands and continue the massage — the balm will emulsify (turn milky) — then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
**Follow with a gentle water-based cleanser (second cleanse) especially if you use sunscreen/makeup or have oily/combo skin (relevant for you).
Then follow with hydrating toner/essence → repair serum/cream — since your barrier is compromised with flaky dryness, ensure you follow with strong barrier support.
Frequency: Use nightly in your double-cleanse routine, or at least on days you wear heavy makeup/sunscreen. If your skin is particularly fatigued or sensitive, you may alternate.
Tip for your situation: Because your skin barrier is damaged/dry and occasional cystic acne: On nights you use this balm, you might keep the rest of your routine minimal (no strong actives) so your skin can recover.
