Cleansing is the cornerstone of great skincare, and for me, it’s far more than a task, it’s a ritual. There’s nothing like the moment when a brilliant cleansing balm melts away the day, leaving your skin fresh and your senses indulged. Enter Alpha-H Melting Moment Cleansing Balm, a formula that combines efficacy with pure pleasure. If you’re partial to balms, or love a whisper of citrus in your routine, this one’s a must-try.
What is it?
A cleansing balm designed to remove makeup, sunscreen and dirt.
What Do I Think?
This balm works exactly as a good cleansing balm should, transforming from a rich, buttery texture into a luxurious oil upon contact with dry skin. It effortlessly lifts away SPF, long-wear makeup, and urban grime, even tackling stubborn waterproof mascara without a hint of pulling or scrubbing. A quick rinse or warm cloth sweep emulsifies it into a gentle milk, leaving your skin perfectly cleansed but never tight or stripped.
But what sets this balm apart is its thoughtful formula. Australian Wild Orange Leaf brings amino acids to support your skin barrier, while Grapeseed Oil’s antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties calm and protect. Australian Sandalwood Seed Oil, rich in fatty acids, helps repair and soothe, while Bisabolol reduces redness and locks in moisture.
And let’s talk scent, because it’s glorious. A zesty blend of Tangerine, Yuzu, and Vanilla lingers subtly, striking a perfect balance between uplifting and comforting. It’s as if someone bottled a Terry’s Chocolate Orange.
Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, this balm is available in both full and travel sizes which I love for those who want to try before committing.
Ultimately, Alpha-H Melting Moment Cleansing Balm is luxury in a jar. It turns the mundane into something indulgent, leaving skin soft, clean, and radiant. I’ll be keeping this one close, and not just for the cleansing – sniffing the jar has become a nightly habit too.

Would I recommend?
Yes. If you love a cleansing balm that invigorates your senses and cleanses away every scrap of makeup and sunscreen, then look no further.
